Re: How many Polycounters use Twitter?
Like a public forum amirite? But seriously, facebook is nice sometimes, for getting back in touch with old friends or for keeping contact with friends/family who don't use IM services when you're out and about. Twitter seems like it's only useful for people that really need to get messages out to a lot of people quickly,… -
Re: Rich Diamant using Substance Designer
I'm sorry to piss on your cornflakes, but I really don't see the big deal with Substance Designer - it seems you can do the same stuff in PS and something like Xnormal really quickly without needing to graph maps or any of the functions that were showcased in the video. Of course I should probably give it more of a chance… -
Re: Is there any demand for a game asset focused modeling tool?
I think... It would be great to have a piece of modeling software designed from the ground up to suit the games industry. Look at how quickly the substance tools have taken over from the status quo of photoshop. I would love to drop the overpriced bullshit that is Autodesk, in favour of a more directly tailored tool that… -
Re: Norwegian style winter castle environment
Looking cool, especially that shot from the air. Just 2 things that catch my eye: -The scale off the floor seems a bit large in the closeup. -The wear on the side of the individual stones looks to "painted", like you took a small brush and just quickly made some fast strokes on the edges and I feel like it drags the… -
Re: How Do You Make a Flow Map?
Yes, the biggest issue to consider is performance. However, it's not "crazy" expensive and also depends on your hardware. In MK9, UV distortion was utilized extensively throughout the game (ps3/360). When it came time for us to port the game to the Vita, we quickly learned that it wasn't viable performance wise. As soon as… -
Re: I need a faster/better way to bake slection maps
it wasn't working since you just applied different materials to the faces via the ddo materials, my method is still different. works with vertex colour, than xn bakes. if I have time after wrk today I will dig up the script I made for this. its something I made that allows me to quickly assign vertex colour to face… -
Re: 3ds Max 2016 VS. Maya 2016 for modeling?
I think you can still purchase Soft as part of the Entertainment Creation Suite, but if you want an old version of XSI (pre-Autodesk), then no, you can't buy one. It's kinda worthless now, as there's no way to generate licenses anyway. Autodesk stopped support of the older versions a while back and warned people at the… -
Re: Slaughter House Assets - Mihai Nicula
Sorry man. I don't see your point. He refined the tire. He is looking to refine the bongos. What are you getting at? The guy has finals pretty soon and he is basically doing assets quickly and will get back to refining them after he passes. I mean if you want to hate on a guy for that, that's your choice. I think it's just… -
Re: how can i make this kind of braid in zbrush?
Make a cylinder, unwrap uvs, apply surface noise of the braid pattern That's just a theory, you need to make braid alpha for this OR Use Insert MultiMesh by modeling 3 pieces and using them as a stroke to quickly make the braid. You'll need to use modeling software for this.… -
Re: Man steals $320K from Kickstarter campaign
To be fair, Sealark had only 59,000 usd. That would be two years living expenses for a person. If you needed to hire two people that would quickly go within a year. Yogventures and Mighty No. 9 and this project had way much more money. The creator of Sealark was good at pixel art and she did continue to release art until…
