Re: How many of you dev.
I can imagine that this is actually quite common. I don't know anybody interested in game development outside of the internet but many of the programmers I meet at school, both good and bad, are ego-stroking jerks. Programming a small simple game really isn't that difficult, you just have to be willing to learn, much like… -
Re: Concept to environment: Wasteland Waystation
I like the concept but feel it may be lacking a strong focal point right now. It's like a bunch of props thrown together in a desert. I would say maybe add a few more items, and try to find a strong focal point. Also, adding tears in the canvas I think would look pretty sweet! Also, this really reminds me of some Killzone… -
Re: Vyes workshop concepts
Tweaked more, made low poly models in blender now and am currently playing around with that. I remain unsure about the faceplate design, it's hard to place supportive straps for it when his body is so ....pudgy. I love the new gauntlet design, need the rope bindings are going to be the hard part though. Can't decide at the… -
Re: flexible Low Poly Counts - Workflow - Is there a way???
I think you are looking for an automatic LOD generator. Multi-res in 3dmax , Decimate in Blender, Maya has something too. As well as a few game engines themselves. But Imo neither of them work perfectly right to have a perfect polyflow and no shading artifacts. Thus manual retopology tools are so common. Those tools works… -
Re: How do you make normal map for belt, buckles, ... ?
You can do it either way, really just depends on your needs. Unless the item is replaceable (ie: you can unequip it) I would probably just make them all a single object. Making them separate objects is fine, but you may end up with penetrating meshes during animation if you aren't careful with how you lay out your… -
Re: Animation Transition from 3ds Max to Maya
Are you still applying for the maya ones? Most companies will let you learn on the job. I only knew maya at the start. Learned max on the job. Same with motion builder when I changed companies. animation is pretty similar in Maya though. It's actually better (in my opinion.) Graph editor is basically the same. s keys… -
Re: How can I connect two shapes with a mesh? - 3dsmax
These are splines? I think you're after the cross-section and surface/nurbs tools. If you convert to an editable spline, attach them together so they're both in the same item layer and then use the cross-section tool (next to the attach button) to join them. You can then apply a Surface modifier and you'll get some "proxy"… -
Re: Substance in UE4 Vertex Painting
I guess my question is... when you import a substance material, it creates (in my case anyways) the four maps/outputs I have, a Substance Graph Instance, a Substance Instance factory, and a material. I'm just a bit lost when it comes to whats connected to what... So the substance graph instance allows me to change the… -
Re: The Monthly 'Newb' CHARACTER Challenge of Feb 2014
Haven't had time to work on him this weekend :( @ATaylor I would change your material, I find any of the grey materials to be the best. I actually use one that emulates mudbox but I have no idea where I got it from :\ I use dynamesh for extra items, block out some shape then switch over to the Topology brush and draw out a… -
Re: Ubisoft's - Child of Light
I played it start to finish. It's not a good game. It opens up fairly well, and some of the visuals are genuinely awesome - but the story rapidly trails off within the first half an hour or so, then drags on for another ten-twelve hours. The combat is boring, the character skill trees feel like a waste of time, and whilst…
