Re: Polycount newbie
Hey thanks I actually appreciate the constructive criticism. The models I posted are actually about a year and a half old, and I have improved since then. Unfortunately most of my ZBrush work has managed to disappear, and my better remains on a jump drive that i never seem to have the time to plug in. I just wanted to make… -
Troubleshooting Trees for CryEngine
Hopefully others can post with questions regarding trees in this thread. I followed this 3dmotive tutorial for creating trees: https://www.3dmotive.com/f102101 Except mine is an evergreen and I want to bring it into CryEngine. In CryEngine's vegetation budgets (http://freesdk.crydev.net/display/SDKDOC3/Vegetation+Budgets)… -
Hi, I'm new. Env or Level Design portfolios?
Hello, I just finally made a polycount account after numerous times lurking. I'm in my 2nd year at the Art Institute of Dallas. I can't wait to get to posting and getting feedback from others.

ST41 Falchion Interceptor Plane: Substance Designer / 3Dmax Vehicle
Hey Polycount: I really like Crimson Skies. One of the few games I played in secondary school that really sparked my interest in aviation in games. Easy to pick up arcade controls, but still felt solid. Though, mutiplayer strategy in that game never quite elucidated itself to me. I'm going to learn modelling in 3Dsmax and… -
Starcraft 2 Marine/Marauder Concept Rifle
Hi, this project started as a personal "speed model challenge" but now I'm eager to finish it. I used one of the concept sketches from the Starcraft 2 WoL Artbook as basis: I started by doing a blockout and then I build the ingame model from it. At the moment I'm at ~ 10k verts. The render was done in 3DO. You can download… -

Re: Terrain Questions in 3ds Max
For the actual ground/terrain: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=88933&highlight=choco (if you search on his name, he also has some rock tutorials). Outside of that, there is lots to be found on 3dmotive/eat3D (from making props to introduction to udk/cryengine/material tutorials/baking/etc) On polycount, it… -
Re: Baking normal maps.
Are you sculpting these bricks and then bringing into max? If so, try a polygon reducer like decimation master to get each brick down to a reasonable polycount. Often when sculpting you can create details that are sub-pixel in size and are unnecessary for the baking process. Outside of that, your computer is fairly slow to… -
Re: Dxt5NM in Max viewport?
Well I guess that would explain why the 3dc failed as well since it is a object space map. Could this info be added to the polycount normal map wiki? I think only registered users can modify those pages. http://wiki.polycount.net/Normal_Map So, I guess that leaves me with 2 questions (only 1 directly related). 1. What…
