Hi everyone I currently take an online workshop with Gui Pu of handpainted 3D characters. I mostly work on environment modeling and texturing... and I have hard times working on some human shape setting elements, such as figures on coins or statues. So I decided to take this course to enhance my anatomy as well as…
Hey, So I just turned 26 a few days ago and I'm planning to job hunt pretty soon (probably in a month or two) once I finish up my demo reel. I did a round of job hunting approximately a year and got nothing in terms of game jobs. I did get an unrelated 3D job that I'm hoping will boost my CV. Now I know ageism is a thing…
Yep I'm doing it as you described. I actually reseted Xform for the model, unchecked Fade (previously I unchecked Fade in Zapplink) in Project Master and it is usable. Sometimes I get few white pixels but It is usable now ;p I almost gave up too soon. Thx. The last issue I have is that before I use Projection Master I…
UE4 certainly has energy conservation, its built in to the roughness compontent. Tighter highlights are more concentrated and intense, while darker highlights are more spread out and dim (the same amount of light is hitting the surface, its just a question of how its scattered). The metalness workflow essentially has…
@Elijah, implemented a lot of your critiques as best as possible. Super good call regarding the wheat shapes. It'd fitting well into the ground texture, I believe. More blockouts and texture pattern testing. Still can't find a satisfactory silhouette / shape that will communicate plains grass repeatedly and over a large…
jackablade: your right! the mask comes out when they do that swoosh movement with there hand over there face. I have no idea where the mask actually comes from, but it happens so fast i didnt bother to make it workable. when we animate him, we will probably just do a gradient on the opacity =) the horozontal line was on…
That's good to know. The important thing is to find a workable solution that fits your needs. And I know how hard this can be in conjunction with existing Flash 3D engines. Each one handles external files differently. One of the nice things about DAE files is that you can always open them and tweak them manually. Of…
You can't pass legislation that will MAKE people pay attention. To ANYTHING. Oxynary : Political connections? Here's the most chilling thing I've read on the matter yet. This is Allen varney writing in a past issue of The Escapist: [ QUOTE ] First, the industry must quiet the "Hot Coffee" noise while it crafts a new image.…
Im using torque, and from an artist perspective I spend about as much time finding and fixing bugs in the export process than I do actually making usefull assets. And from a code perspective, we basically will have to roll our own lighting, occlusion, etc. The bundled stuff simply doesn't meet the needs of the project.…
Necro! My girlfriend got herself a 550D while I was in San Francisco, and I've been playing with it over the past week. I'd like to get a couple of nice lenses soon, but for now the kit lens that came with it (EF 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 IS) is proving to be surprisingly effective. A bonus (arguable?) is that it has pretty nice…
