Re: Low Poly - Rus Warrior
model it self looks to be off to a great start but yeah the UVs have way to much neg space. I don't use max so I can't really help you technically I generally use maya,roadkill. Roadkill is a free stand alone uv tool(i think you can get a plug in version too) that helps get you quick and dirty lay outs for your uvs, you… -
Re: How to display HP Objects
My typical setup: Dark grey diffuse, 70-90 on the rgb scale. Strong spec, 60-90% Wide-ish gloss, 20-40% Then I use a 3 point light setup. Marmoset did a good tutorial for TB1 that applies to any 3D package: http://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn/character-lighting Make sure to have realistic quality viewport mode on (or… -
Re: Dough Boy - Cute Diesel Punk Infantry Robot
WIP 4 So, I'm still trying to understand the subd workflow in Maya. It's hard. I get the whole concept regarding control edges, etc, but when I hit problem situations like "Oh, how do I add control edges where all these planes meet together in these strange curvatures and angles and at starred vertices?" my mind sort of… -
Re: tileable texture question
yup. At least every decent engine That's how most bark textures are done. They tile more on the vertical than the horizontal, so sometimes bark will be on the left half of the texture (tiling vertically, but not horizontally) and leaf card textures will be on the right. Then the trunk is unwrapped into the left half of the… -
Re: Honda S2000
The density of the mesh in some places and especially that boot would be making the body near impossible to work with effectively. It will be easier to point out trouble areas if you post a smooth shaded view. Why do you have uneven subdivisions around the tyres? *Spanks you* You can treat the tyre and the rim as separate… -
Re: my transform gizmo has gone missing
Hi Rhinokey, here is my completely clueless shot in the dark: following code resets every Transform Gizmo setting to default value. Just give it a try. Hopefully it would fix something wrong. -- Reset Transform Gizmo to default values( tmGizmos.useGizmo = true tmGizmos.size = 40 tmGizmos.useLabels = true… -
Re: if british beer is so good, where can I get it?
mmmmmmmmmm Shiner Boch, born a and brewed in Texas! though not considered a domestic at most places here in Dallas, go figure. (sorta off topic I guess since it's not a UK beer) Anything by Abita is good! (Louisiana Brewery) you can get a party pack for 10 bucks and its just a good sampler of all the beers they make. mmmmm… -
Re: Are you attending any animation school or self learn?
I'm no animator, but I'm friends with plenty. That being said, animation, for the most part, cannot be lumped into Polycount's normal "go to a traditional art school and learn the technical stuff on the side" take on schooling. I've known big name animators who still say they suck, simply because they haven't been doing… -
Re: 60 000 polygons?
Two weeks seems like plenty of time to learn, and get a process down, but I'd aim for doing it in a work week (40) hours or one day for each component of the process. To school yourself, try doing some lower end vehicles 100% in one day, and do this everyday to really speed up your process. Time yourself so you understand… -
Re: Customizable AR 15
Hey Guys! Long Time now update. But I did some stuff :) I managed to finalize all the Lowpoly Assets and the Normal Maps for them! I ended up with 40 different Assets in Substance Painter now with different Shaders on all of them. Also I started working on a Unreal Weapon Builder. What I wanted to achieve is a little scene…
