Re: April WIP [Dmitrys Fanart]
When you're at the super low subdivs, you want to be using the move tool at default settings and the smooth tool at about 30-40 strength. Then you move up to higher ones, usewhatever is more comfortable to you, trim dynamic or hpolish or even spolish. Play around with tools if you want, there are good reasons for our… -
Re: Sculpted Tileable Textures
Thanks. Yeah I had issues with the dark cavities in the bricks, I tried to pull the values up but obviously not enough. And definitely I'll be adding some color variation soon. The spec on the wood was mostly an experiment to fix some black artifacts I was getting when there was more detail and contrast in the texture. As… -

Some people have shown 4k screens and the textures are NOT small (pirate version), they are INSANELY HUGE. BTW, They have a very bad perfomance with a sli of 2 gtx 980 (~20-30fps).

Re: Advice, critique and pointers for a beginners project
If you plan on using this in Unreal or any modern game engine, you can use tilable textures and use your AO channels on a separate UV Coordinate.

Re: Refinery Hallway Scene
Damn, thanks everyone for the great crits. Zack - When you say "increase" spec power (this acts as a gloss type option right) where would you suggest. I've played with it around 16 (default) to anywhere from 30 - 40... and I like how the higher ones look, but in my scene, when I bake down the lightmaps, nothing really… -
Re: What to do with old buildings?
Vig thank you so much for that link. I lost it years ago. I LOVE that site. I've had a fascination with abandoned buildings and vehicles for a long time. It began when our car broke down on a family trip and I found an old abandoned school bus down the road in the trees. I went inside and found all kinds of interesting… -
Re: My Haunted House 2008!!
Ya we got, i dunno about 40-50 kids? Would you say that many Sectaurs? My wife thinks it's close to 80 kids. I don't know for sure I was getting pretty tipsy by the end of the night:). The town puts on "fake-o-ween", which is where parents can take their kids to the local shops the night before Halloween between 4-6pm.… -

Oh wait same guy... =P Notman, I think we've been down that road before... I guess the story is different depending on where…
