Re: World of Warcraft - normal maps?
The detail on the right very much looks baked, there is some arc overlapping but also slightly clipping one into another, those are usually signs of clipping from baking, especially on flat planes. Question is, if they indeed do everything in hand, then why fake the clipping artifacts you get from baking too? Is there a… -
Re: When will these next-gen features come?
The objects in that indoor scene from AC don't seem to be floating because they lack shadows - what they lack is reflections off the shiny floor, and the occlusion of the big reflection from the windows (now I suppose one could always define shadows as occluded reflections, but you get my point :) ) Honestly, I keep… -
Re: Game of Thrones s6e9: 'Battle of the Bastards'
Thanks! It's a little difficult to claim things, the way the pipeline works is a 'finished' asset might be waiting for review for a few days (during which time the original artist will move onto something else). When director or CG supervisor give their feedback, i might be the only artist available so i'll fix it up or… -
Re: Batman begins is here,yay no nipples on his suit
i've been thinking about this and want to articulate more on what i liked; the more growly, snarly voice batman has. keaton did rasp a bit, but kilmer and clooney sounded normal. W..T..F..? the fact that the gadgets are all more reality based. no chance of a repeat of B&R's stupid pop-out iceskates. the lack of a)nipples,… -
Re: Current project - work in progress
i really like the arc above & around the entrance to the cathedral, it really does nice things with the space. the decor on the front is pretty nice, too. very neat design. don't so much like the tall tower in the middle, though. i mean, i like it, but for some reason the scale looks off. that level of detail works on the… -
Re: E3-Nintendo
They're the "low end" platform (graphically speaking) NOW, and look how it's worked out for them. Releasing a new platform while your competition is years away from releasing theirs is a smart move. It's almost like your taking turns instead of engaging in head-to-head competition. People who want to play the new Zelda,… -
Re: D.Va Highlight Intro Master Copy
Welcome! Thanks for sharing. A few notes- using other work as inspiration is great, copying is a a good tool for learning. Copying with the purpose of using it on your reel is generally frowned upon. I would recommend doing a similar intro, but adding your own personality. With that being said, here are some notes- D.Va is… -
Re: KF2 - Guns 'n Gear - Q&A
Reply by grabbity · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Killing Floor 2 - Guns 'n Gear - CONTEST HAS ENDEDI have a few inquiries that I hope can be addressed. Regarding WIP threads, if I am no longer working on a set and that set has evolved into one item, and therefore invalidates my set WIP thread, am I able to continue on that thread with that evolved single item? About item names, our WIP-designated item name can change… -
Re: An explanation on alpha maps? flippering
IIRC Crysis uses alpha test for its foliage, which avoids alpha sorting problems... but it only gives you a hard edge, no soft transparency. Alpha test means each screen pixel is tested by the shader to tell if it should be on or off, using some threshold value. Alpha pixels darker than the threshold are clipped out,… -
Re: Bioshock Demo for download
I suspect that you're just doing your 'just got back from the boozer and being obnoxious for the sake of it' thing Ruz If not, I'm genuinely surprised that you might feel that way. You're a talented artist, and its through an artists eyes that Bioshock can really be fully appreciated. A couple of folks at work compared it…
