Re: Speed Model Thread TIMELESS AND DATELESS FOR UNTIL THE END OF TIME
Random looking speed-model from a new faster process I started using for making hard surface stuff in Blender: (this topic should have more hard surface stuff) And a sculpt: -
Re: [Portfolio] - Simon Fuchs, (Senior Environment Artist, Crysis 2)
Hey pumbaa, they were placed using the smart duplicate script from ticket01. Basically it allows you to project them onto the geometry using splines as guides and an underlaying surface as the control surface. -
Re: Amazon Spent Big Bucks On Crytek's Engine
Some things that game engines barely or don't even consider: Motion Blur Subdivision surfaces Displacement Fur and Hair Post-processing Sub-surface scattering Volumetrics Efficient memory usage -
Re: Sketchbook: Vlad Costin
thanks folks ^^ ripper351 - for the sweater surface I used surface noise in Zbrush with a custom alpha in UV mode. Also I made UVs in UV Master plugin in ZBrush for this piece of mesh. -

Re: Baking hi poly to low poly

Re: 3D Coat - have we done this yet?
that was quite easy in claytools you could just create a spline onto the surface and use that to chamfer the edges, as you felt the surface it was reaaaly easy to apply the splines where you wanted them -
Stepped Gradient Effect
I'm looking for a way to break a gradient into a variable number of steps. The effect I'm going for is a shale like flaky rock surface. Right now I'm using a curve but that's less than elegant workflow-wise. I'd like to be able to use a dynamic gradient and have the steps controlled by a stepped gradient that can be… -
