Re: render to texture problem
Good point Eric, I'd forgotten about that. The only thing to note there is that it switches you to edit mesh (or at least it does in the version I'm using. 9 I think). Not a big deal, but worth noting in case you need to be in edit poly and forget to switch back ;) Interesting trivia: STL is short for STereoLithography,… -
Re: degree vs. portfolio, "falling back on a degree"
In all my interviews for games jobs (about 5 over the past 9 years), my degree never came up as a point of discussion. Addressing your parents' point of having a degree to fall back on: I don't think that philosophy ever applies to any artistic line of work. It's all portfolio based. I'm not trying to discourage you from… -
Re: Modeling: Maya Vs. Max
Yeah you learn the hard way. Whenever I mirror something in Maya and Negative scale it I always reverse normals out of habit... I remember when I use to have no idea what was going on.. It will do strange things (especially when trying to select edge loops) Or when you generate normal maps and half the map is… -
Re: Transition and industry questions...
Thank you Ruz. I apologize if I was rude earlier. I hate to be associated with artwork of such low standards to be honest (obviously gets me defensive), but man's got eat. I agree with all your points, and I am in the process of aplying some of them now to the site. The content will have to change over the next 9 months,… -
Re: Fallout 3
Mongrelman, thank you! lol @ Gavimage, I was addicted to whiskey and vodka for a while. Needed the strength bonus to carry all my stuff back to a trader. Haven't even used one drug yet and I'm level 9 =/. I find I always collect stuff in case I might need it and never use it because I never end up needing it to complete… -

Re: In the market for a Lap top (any input)
i've got the xps m1710 4 gigs of ram super sharp lcd 512 mb 7950gtx and core 2 duo. Great service by dell too. Can't go wrong with them with their awesome warranty. I'm running Vista Ultimate 64 bit and have had no issues with max 8, 9, 2008 or 2009. Maybe i'm just lucky or maybe it's just people don't know how to… -
Re: So, how has your life turned out?
[ QUOTE ] When I was young and would like with my friends about what I want to do when I'm older (I'm talking 8, 9, 10 years old...) it involved "I wanna make video games!" but that was more of a pie-in-the-sky thought. You? [/ QUOTE ] I was the same way.. I used to draw out my own mario levels on copy paper. I also wanted… -
Re: Already baked model, to new topology? Rebaked.
UHM, it was some challenge on artstation i took part of and the limit max was 100k, i agree though i think now a days it is fine but i keep hearing less is best still. I sort of knew the color situation might be unwelcomed, i agree if it is not me using it i dislike seeing it also. (i was just putting it to use) The recent… -
Re: How to create realistic mountain ranges?
I have not used world creator for a minute, but it looks like newer version they've added some sculpting brushes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhrNne70yII&list=PL-T0P8fE0hYrulft9PLKV90UxxfH0AH-m&index=9 i think similar was there previously in versions i used, but it was more basic. But you can essentially do the same…
