Re: When making a scene in UE4, how much decals is too much decals?
They can get pretty expensive, pretty fast but it really depends on how you're using decals, how big the bounding boxes are, what they effect and the biggest factor is how complex the shaders are. I think if they overlap, they can be more costly also. I believe it causes any mesh that is hit by a decal to be rendered… -
Re: How has your Life Changed in the Past Decade?
Here we go then: - Lived in Kyoto for a year - Graduated university with a degree in Japanese and THEN decided I wanted to work as a videogame artist (erk!) - Moved back in with my parents for a year and taught myself 3ds Max and Photoshop - Went travelling around SE Asia with my girlfriend (now wife) - Managed to get a… -
Re: Sketchbook: Rockstar6
Nice progress on the environment! The paintover looks very interresting. Only the roof in the foreground looks very unfinished, especially the sharktooth ending of it looks strange. Doesn't it usually break of in a fairly straight line at the supportbeams? (might be wrong, im not really an environmental guy) Some refs i… -
Re: [Training] + [Dump] - Ace Post
Your Golem seems wimpy and like he is not steady how he is standing. He also loos more like he would be made out of wood then out of clay and rock. He needs feet, even if it just a much wider base at the feet and/or a few rocks that act as toes. I found this Golem sketch on DA… -
Re: Thompson M1A1 (Nub Version)
You're on the right track. Texture-wise, I'd suggest you play around with the specular maps some more. Have a look at some wood-grain alphas like this one: http://www.creativecrash.com/system/photos/000/011/555/11555/big/screen1.jpg?1251121141 You could also use that to develop a normal map on your model. If you have a… -
Re: Houdini 15 feature list
You know what, I started with Houdini around 2008, and yes, it's hard application. Prime example, DOPS and CHOPS. They are really hard. Even with couple years under your belt in other apps, you are still looking at another 2-3 years of learning Houdini. Do not fool yourself that just because you can do wonders already in… -
Re: Maya 2009: Split Edge
crazymatt, that sounds bananas, or rather, driving the car to get across the street.... no offense of course... unless i too have just totally misunderstood what KP is trying to do here. chronic's method is how i do it, it is just a difference between selection methods. separate works on objects that have been combined… -
Re: Castle Crashers
if i remember correctly the save game bug was around in alien hominid HD when it first came out as well. I've seen quite a few other bugs too. I have yet to be able to get ANY online game working. I've also seen a few monsters get bugged out which caused me to have to restart some levels. not really major, but annoying.… -
Re: building a new pc... have some questions for the technical minded.
You have heard lies, they still have the same problems with drivers. I own a 5770, and i have driver issues since i bought it. I'm running the catalyst 10.12 and i'm frustrated with the graphic card. A friend bought a 5870 the last year and was more intelligent than me, he returned the crap to the vendor. There is no… -
Re: Maya Autosave?
Hey guys, I'm new to this forum. And actually, despite my field, this is one of the first forums I've ever joined. So I apologize if my etiquette lacks from time to time. If I do anything taboo just let me know! Plus, I've been using Mel to introduce myself to programing. So I probably mess up things in that department.…
