Thank you for the responses. I think that the plan I'm going to follow is to try switch over to a business degree and spend any free time I have to do some portfolio work and post here on Polycount so I can improve and get an industry standard portfolio. If the course-swap doesn't work, I'll consider the games design…
I'm back, along with pictures of the Inner Beast's progress as it evolves into something that is fueled by the malice and carnage in every berserker's soul. There's a beast lurking in all of us... Alright, enough of the dramatic talk, lets get down to the progress that has been made in the last 2 days... Inner Beast (Work…
thats just a floating value representation, in the end its stored as a 8bit short value (integer from 0-255). What unity does in the background is simply multiplying that number with 255 and convert it to a integer value. For web development especially in the area of Flash Hexadecimal values are very speedy to work with…
Regardless of how much one's opinion is different than yours, and how much you'd like to posit theory in your arguments against theirs, it is important to reply in a manner befitting the person who asked you. ""that painting that you did of that warrior with an axe is okay for young people, but you should paint something…
Alright. Through the process of trial and error, I have finally built a low poly around my high poly! Parts that move or are going to detach are separate. The parts that are all one piece are the stock, main body, pistol grip, and trigger guard. The reason I made the accessory rail and heat shield separate is because I…
I don't think it's the placement of the lights so much as the type; a directional light or even better a spot light would work there. Overall, your outdoor scenes are over lit. The harsh white background, especially when coupled with the diagonal lines, is really hard on the eyes. I'd kill the slideshows and just let the…
I do believe you know as well as I do, that what you said is nonsense. Let me swap a few terms to show how. Though, I am curious as to what you mean by forms. Haven't heard that term bandied about before in discussions about 3D modelling. So my first post still stands. If folks are curious, I am wanting to learn how to…
It's going to be a side view for characters, though it'll be a top-down game (not 3/4 view). As for the Nazi symbols, we're going to be swapping those out for iron crosses instead just to make sure it has more universal sales. However, the tone of the game is supposed to be a little lighter than heavy. A kinda gung ho,…
Thanks for the replies. I'm not terribly good at rigging and the anticipation of rigging and trying to make sure I've done everything I could topology wise to make it straight forward I think causes me to spend much more time than I should. Being I am working alone on this stuff, all of these time intensive practices of…
Pick a project and do it - don't expect tutorials for everything. The learning comes from solving the problems you come across on your own. You will get more help if you are, say, modeling a gun and you hit a snag halfway through than you would if you come to the boards asking "how do I model a gun" When I think back to…
