How do you go about LOD???
Hi, I am working on a weird open world game which has alot of rocks (like a ton). I decimate the big rocks, but I want to do add LOD's for them. Do you decimate them again in a lower poly-count and do the UV + texture again, or do you retopologize inside a 3D program(Max) and remove edge loops. Any advice and tips is much… -
Question about SubD modeling and Game Assets
Hello. I am still a beginner when it comes to 3D in general. I've spent the last month or so practicing SubD modeling techniques with emphasis on maintaining clean topology. However, i realize this approach is often used for 3D models in animation or the film/tv industry, and not as in game assets. I checked other artists… -
Re: Question about Environment art portfolios
thanks for the replies! I would certainly give credit if I did use engine assets. It's definitely not about not wanting to do them myself, but more about the time. Work currently keeps me really busy and now just the amount of time it takes to learn new techniques, new engines, and do a ton of asset creation. It is really… -
Re: Question about Education in Vancouver

(possible cheaper ones). Now I'm hearing all these good things about Think Tank. Since it's way cheaper, i'm gonna spend some time… -

Questions on high-surface modeling, specifically about different pieces
hi polycount! this is a WIP of my "Futuristic Baton." So in this picture, most of what you see are individual polygons overlapping each other. This is a high-poly version, which I will use to make low poly; now the question is, is it advisable to overlap different polygons? As you can see, the pieces are overlapping; I was… -
Power Hover pseudo-low-poly indiegame about hover boarding robots[GREENLIT!]
Hello Polycount! Me and my friend formed a small game company: ODDROK about a month ago, here is our first game: POWER HOVER. It's a action game about hover boarding robots! We are almost done with the game(submitting to app store as we speak, so to speak) so I think It's about time to share something on the Polycount as… -
So how much DO you know about your programs?
Every so often, I'll start fiddling around in 3DS Max 5.1 and find something completely and utterly alien to me, and I'll realize just how little I really know about it - and the same goes for Photoshop, and several other programs. What about you? How well do you really know your program of choice, anyway? And would you… -
Not quite sure how to go about sculpting parts of this fish character
I've only been using ZBrush for a few weeks and in the class I'm taking we're working on this character..... The head has given me some difficulty. After I sculpt out the base mesh I can't figure out a clear direction to go in. How should I go about adding the gills? For the body I'm using Zspheres, but again after that I… -
