Re: High to low ao bake maya 2009 pixel errors.
I try to get people to always bake out an AO map for the high rez. Why? You do it once and it's always available for later, with colour transfer. You spend your time making one high quality bake and get the errors out of the way. You spend your time on the transfer, and just deal with transfer problems, rather than… -

UDK Lighting issues
Hey guys, I'm working on a block-out of a basic environment and am trying to setup some basic lighting, but I'm having an odd issue where my preview/build lighting light is way different from the lighting I get in-game. If I build lighting, I get the normal lighting I want. If I try to go in-game just after doing build… -

Re: m7 assault rifle

Re: Militaristic Spaceships
Neat. Though I'm thinking you might want to try out trim sheets for spacecraft like these. Trim sheets allow you to get much closer to a ship, and still see a lot of detail. You should check out the work done by Millenia on Fractured Space: https://polycount.com/discussion/206582/mining-station-fractured-space -
Re: A Few Questions ! :)
I can only answer some of these questions since I don't do character work. I can give you some high level career advice but obviously take that with a grain of salt and pepper. So really when talking about next-gen they're talking about better rendering technology. Definitely read up some Physically Based Rendering, its… -
Re: Are Weapon/Hardsurface Artists In Game Studios Like Activision Using CAD?
"Sub-d models in undivided state are still having lots of redundant loops you would have to get rid on next LOD" Tell me you are a maya user without telling me. A lot if times if stuff is built with modifiers its just removing said modifiers to kill support loops. Making LODs on meshes with a quadlike structure is usually…
