If I go with Marmoset will I ever need V ray?
Hi, I heard lot of good things about Marmoset toolbag2. My understanding is that both Marmoset and V ray are rendering program. If I go with Marmoset will I ever need to use V ray? Or should I go with V ray instead of Marmoset? I mainly use Z brush and I rarely use 3ds max at the moment, and currently I am interested in 3d… -

Re: Art test question - is this normal? (Long post)
@Alex_J I modeled the highpoly, made the lowpoly, brought everything into substance and baked the textures, textured and then setting everything back up in Blender to duplicate and fill the empty spaces with recycled pieces. Reduced anywhere I felt could be reduced more for polycount. Finally I brought it all into Marmoset… -

Re: Maxscript - how to refresh UI?
I know polyhertz has provided the best solution... I found an interesting solution while trying to force another part of a modifier ui to update (when pressing a toolbar button) ( CurrentMod = modpanel.getCurrentObject() theModifier_ID = modPanel.getModifierIndex $ CurrentMod ($.modifiers[theModifier_ID].enabled = NOT… -
Re: Sketchbook: Teyon Alexander
Been awhile. Sorry for the absence. Now that I'm a game developer I hope to be doing more low poly work I can post here. To start: about 75,000 tris for the little lady.

Re: How to view (Highpoly/decimated) models in Virtual Reality.
Hello - The UE performance is not "quite bad" considering that it can handle realtime games with display complexity orders of magnitude higher than just one asset. Of course that's assuming that you are preparing the model to be real-time friendly, but that's a given. So, the highpoly aspect of your question is pretty much… -
Re: Rendering Animations
VP2.0 with DX11 shader covers most things well, pretty easy to setup and very fast. A large cylinder with a few sub-d levels will give a nice curve from ground to background wall. an ambient and 1 directional light covers the basic lighting set up. Load up Maya or Autodesk Ubershader into a DX11 material and wire up the… -
Re: Which software should i be learning for hard surface modeling in games?
Don't forget Blender, it could become the new Standard in the near future with the 2.8 so it is worth learning it in depth and it already starts to be used in AAA games like those by Epic Games and Blizzard (but mostly by independent external studios that do their skins and special events updates) and it is very popular in… -
Re: how to get a normal map for my character
There is a number of video tutorials that will cover this and, for me, seeing is usually the easiest way to understand on the first go around. Also, check out this websites wiki for detailed explanations and plenty of links to tutorials and further reading. Baking is something that was really troublesome for me as a…
