Creating a giant rock cliff?
Working on sculpting a giant cliff and wondering what the typical workflow for something this large is? what I plan on doing is sculpting out a high poly in Zbrush, decimating to get a low poly version, then baking in Substance Painter to get my normal maps. Then using a tiling texture in UE4 in conjunction with the baked… -

Sketchbook: SkyWay
Hi there, figured I should finally do one of these instead of hiding everything I do. Feedback and discussion is welcome and wanted, that's one of the reasons why I'm making this sketchbook. I've been in gamedev stuff for quite a while, from modding to some actual companies and freelance in my past too, but for two years… -
If I want to keep a certain texel density but can't fit all the UV's in the 0-1 space what can I do?
This might be a stupid question, but I have a fairly large object that I want to keep at 8 px/unit but there wouldn't be a way to fit that in the 0-1 space of a 2048 map, even if I change just one of the shells to that range it doesn't fit the 0-1 area. So do I split the UV's into two maps? Not too sure what my options… -
Re: Guide to Game Art Applications - Part 2 - CVs and Cover Letters
You've collated an informative 'template' there, CV/Resume layout coupled with the proviso of submitting a cover letter is pretty much standard these days, regardless of profession.

Re: Online college suggestions for student interested in 3D Modeling.
I assume, "...modeling for film/game" is char biased?

Re: Any good book for "procedural 3D"?
Python and blender is a good choice - max and maya are both entirely capable too. Houdini is built for doing this though so may be your best option. There are two parts to pcg. One is the maths required to generate the patterns. The other is turning the patterns into geometry that actually works. These are both very wide… -
Re: 3ds Max 2013 Announced!
It looks like a good release overall. The video on Small Annoying Things from about a month or two ago showed the most useful improvements to me. Maya style navigation will make a lot of people happy too. Ken: About the customizable workspace, are there any videos of this, is the ui fully drag/drop now then? And has there… -
Re: Unity Scene : Trying to improve my lighting/rendering skills
It appear in the menu with the script " PostProcessingFactory " at line 10 " [MenuItem("Assets/Create/Post-Processing Profile", priority = 201)] ". You can check if you have this. It's a warning saying webplayer is deprecated. PostProcessing doesn't use this. On camera you should have " Use Graphics Settings " which is… -
Re: The gym for the 3d artist ?
Crossfit and rolling muscles out with foam roller. I took a two month break when I first moved to Dallas last year, and my back started killing me every night. Strength = health. Also, make sure you're sitting with proper ergonomics. Specifically monitor height. You should be staring at the center of the screen when…
