Re: [Character Model] GNOME!
Paul, looks awesome so far!! This guy gets around quick from the kitchen counter top to the computer screen :) haha. You're topology is clean and smooth, defining the shape of the character wonderfully. Can't wait to see him textured and to see what approach you take: photo or paint or a combination of both. And love that… -
Re: A little Head test
Captain Picard? Hahha, ok, Vin Deisel! Seriously though, pretty good likeness. Seems to be a bit of weirdness in the edge loops around the mouth, but that's not a big deal. My only crit is that the ear looks a little off. Lobe is not defined enough, and the piece of cartilage above it is either too high or shaped a little… -
Re: Why so blue?
That's strange, it was definately double the size after x conversion from tga inside the game editor as I extracted the textures to compare the dxt3 and dxt5 formats. This must be specific to the editor I was using, so if you use no alpha information in your dxt5 in some other editor the file size remains the same?… -
Re: Mostly used 3D application for game developing
It's been 3ds/Max for me at most of my jobs, but a decent sized minority of studios definately use Maya. I've been noticing a trend in the last couple of years where more employers want artists who are good in any major 3d app, and can work with whatever software they prefer. Here at Terminal Reality it's Max. -
Re: MGS4 + Nintendo Revolution controller revealed :O
When i saw the TV remote.. i thought... "Whaaaaaaaat?" then you learn about its funtionality which has me intrigued. then when i saw the joystick hookup I was definately excited. For those who dont like it.. I'm sure there will be addon controlers that look more standard.. either by nintendo or 3rd party people. -
Re: Who Shall Win the Superbowl?
I'm thinking it'll be Eagles-Patriots. But it'll really depend on how Rothesburger plays I think. He definately played like a rookie at times during the Jets game. Hopefully he'll be a bit less rattled this weekend. Ultimately though, the Pats are just insanely tough. To dismantle the Colts like they did was really… -
Re: Short Dev Cycles
Zombie is doing this sort of thing right now. They're working on several low-budget titles- not sure if I can name them. There's definately a market for cheaper games ($20-ish), but it's not very prestigious. Personally, I prefer working on big-budget titles. The next few games I complete none of you will ever hear of. -
Re: Another Character Design Class.....WattsAtelier
great progression, nose. i still think what this fella needs is more attention to lineweights--not a big black line outline, but just to help define and pop certain shapes. you've been a bit too delicate on some of the lines and the good shapes you've come up with are getting lost. i like the redesign changes, though. -
Re: just a noob question :)
You would in the sense that yes, as tumorboy says, model->uv->texture. But definately not in the sense that you unwrap everything uniquely and paint it all on one texture. You want to do a lot of planing first, figure out where you can use tiling texture, which details need unique texture space, etc. -
Re: Consciousness Takes a Trip - MA project
Nice idea and looks well executed so far. I get the impression that you're not really sure about the tone you want for this - "slightly psychedelic" & not "cartoonishly colourful" are a little at odds with each other (imo that 'psychedelic vibe' is defined by its bright colours). It could be worth collecting some style…
