Re: Some criticism on my new passion model
I think this looks great so far! It would help to show your model shaded, rather than only in white/wireframe. For example here's a great way to show off subdivision surface models: https://polycount.com/discussion/63361/information-about-polycount-new-member-introductions/p1#make Also, this article is an excellent read on… -
Re: 3DS Max - 2009-2012 - Custom Bring Around?
Are you saying you won't read the manual because some of it is wrong? You should always be wary of everything you read, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't read. First thing I do is start playing with the app itself, see what it does. Then I look at the help file, since it's usually the most informative resource. Then… -
Maya to 3dsmax
Brad “Professor Poly” Wascher put together another course, this time for Maya users looking to learn 3dsmax You might remember a few months ago that Brad put together a course that helped 3dsmax users acclimate to Maya?

Re: Which software do you hate the most to work with (for whatever reason)?
Maya for sure. Its the only tool in my pipeline that feels like software from 20 years ago. * Its unreliable in performing basic actions without potentially crashing or breaking what i'm working on. * There's no reason for the history because that's just going to break things down the line so you end up clearing it after… -
Re: How did you react to landing your first game dev job?

Getting the gig through my portfolio. I was freaking out. I was a huge Nintendo fanboy at the time, and I felt like I was enemy territory. I tried to… -
Re: "Valve shouldn't allow custom effects for workshop-submitted sets"
Im pretty sure if valve just split effects from items and made them their own thing you can attach to characters this would fix this noobery going on right now. Also making a decent tutorial and guideline for fx artists would be useful. So people cant break the colour schemes of heroes of break the look of their spells. As… -
Re: Cartoon style textures
Get a drawing tablet. Even if it is a cheap one, a sub-par drawing tablet will still give you better results than trying to paint with a mouse. Painting with a mouse has always, and will always be crap. Start off with broad color blocks. Decide which major colors you want where on the model, and paint them in. Don't be… -
Re: Problem with Max...plz help!
It's the little white/grey button with a T on it, just about the middle of the top toolbar. Just to the left of the Little magnet(snaps toggle) button. If that doesn't work check your key bindings you might have switched it to something else because it shouldn't be deactivating your viewport if you have the editor open and… -
Re: [Portfolio] JT White - Weapon Artist
homrighausen3d: The text alignment should be fixed now. St.Sabath: That was probably due to looping and cursor detection, I disabled looping, so it shouldn't be an issue now. Racer445: MK23: Right on, I'll work on the lighting some more. MP5: Thanks, I'll do what I can to work the mats a bit more to see what I can do about… -
