Man. Someone talking about how they met their wife through Pokemon makes me feel like I'm 80. And I'm only 28. I'm getting married later this year. But if I had met the same type of girl, she would have been into magic the gathering (when it started) or something. But I still think that's a cool as fuck story. But I still…
SSAO = ? SS ambient occ, sure ss? sub surface? EDIT: screen surface AO So SSAO is based on the geometries relation to the camera and not its position in world space? Is that it? And those when we have a window overlooking, say, nothing, the inside edges of that window would get this SSAO magic and not being entirely…
Grats man, I was in fear I might see the 3D for food avatar back on the street. and also grats on finding the best gif on the intertubes. hard on sparkle casting is the only way to cast magic. Those nay-sayers above are always casting limps and so they know not the splendor of a rock hard spandex spell rolling off the top.…
@ perna: hmm ok cool, i do have some extremes in my bake, i will try lowering the contrast. do you think you could do a paint over or explain further what you mean by the bounce lighting you mentioned? I appreciate the critique and input! @FullSynch: honestly I just made them up haha :) they aren't from anything specific,…
Really great work, but somehow on the second picture of the ingame ones (and the other ones except the first one) something seems to be seriously fucked up with the game's lod textures especially when you look at the texture quality of the first image (also on the first one the gloss is near perfect) not so on the others…
While it does make the "suits" more money, Poop and I happen to work for a company that has a history of actually paying royalties. More money for the publisher means more royalties, so we will get rewarded if the games sell better because of it. However, I see this more as a great way to actually strongarm the rental…
Yeah man! Looking really great! Everything went a little too fast though, I really wanted to see the finals a bit longer. All the weapons looked awesome. Good job man! **EDIT: Forgot, I liked it when it was no music actually. If you want to have any, I think you should go with some magical ambiance or something. I also…
[ QUOTE ] Its a neat way to finish the film. It seems unfortunate they left it until the end of the credits where few will see it. [/ QUOTE ] More unfortunate is that they cast Keanu Reeves as John Constantine and set the film in Los Angeles. Jude Law, London, Garth Ennis script. *poof*, I've magically just doubled that…
It looks as if the shoulders on your model aren't broad enough, i think. or maybe the helmet is too big? I can't tell. But the concept makes him look a little bulkier in that area to me. Not a big deal though, your progress is fantastic! i think the boots work, if by some crazy magic he could walk on the seabed or…
Most of the game particle systems I've worked with go up to 256 but not really beyond that. Most try to stay in the 32-64px range, or they use procedural materials, but it depends on the particle type. As for the particle frame count, it really depends on the effect. I've worked with some systems that actually run at 15…
