Classic Art Inspiration for Game Artists
Hey folks, For years now I've been noticing how disconnected we are from classical art as digital artists. There is such a treasure trove of brilliant creative thought and yet we still usually go to the same 3 places as source of inspiration. The OGs have some amazing takes on dramatic lighting, environment composition or… -
Re: perceived scale in blender vr renders
poopipe - scale is relevent with the new vr inspector inside blender, works great , ie giant inside a small scene, but pre rendered is tough to set up. just confuses a guy The more extreme you make the IOD , the more it hurts your eyes at exteme angles RN - sorry for the late response, so yeah i was thinking along the same… -
[3dsMax][Vray] Could not allocate buffer of size X
Hi. I've been trying to render my scene on and off for like a few months by now. And it (almost) always ends up with a message [V-Ray] [GPU light cache] Could not allocate buffer of size 1865MB! Or [V-Ray] [GPU light cache] Could not allocate buffer of size 345MB! One time it was just 14MB tho, but pretty much only those 2… -
Re: [WIP] Big House "Belle Epoque".
Hello everyone, It is true that I had two suns in my scene ^^', I even didn't pay attention to the 2nd one, but it's fixed now! Thanks!

Re: Sketchbook: Cristian Villalobos
Hi Cristian, Looks interesting. What are your goals with this? Its quite a large piece. When we start work on projects we will first do a visual target. This is normally a small, isolated scene where we can develop the style without taking on too much and costing a load of time. Something of this scale with all of these… -
Re: Grand Meteora, UDK Environment
It's pretty reasonable - the layout itself is nailed quite nicely and the composition isn't too bad. My major critiques would be: 1) The wall meshes are very uniform (on top in particular), despite being constructed of large stones. I would genuinely have used real geometry on the tops, and sides of the walls, as the… -
Re: Best Software to create sketches to be used in Maya?
I didn't mean to suggest that people just skip the concept design phase and go straight into detailed modeling if that is what you're reading, what I mean is that 3D is a far superior for laying out your scenes perspective than using perspective drawing tools in a paint program. My issue is that it's easy to mistake a bad… -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Unfortunately, you also need the frame buffer to do that. Shaderfx is unaware of other objects in your scene beside the one its applyed to nor the frame buffer (nor other full screen passes for the matter, like a normal pass which also is needed to make reflections, refractions etc). Also not. ShadowMap is generated by… -
Re: [UE4] Balin's Tomb
Hey guys! Thanks for the feedback was a lovely surprise to come on and see the messages! Thank you, I appreciate your kind words! EpicBeardMan said: I agree and I think I can probably fix the glossiness in my EU4 materials as I just have a constant which defines the specular value. I think the roof is suffering because its… -
Re: On Why too much help stunts your growth
Really great thread!! I quite agree that one has to make their own mistakes to learn--and I have a funny, stubborn way of going about that. I have a tendency to be given advice (like when I was in school, on PC, etc), think I understand the advice but, for some insane reason, think I KNOW better, and then learn why I'm…
