@Apocrs1980 @FreneticPonies @7bajwa I have crafted LODs for grass, pushed high the triangles number for LOD_0 (~850 tris) to maximize the cutout, tweaked and reused old LOD_0 as LOD_1 (48 tris), and made a very cheap LOD_2 (6 tris). Fade-off for grass is 100 meters so there's plenty of sight range, althought I could push…
It sucks... I mean, they screwed up with the IWNet thing and I won't lie, a part of me hates them for that... But Activision are seriously doing everything they can to be the biggest dick wads on the scene. It used to be EA at fault for everything but over the years, they really have improved a lot and I can honestly say I…
First experiment with the grass in-engine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZV71unZ8cC4 So, I have been reading and dissecting other's people work on vegetation. I went for a Masked/Subsurface/2-Sided material, instead of UE4's 2-Sided Foliage shader, because I was getting bad results on the flowers meshes (probably because…
Dang guys, killer feedback! @whw: I do agree she has moved away from the typical detective look, but I felt it was too safe and modern. I wanted to try for a more dieselpunk look. She is looking a bit "sky captain" but I'm okay with this, she lives in a different world. The tie is still on the shirt under the vest she is…
Not really, if I would be going back to school it would mean taking student loans. I understand. I was doing that but once you get that nagging buzzing in the back of your head, it's hard to make it stop. Thank and I do agree with you. I am nearly not putting out as much as I should, I can make countless excuses but at the…
Well thats what I said from the beginning Funka, but they told me to now delete my posts and wanted to drag this out. I got completely twisted by some bored people who clearly are in here lying about how they are...theyre not professionals by any means. I have dealt with professionals and they don't act immature...they…
kill: feeling your fine artist oats these days? i wouldn't disagree with your observations, but all that really doesn't change the basic nature of concept art and design. design is still about communication, not making pretty pictures in and of themselves, however much more some concept artists seem to be getting into the…
Ok, how about I agree it's capable, but also agree that sony wont impliment this stuff right away. My points are that with a little creativity it could be used as an alternative to a purchace of a new PC and still have most of the functionality. My comments on the speed issue were based off the claim that using a single…
Whenever that kind of state of mind hits (and that can be pretty often especially if you are in a situation where you can think of things deeply without being disturbed...) I like to think about Planck time. Knowing that we are all completely mind boggled by it somehow makes me feel more connected to everything/everybody…
[ QUOTE ] now complain! this shits AWESOME! [/ QUOTE ] Sure most of the stills look fine, its the motion and the blending that kill it. Even in this shot her teeth aren't touching her lips. At times her upper lip doesn't touch her lower for entire sentences. Peeling the upper lip over a characters head is a bad way to fake…
