Re: Dragon Whelp WIP
ah yes.. and as for the reference.. i just recently bought the Cinematic Art of World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.. i borrowed some of the anatomical reference from profile views of Sindragosa's skeletal studies.. so perhaps i should look further into translating the anatomy from a fully matured dragon to a baby a… -
Re: Why after so many years Painter still doesn't have an adequate "roll" brush
oh, sorry. I forgot about lazy brush button . Thanks a lot Jerc. A lot better when lazy mouse is on but still not as pixel to pixel crisp as in some vector editors. And set up is really painful. I loved "skeletal" strokes from 25 years old "Expression" vector editor. You could simply add 10 pictures to a vector stroke and… -
Is it possible to load/unload level chunks that overlap each other?
I've read about the level streaming systems but I don't know if it can do what I want to achieve. I'd like to have chunks of meshes with lights, skeletal meshes, etc. that can load in and out, but also occupy the same space in a level. The reason I want this is so I can incorporate non-euclidean geometry to my level… -
Re: Manny Calavera
I agree it needs to be more angular, but I want it to be closer to the concepts, not so much the game version (seeing as his head is basicly a cube in the original :P). The problem is that the concepts vary a lot on the points you guys just mentioned. (The streak-sizes especially, though indeed they seem a bit long now),… -
Re: Sci-Fi Subway [WIP]
Blockout looks cool, if there are windows to outside on the left and ride sides I'd say try cutting those in too, since it'll probably change how you perceive the positive / negative space in the image. The lighting is obviously still early days but it's looking pretty nice so far. Sometimes I find that putting in even a… -
Re: Any Other "Big" Engines Comin'
Interesting! I wonder if this is true in all licensed implementations? Or did they just cripple support for dynamic skeletal geometry after the pre-release? ( for instance... after the posted 2008 pre-release demo which seems to clearly suggest GI illumination on the character geometry driven by a movable light no less?? )… -
Re: SoftImage: ActorX .psk export crash; need help
Meh, ActorX for Softimage is, hem, full of bugs. Not updated exactly. I have got a lot of problems with it, specially with skeletal mesh (a lot of time my faces was inverted). If you can, use the fbx instead. I don't have Softimage with me now, but maybe you can send me your file for I look a little. How did you do your… -
Re: Maya to Max - Internal Polygon Reriangulation
Sorry to bump this thread, but I've been having issues with this. I need to give a client a max file which they will then rig and export to Unreal as a skeletal mesh. Problem is that I work in Maya and these triangulation issues result in different display of normal maps depending on which program I export from. My… -
Unreal isn't reading my exported normals?
I've been playing around with medium poly modeling and face weighted normals, and I ran into a strange issue. So I have a model with edited normals that I exported from 3DS Max. I exported with all the combinations possible from Max with smoothing groups, split-per-vertex normals, and the tangents and binormals export… -
New UDK video on Eat3d
http://eat3d.com/free/maya_udk_1 http://eat3d.com/maya_udk_2 I recently had the pleasure of creating three videos for the free section in Eat3d. Part 1- Maya to UDK using FBX Part 2- Setting up your Character Package including the Anim Set, initial Anim Tree, Physics Asset and Skeletal Mesh. Part 3- Setting up the AnimTree…
