we all love to make games but it would be super nice if we could actually not be exploited while we do that right? we could make that dream a reality if we just organized ourselves. ok so we're all aware that game developers are pretty consistently treated like absolute garbage by their employers for multiple reasons, and…
you'll need to show the component hierarchy that you dealing with. Thats the upper left corner panel in the blueprint editor. Where you add new components. Presumably you already have some static mesh component for the candle. To attach a particle system you would add a new component, search for the particle system you…
Thank you. The reason why we want to test UE is speed and costs. I believe - without proper testing with an actual shot pure speculation I know- that UE can render a frame much faster(there are a lot of other aspects than speed, sure but let's simplify) than Arnold. I rendered CUs with much hair and SSS and got rendertimes…
Thanks man, will be double checking the roughness over the coming week. in the meantime here are some new update shots, done most of the hevay lifting regarding texturing, still missing some tiling, and the cables still need UVíng. I have done some photogrammetry for the plant pot and I intend to add a small plant inside,…
Updated to v1.0.1 on 5/4/2014 - Scroll down version notes. This is a little tool I wrote that I've been meaning to package into a desktop application for a while. "refBoard" is basically a simple image viewer, but designed specifically for artists. (* Requires Adobe AIR) Here's why it might be useful: * Very discrete…
Okay, trying to cut this down to 1000 words or less. Here ya go: The sun slid away over the crystalline hills as she peered around the corner of the stockade. She pulled her cloak close hiding her armor. Her long white hair was carefully tucked under her hood. As much as she tried to blend in there was no getting around…
Thanks for the response. After researching handedness in normal map coordinate system I only found that the order of the colors changes in a right vs left hand system: So I did not know about Channel Packing before but it seems likely this could be the case for the red/green/grey normal maps. Is there a standard list of…
I second the others - I use a gaming pad and thumb click for middle button on a logitech g502. Very ergonomic and faster to work once you muscle memory the buttons. More sensitive buttons I think might actually cause more problem. Kind of like a hair trigger on a gun, it means you'd need to "hover" more carefully which is…
It's not the fact that it's a 'wolf head profile' that warranted a DMCA. It's the fact that they literally lifted somebody else's art, their own stylized take on a wolf head and didn't even bother to let them know. A takedown was absolutely warranted. Deriving new designs from other ideas is a very common practice in…
I don't like small tablets with screens. They are small and you cover their screens with your own right hand . Well until you are a left handed person my guess . So I use just a small intuos . For travels it's much more important to have a nice ips monitor with a portable leg you can unscrew and altogether fit into 22"…
