Hi Stephan, This is not a bad first attempt, I can see you've got a decent understanding of the 3D pipeline and software tools. Since you made this for Unreal engine im going to assume you were going for a realistic look. With that said I feel like you could really benefit from looking at some of the pro's work and aiming…
Hey Pui, nice start with the scene, the modelling work is looking good. I hope you don't mind a small crit but one thing I have noticed, both in your wip shots and your textures is that they are very busy. For the wip shots it would help to keep them as simple as possible so that people can see and appreciate your work.…
DUDE! I saved myself from this one!!! I was working full time and going to college full time. I was playing CS non-stop, fully addicted. I picked up Everquest and payed for 3 months. Luckily after 1 month I quit. VERY smart move. i chose CS and my life over that game. It all happened around level 8, or was it 9, or was it…
One one thing that hit me is that the saigot part is slightly angular as if you can still see where the horizontal line divisions where across the mesh before you sub divided and sculpted. This might because you subdivided it once with the smt toggled and then stared sculpting. Its the same with (but not some much with the…
Some major difference from my point of view:* TexTools is newer and works with recent versions of 3dsMax (9+). I started development of TexTools with version 9 (though 2009 was already out there back then). My main max version I work and develop with these days is 2010. * There is no need for admin rights or the need to…
@PJ Hi man, as much as I love clean interface but with a blank to start with and can only get it with right click, personally I don't like the idea. Some people (like me) will have a few seconds of blank stare at it and thinking where's the layer to only realize that I'm not in the layer mode. I need those buttons mode in…
Some notes: * The saturation overall is a bit high. I'll reduce it tomorrow. * Some AO was baked right on to the cliff face textures. I'm going to reduce that or remove it outright tomorrow. * The mud & dirt terrain textures need their saturation reduced. The grass needs something else to help the forest floor feel like a…
So far the top contenders are the following: Lenovo Thinkpad X201t http://shopap.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/auweb/LenovoPortal/en_AU/catalog.workflow:category.details?current-catalog-id=3634951826AE4D3881BFFF1AC5FCD957¤t-category-id=5F3D323E86B74590ADD714AAD4CB5F99 Fujitsu LifeBook T900…
Well it obviously doesn't have the feel of the Alien or Predator films, so I'm just going to look at it as a alien slaughterfest film... that said, it looks much much much better then the first AVP. I'm sure it'll be entertaining for what it is, but I doubt it'll be on anyone's top ten list. I'll be watching it just for…
Hey, all! thanks for the painfully honest feedback. and yes, i do tend to get way ahead of myself. in this case the fretting over learning engines. luckily I do have a bit artistic ability and imagination, so the non artists say:)... www.michaelspiral.com feel free to critique to your heart's content. but you are right as…
