Re: Is it just me or is Autodesk putting 3DS Max aside?
Yes, it's designed from the ground up for quickly and efficiently navigating 3d space. Conversely a mouse and a keyboard are not designed for navigating 3d space at all. A space pilot will significantly cut down the wear and tear on your wrists, and increase your productivity. The learning curve is what throws people off… -
Re: Another Noob Journey ( Sculpting & Anatomy )
They are all weak in different way. Best thing you can do is stick with making something realistic based on reference, that avoids the stylisation that often covers for inability. 1. crossed eyes that are too wide, chest is harsh and boxy. Ear is wrong shape 2. Too stylised to say anything, lacks level of detail, no… -
Re: Switch to Maya for Job? is max less used in the game industry?
If I had to draw a paralleled... Software A is like a manual transmission. Software B is like an automatic transmission. It doesn't really matter which software is A or B. The point is, if you learn to drive both ways, you can drive any car out there. Don't handicap yourself and don't stress about leaving one for the other… -
Re: Interview advice
It sounds like you have things pretty well handled all ready. A job in the industry doesn't require an education. It is however a stepping stone for some people. If they offer you a job and you are unable to work university in then take the job. If you need to you can finish school later. Experience in the industry is… -
Re: I seemed to have buggered up my viewports!
Thanks for the fast replies, however it is now half fixed. I am able to display the image now with the help of the f-keys (thanks swizzle) but it still defaults on load up to the purple outline. I am still missing the text in the top left of each view port, I am able to change some of the settings by going into view ->… -
Re: 3D artist + concept support for Dominance War 4?
Undecided. The biggest disadvantage I've had in the 2 DW challenges I've attempted, is my inability to concept what I want to do, in the level if quality I want it to be. I wish I had a talented concept artist giving me a foundation to work from. But, if that's allowed, then all the highly skilled modelers paired with the… -
Re: Unwrapping... Help Me God!
Pelt mapping: I don't use this technique but it was good to learn when i needed it http://www.juansiquier.com/in_progress/teapot_uvmap.avi I dont really have anything to add here, but i was like you unable to unwrap anything. What made it for me was to pass my days in the unwrap editor placing planar maps on every object i… -
Re: Favor for a friend...calling you programmer types
Oh, in that case I definitely agree, Sonic. To work at a studio he needs to be comfortable with C++. In particular, he needs to know how to manage his own memory and resources, which is a discipline that C# won't teach him. The technical arguments are almost beside the point because studios already have large bases of C++… -
Re: [Maya] GN Quad Fill Hole
Hi @devingeesr Can you open the Python file in a text editor and check the first couple of lines to make sure that you are indeed using version 4.07? If so, I would suggest to completely reset your Maya preferences and reinstall the script. You can reset the preferences by deleting the following folder:… -
How do I blend two meshes together nicely in ZBrush?
Hello, I've recently started to incorporate ZBrush into my workflow and there's something that has had me stuck and unable to continue for a couple days. I want to combine two meshes (or tools, I guess?) into one, but I can't quite get it to look right. I've included an image below. https://imgur.com/a/LmiTWqE I would like…
