[WIP ] #2 Sculpting Details in ZBrush, Retopology and Baking Hi again, I'm back with some updates. I had my family over so I couldn't post anything earlier but I'm back at it again! Here's where I stand with the project. Before I fully committed to sculpting everything I went back to Maya and refined the model to have it… -
Re: Where do I even begin?
I think learning how to model in general would be the best place to start. Maya or Max, your choice, although in my opinion, I think Maya is easier. I'd just start with a bunch of intro videos on modeling random things. Don't worry about modeling for games right now, just learn the programs first. Make some cool shit for… -
Re: 33 yo. Too late? Best learning path?
It's definitely not too late, but I would have seem other means of survival until you get going. It's not a fast process. It will take anywhere from a year to 3 years or more to get somewhere good. Also a ton of people even some people on polycount confuse there love for games for a desire to make them. Just to be upfront… -
Re: Mazda RX-7
Hey 3Drobbo, I've worked on AAA titles and very few of them have full body normal mapped cars and my personal opinion is that normal mapping a whole car is a waste of time, how ever it really depends on the polycount. The current industry trend for this generation is a minimum of 16,000 polys for the exterior (including a… -
Tangent/Binormals wrong : Maya or UDK problem ?

So, it looks like in UDK my binormals/tangent are doing some crazy… -

Zbrush Decimation Master causing black areas in 3DsMax?
Hello, I'm making a trim sheet that I sculpted in Zbrush. However, I kept getting errors when I tried baking some maps in Substance Painter. The errors seemed to indicate that the mesh was too high-poly for my computer to handle, so I used the decimation master tool in Zbrush to get the poly count down. When I decimate my… -
Re: [AUTODESK MAYA] Beginner question : Trying to UV a model
Hey @BIGTIMEMASTER , thanks for your answer ! I always try to find a solution by myself before coming to polycount. I did type that error into google and I obtained a few solutions, which I've tried, and they did not work (I was still getting the same error line and it was still impossible for me to have my door model back…
