Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
Looks good. No use saying it now, but like alot of people, you'll see why going from b/w to colour is such a big waste of time :) One thing i'd like to point out, is that add wrinkles where they are needed and dont add them just for the heck of it. Cant really point any out atm. More of advice than crit really. -
Re: Lighting low poly chars 4 render
i am in complete agreeance with Vig. i would recommend staying away from high intensity (colored or b/w) backgrounds for your renders. there is a lighting script on scriptspot ( http://www.scriptspot.com/scripts/web_upload/Alexandre%20OLIVEIRA/New%20E-light%202.0a.ms ) i use that script with a simple 3-point scheme and i… -
Re: Videogames and Pirating
sarcasm is the verbal form of irony. Piracy on the 360 is not denting their sales estimates. 360 pirates with modded consoles are not part of their market. Neither are people who buy pirated games in china or w/e stereotype you want. PC piracy is very different, their core userbase is pirating instead of buying. It's not… -
Re: Big chunky bastard (now with more lowpoly fun)
Spent a bit of time doing up SW and W facing poses (second pic is at 2x): and a quick rotation showing the three facings so far. threw 'em on a shot of the enviro, just for kicks. Still haven't redone the enviro textures. I'll probably have to zoom in a tad closer, too, since they look like oversized people now. edit:… -

Re: Photogrammetry environment assets creation learning
Not for the stump, but for smaller, movable objects it helps to place it on or next to something with an unique pattern. E.g. a newspaper. This gives Agisoft a good source to recognize patterns, which it uses to calculate how the images overlap. Here are 2 great resources to get better results:… -
Re: Support
Also once had an error with 3do which caused a black bar across the bottom of the viewer but I haven't been able to reproduce it yet. amd 7870 w/ 13.11 drivers. Wasn't a huge deal but thought I'd mention it. This isn't specific to the quixel suite but since ddo can make use of it; what options are there for making a… -
Re: How do I improve?
Really practice hard. As well practice smart. Feng Zhu School on Youtube does a great before and after video of his students and the biggest thing he stresses are the fundamentals. So take some time (okay take a lot of time) AND really get into the fundamentals of w/e it is you want to be great at. Modeling Texturing… -
Re: Urge to uninstall Maya rising...
I had it happen to me in max a few times. Usually once it dumped I had no problem just restarted the system. That was also on a 64bit win 7 w/ an i7. You could always save the current scene and un/re install. Since it is only happening in some scenes sounds like you need to cleanup. Broken math never failed to crash max…
