Re: Is Level Design Enough?
Designing and texturing your own assets is Environment Art To dress/construct levels with environment assets is, in general, World Art/Building To design the player experience by modifying the playspace is Level Design. So if you're going for level design, it's totally fine to reuse assets. Designers want to see design… -
Re: 3ds Max: Maintaining spherical width when turbosmoothing?
Ah, my workflow is all wrong. I should be making the hi-poly first (thereby negating any 'shrinkage effect' turbo might have), and making the low poly from that. And as you point out, polycount doesn't matter for the bake's lowpoly cage -use as much geo as you have to to rectify baking errors etc. Thanks for the help EC… -
Re: Dota 2 + Marmoset Toolbag 2, interest level?
Re: TB2 on Steam. At the very least, you would be widening your net by also having TB2 on Steam. Selling TB2 on Steam would open the visibility of the software to all UGC content creators and developers who don't otherwise visit community sites like Polycount. You can target the Dota 2 artists to start, but there are a… -
Re: [Prop] Sonic-esque critter container
great feedback guys! I see what you mean about the polycount. I was trying to retain as much detail from the high poly as possible as well as assist with the normal baking process Details held up quite well. But agreed, polycount is too high. I'm going back through and doing some cleanup now. Also, I pushed the normal map… -
Re: Josh Hano 2009 Demo Reel (Low-mid Poly Characters)
I didn't want to download the video since it was so large and I'm very impatient so I clicked the link in your sig. It took me to Polycount. :/ I thought it was going to take me to your portfolio page. I've been had. :poly122: maybe I've been hacked! :poly122: EDIT: I just moused over and saw you typed the polycount URL… -
Re: Create a low poly sphere
Regular sphere sucks, subdivcube is easy to texture, manual optimization is a good compromise between texturing/usability/polycount, geosphere is lowest polycount. If you want to go even lower, a 2-segmented icosa-based geosphere will run only 80 triangles, a 3-segmented octa-based one takes only 72 triangles and a 2… -
Re: OpenArena
There's another project already taking polycount resources and requesting for GPL (FreeQ3). My goals are from scratch :P Besides, we already have plenty of weapons working ingame and most of the ones on polycount are designed on copyrighted concepts anyway (Aliens, Outcast, Warhammer, etc) Btw, some free licenses, like… -

Re: Smart Normals - What's that?
I did not watch the complete video, but from what i understand, it's basically editing the vertex normal of the low poly mesh to reduce shading that we generally see. The terminology is what confused me, but this technique is being used for a while now and is pretty effective too. You can read up more about it in Polycount… -
Re: Indie Jobs where to look for...?
There are many group collaborations all over the internet, even on polycount. :) What companies want is experience of working in a manageable team and with a portfolio to express how you used these skills. Look through the request forum on the main polycount board; http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=106730 Not…
