How to make a quad-based sphere for TurboSmooth/SubDiv Proxy later on?
Hi everyone, Is there a way to create a sphere consisting of only quads? I would like to avoid tris, so as to avoid problems with TurboSmooth and SubDiv Proxy later on. 1. Standard polygon sphere > TurboSmooth The result is not good, because you will get a bunch of wrinkles in the polar regions of the sphere, where the… -
Wild West Selfportrait
Hi Polycount! :) I had this idea in my head for some time now: myself as a game character in a setting I really enjoy - reflecting my love for games, art and historic settings. It would also serve the purpose of proving to potential employers that I am capable of creating game characters. Since I did a lot of facial… -
IN PROGRESS: Custom Materials Don't appear.
So I'm trying for hours now but whatever I try I can't get it to work where I have a set of smart materials that I want to create one Smart Material from so it can be applied to a range of different models in a set. So when I click the "Save a Smart Material from the active layer or group" in this case it's a group it… -
Colors in Maya do not show up the same in Unity
Hey guys! So I'm having a problem when I make my own textures (in Photoshop), preview them on the model in Maya, and then put that model into Unity. Everything imports fine into unity, it's just the color quality that is messing up. For example, here's some cubes that all have a "khaki pant" texture applied to it that I… -
TIME EXTENSION! New deadline August 24th 2014 @ 23:59 EST (GMT -4)
Time extension! A few of you have brought up that 8 weeks will be really tight for you to complete your entry for this contest, and we’d hate to see artists not enter under fear of not finishing due to a lack of time.

Re: Max Caulfield - Life is Strange fanart
We were talking in the slack chat and I offered to do some tweaks to the lighting and presentation, so I figured I would post a short breakdown of that. First step was to find some sort of reference, I looked at screenshots of the game but what really clicked with me was a concept by Kuvshinov-Ilya:… -
Re: USA Independence Day!
The 4th of July, its like Easter but for the cool kids, everyone should join in and exercise their rights to get plowed, horrifically burn some type of meat (often themselves) and blow up tree stumps while simultaneously setting fire to the neighbors roof and or pet. The 4th of July is when all Americans get together and… -
Re: [CE3] Sci-Fi Water Plant
I suggest you look at the lighthouse in the Sandbox example level, which is also primarily lit by the sun, and see how visareas and portals are set up for that. The way it works is you have a visarea for your interior, and portals over your windows and doors (in this case the glass panels) to let sunlight into the room. If… -
Re: [Final] Oil Rig (Ryan Griffin)
@Doxturtle Thanks. Been working hard on getting this project to be my best project yet. @Nuclear Angel Yea I have been trying to get the ground and meshes to work better together. I get what you mean. But I have been having a hard time finding the best way to do that. Right now the best solution I can think of is doing a… -
Re: iOS PVRTC Compression terribly for RGBA
Cody, yeah, that's what I was going but then I got greedy and wanted to see if I could use that 4th channel. RyanB, that's really interesting. I'm guessing it's just a way to try to counter act the compression artifacts? I wish I had a better example ready, but this will do: I have all my maps with out alpha: set is…
