Re: Nuclear Dawn...?
I still want Stalker quite a bit actually, the game still looks DAMN good, sorry it's not Crysis . It looks great because more FPS games need to be open ended like STALKER aims to be, I want more FPS games to incorporate those RPG elements in a open ended environment, something rare unfortunately. Something comparable to… -
Re: How to ? Directional lightmaps with 3dsMax/Vray
Hi everyone, first post here . Nice forum, helpfull one too :) @ Noors - I'm using exactly the same workflow you described, max+vrayRawTotalLight bake element+those 3 R.tiff G.tiff B.tiff bitmaps set to normal map in the material. Like you, I couldn't find a different approach. Right now the programmer is writing the… -
Re: Dominance War V Begins February 28th
Yeah his became apparent when he set up seperate domains for the comps. How does the remedy the situation hmmm??? You are still in charge Fred. Thats the problem. This year should be the year PC takes over as the host of the big comps (character, environment, maybe some other elements). I've expressed that in other… -
Re: 3d feature film analysis?
I don't really mean to suggest that they aren't carefully considered full stop, what I'm trying to say is that I think that those elements have more potential for communicating meaning than they currently do in 3d animation. This is my current view, but I am open to changing it- the problem is there seems to be very little… -
Re: Shadowrun PC/360.....
The mouse control thing they described is the same ret bloom that was in the Rainbow six/ghost recon series, Counterstrike, Day of Defeat, deus ex, and practically every other shooter that wanted to balance guns realistically or with rpg elements that I've ever played. He never said that the aim was any different on the… -
Re: Tank!
Hmm good observation,ill have to scale quite a bit to match the concept. Think some of the elements i can scale uniformly will get too much of a hit in pixel density? It doesnt feel the amount of scaling i need on these bits might not hurt it too bad. Im thinking the tires,headlights,cylinders on solar panel and wheel… -
Re: Radial symmetry in 3DS Max?
I think you are running into issues like that because the object you are making is not easily 'quarter-able'(?). If it were, you would have no problems using symmetry evenly across the object. Here's an idea- from your base model, slap an edit poly modifier on it. clone and rotate the element around their axis till you get… -

Re: Trouble breaking into the industry
You have some good stuff, but it's diluted among less valuable portfolio elements. Your substances feel like student work or tutorials and should be removed. Your scans are very nice but you could regroup them in a single portfolio entry. You should polish your presentation too. Check how Daniel Thiger lights his stuff.… -
Re: Student looking for critique on final project for school
Hey, I like ur concepts, also good sculpting results for the first steps. Usually, beginners that study 3D art are not advised to immediately start creating characters, but to start with ordinary objects. Nevertheless, I can advise you to put some time to anatomy, even stylized characters require an understanding of it.…
