Re: Time to change my pc?
The 8GB 1070 would be better in your case. SLI setups have various drawbacks, like you don't get 2x4GB = 8GB ram, you only get 4GB ram total out of them. Substance Painter works best with a lot of VRAM, so 8GB wins here. Some apps don't have any benefit at all from SLI either. -
Re: Marmoset toolbag for architectural viz animations?
You should only be using a game engine if you want to make your stuff interactive. Other wise just use Vray/Mental Ray and per-render out some animated cameras. Marmoset can't really handle the kind of polys you would be pushing for professional arch viz models. Also its hard to get interiors to look good. -
Re: Is it wrong to take a break?
And to maybe piggyback on the good advice by poly_bob, it might be a good chance to evaluate your current path. Might be that games are not what you want to do, taking a break from game art in particular could be a good time to explore other CG areas, like arch-vis, or just rendering in general, or something else related… -
Re: Texturing complex meshes/multi-tile texturing
Theres 2 ways: - separate the uv tiles by Material, straight forward but not very flexible. If you decided down the line you want to switch material on a certain piece, you gona have to re group those uvs on another tile. - separate by relation/proximity (ie everything on the leg including cables and joints are group into… -
Re: perfromance issues
If you've got 100 2K textures (about 12MB each), that's about 12GB of VRAM and may explain your problem. Textures at 1K should be about 3MB, so 100x3 = 3GB at 1K. You've got a video card with 8GB of ram, so you should probably shoot for something more like 6GB max of VRAM usage, to leave memory for the textures + shadow… -
Re: Solved: everything goes blank
I apologize, the project was blank when I was testing Quixel to VRay, it was autosaved. Everything works fine now, thank you, Syna. :D -
Re: 3d-artist moving from Video-Games to Ads/Movies
Get some mental ray or Vray under your belt. Master Zap does a great course on FXPHD which I can personally recommend. It covers all the basic information you need for doing integration work in mental ray and alot of core technical knowledge. (I think haiddasalami, was in my class, or was that just math?) -
Re: Cyberpunk-ish Girl
Calling this a wrap! I learnt a lot on this project, while there are a few things I might have done differently in hindsight, I'm really happy with the results I have achieved. Final renders done with VRay Next & VRay Cloud. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. And expect a gumroad sometime in the near…
