Re: [WIP] Rain Cannon
I went ahead and re-did the canister on top. I realized why it looked bad last time and now that I do have it in place it looks a lot better. I added some extra details in there too, and some indent floaters on the sides to give it more interest and appear less flat. Any further comments/critique are welcome. Still not… -
Re: Hammerburst I
I think you could soften up a lot of your edges, right now it feels tight, and its throwing off the scale, almost like this should be a space ship instead of a small weapon, if you know what I mean. You'll have resolution problems baking a lot of these details ie; not enough pixels to represent the geometry. Those tiny… -
Re: Hard Surface Stuff
Could use a bit more optimization, but good going so far. -the insets in the cylinder are rather icky looking atm, needs some more sides. -front screw can just be a cylinder -reduce one screw a bit so you can implement the other screw as well? -does the middle loop on the cylinder do anything? Most stuff is just floaters… -
Re: DirectX 11 tesselation and floating geometry in high poly models
there has been some floating geo in the 2 dx11 demos I've seen, rocks intersecting the ground, and windows and rocks on the corners of buildings, I think most places where bolts and nuts are going to be used aren't going to be rough, but smooth, and wouldn't have tessellation on them in the first place. But I think it… -
Re: Workshop #1 - Notorious P.I.G
Working slow. I got sick so my energy and skill level is down to zero. I don´t know how people can work when they are sick... but you have my respect. Anyway. I saw that the screws at the bottom was supposed to be star-holes just now so i gotta fix that. Front piece is what im working on right now. Doing it all in floaters. -
Re: MaxScript Issues (arrays?)
got your PM, is it something you want to contribute or is it more personal? because either way I could implement it for you. I designed the GUI in a way that all scripts are seperate *.ms files with a single function in them. The main script that builds the floater then loads the function and calls it from one of the… -
Re: Baking Issue (Again)
Basic ray projection issue, well not so much an issue with any sort of software, but your mesh itself. http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81154 What I generally do with this stuff, is just cut in one vert right in the middle of the offending floater/detail, this generally softens up the normals enough there to… -
Re: Inkfish's Character art and various bits and pieces
hey Darkleopard! it was hardsurface all the way with kinda many floaters, i'd say go with the program you feel most comfortable with, i know zbrush has some pretty kickass hardsurface techniques (shadowbox clipping etc) but i personally prefer ye olde sdiv modeling workflow for such symmetrical and mechanical objects, but… -
Re: Have i a wrong LowPoly Workflow?
Shouldn't give up, just keep at it, you just need to learn how and when to terminate your edge loops, so they don't clutter up the mesh, and when things should just be a floater or separate object. Also a combination of baked and ndo2 helps you keep a cleaner HP mesh as well, in the highpoly only model for nice smoothness,… -
Re: Monthly Environment Art Challenge - September & October 2017 (50)
@antonyj I'll be attempting all of the props, at the very least in the timeframe provided, I will be doing all of the larger assets on the top row :) I have a small issue with the image I already provided, when I turn up my metalness, I find that the floater I used to bake down the detail on the low poly has a problem when…
