Re: Some tips for a beginner?
Programs are many and most of them can do similar things. Get trial versions and try them out to see what fits your taste. Noone here can say what program is the right one for you...have a look at the Wiki for a list of tools available. Tutorials are great for learning the basic techniques, but nothing teaches you better… -
Re: 3dsmax - HIDE SUB OBJECTS ?
Well what I mainly don't like is that it's impossible to tell that a mesh has hidden parts, especially because it also tends to affect the bounding box corners Max displays on selection. You can even go so far to have a mesh that becomes completely invisible and thus unselectable, even though technically visible on an… -
Re: DISCUSSION: Is game art enough for a videogame to be "timeless"?
I disagree. Super Mario Bros. and its family of pixelated games have timeless visuals, almost specifically because of the highly constrained technology. It seems like most people feel like early (or even contemporary) 3D game art will somehow be different and become forever obsolete as the new hotness rolls around. But I… -
Re: what is Maya's Biped?
what kind of control and finetuning are you referring to? no, you can't create a six-legged biped with two heads and four arms from biped parts alone. but of course you can add other objects to the hierarchy as you wish. in my book: - animation control is pretty good: no stupid ik/fk switches: just grab a bone, rotate or… -
Re: Hi Poly Attempt-Jaggir (And a Request for Advice).
From the stuff I have been doing at home I generally ignore the lower poly model at the start. The reason for this is that I don't want to be constrained by the final low poly piece when working on the high poly version. I'd say that for the concept you chose the Zbrush part is quite a while away, and you can do most of it… -

ATLAS - heavy assault tank
Hello! This is another tank that I did for the same project as the Aquilon-7. The tank together with the second pack of cannons and a ram contains ~ 46k trigons. I used blender to create mesh, modo for bevel backing, and 3D coat to create textures & UV. Artstation also contains more renders, shooting animations and… -
Re: 3dsmax: Transfer Meshes Between Scenes
BFF did work great, but has gathered a bit of dust since then. Another way would be to save the source Max file, then create a Container or Xref in the target scene. Everytime you save the source, the target Container would be updated. If Xref, IIRC you have to manually refresh the target . -
Re: TRON-VEHICLE-Daniel
As was suggested I reworked the arms a bit and I think this looks a alot better then the tiny arms he had before:thumbup:. Let me know what you think:poly142:. I've also spent a bit of time on the Uvw's, since we are allowed to use two 512x512 maps I decided to split the model up in two maps, one containing the character… -
