Re: Dealing with Burnout
I can assure you that you're not alone. I had similar feelings running through 2022 and considered quitting completely. I was fortunate enough to be able to take a break at the beginning of this year and it definitely helped me reset, reassess my priorities etc. but it hasn't solved any external problems that were… -
Re: Beginner 3D Character Artist Path
Go online to your favorite gallery like here, or Artstation, find a concept you like. (ask the artist for permission to make it) and then make it. I do not suggest trying to design your own characters and make them in 3D to start with, unless you're great at character design already, which your post indicates not. Instead,… -
Re: Maya 2022
Not very unless you've written shit code on the whole. It'll be a bit of a timesink but I'm not expecting to see anything completely stop working - except where lazy buggers have slapped print statements everywhere (myself very much included) The one benefit of being ten years behind the rest of the world is that lots of… -
Re: Substance Painter - Materials Transition Artifacts
The masking process turns whatever you make into a 1 bit mask so attempting to smooth it can often make the problem worse. Disabling antialiasing on the color ID bake is the best way to prevent these artefacts. if you bake at a higher resolution (eg 4k > 1k ) than your intended output resolution that can often be enough to… -
Re: Spline Modelling Without drawing cage?
You're buggered then I think.. If you can't explain a ruleset then you can't write the code to solve your problem. I model like this a lot. Quite often ill do a very low res spline mesh, convert to mesh, make edits, extract splines use that as a surface, convert it to mesh - and so on. If it ever feels like too much work,… -

Re: General Direction
As a 3D Artist turned UI/UX Artist, I can say that there are a better career opportunities for UI/UX guys. You will have a bigger impact on the games you work on, but also often have to solve some near impossible problems and get frustrated often. But I don't regret the switch, even though I still do some 3D Art as a hobby… -
Re: [WIP] Morrigan Aensland redesign (High Poly and Low Poly)
Update!! Legs and torso are done! It's been tricky but I have solved all the problems the form has given to me. The overall polycount for the character (big wings left) is arround 15K tris, a lot less than I expected to have. Maybe once imported to max I'll optimize some zones to try to get arround 12K... Very soon I'll… -
Re: UE4 gpu lightmap baker??
Guys, I am trying to change the TDR settings to 300. I did some research and I found this: http://developer.download.nvidia.com/NsightVisualStudio/2.2/Documentation/UserGuide/HTML/Content/Timeout_Detection_Recovery.htm I can't find the nsight monitor icon. Does this come with Geoforce Experience ap? I don't install… -
Re: Explosions at Boston marathon
There is a difference between the FBI bringing in somebody for questioning versus the internet going "This guy did it!" and moving on to the next one saying the same thing over and over again. There is also a huge difference in sending a tip to the FBI versus telling everybody on the internet about it. Crimes are not…
