Before attending The academy, he was a slave in the Ferengi Sex Industry, But Through his cunning and raw intellect, escaped and went to Starfleet academy where he was able to get a scholership and eventually graduated with top… -
Re: Scifi portfolio level, UDK
Last night I put together a quick example scene, and here's a screen grab of the parent material. It could use work, but does all the things I needed it to do. http://chrisholden.net/parent_example01.jpg It's a parent setup with parameters for diffuse/spec/norm power and color, as well as detail textures, rim lighting and… -
Re: Highpoly Nude Girl
Those folds on her jacket are too soft to be real cloth, I think you should model some harder edges into the folds, also look at some more reference for jackets being worn like that, make sure you get the flow of the folds right, they don't look very believeable at the moment. See Pior's fishboy pants for cool folds… -
Re: My enviornment thread
You're getting some real contradictory shapes in the mesh due to your normal map. There are soft bit which look really nice, then there are those hard edge bits which almost look like they are inverted polys from certain angles. The mesh itself looks very unnatural and very plain on its own. In nfrrtycmplx's post, he… -
Re: UAV (is online)
Thanks guys, I meant that for my own enjoyment I would have preferred a 2048 map :poly124: Vig: I'm not quite sure what you mean about the beveled edges. It could be that my High poly was too soft (Didn't have much of an idea of what I was doing back then). Also I can do nothing but agree about the UVs. At the time I was… -
Re: Question about skin texture
Well, that photo's been airbrushed, that sort of skin almost never occurs in real life However, if you want to paint fesh like that ... well, you just posted a great reference image. You can see in that photo how there aren't really any harsh edges anywhere, nor much contrast except around the eyes, nostrils and lips. The… -

Re: Why I'm never having kids
my parents occassionaly spanked me, but like justin, i was always more scared of my dad shouting at me. me dad being ex-army and having a loud voice for shouting inevitably influenced that. but yeah, if i did a major wrong, i'd get a whack and i didn't do it again. i fully intend to spank my kids if the need arises. kids… -
Re: building a new computer.
Well the extreme edition (aka $1000 edition) of the Nehalem is supposed to come out before years end, but the regularly priced chips aren't scheduled to come out till next year. Also, the newer Radeon cards do have a better price/performance ratio, but if I remember correctly they've had problems in some 3d packages for a… -
Re: What do you make of this AI texturing tool?
IMO etc. There's a lot more money in providing tools for the masses than there is in providing tools for the creatives (there's a lot more masses than creatives) As a result, the current pile of hype-driven generative ML apps are aimed at providing a finished image rather than a useful tool and are utterly useless outside…
