Re: Live Microsoft Press Conference to kick off E3
Knect (dumbest name ever) looks like its just the Wii without a controler. The Move is just a better Wii mote. Fail to both IMO. Then again I havent seen what Sony has to show for the Move yet but I bet it will be about the same as Microsoft. Casual games/Wii ports with better graphics. Nothing really exciting or new this… -
Re: Overcloking PC for work.
For my desktop I have an Athlon 64 3000+, stock 1.8ghz overclocked to 2.67ghz. This thing is a beast! I also have a 6600 vanilla that is overclocked from 300/500 to 475/800. The CPU cooler is the stock AMD64 one, and the graphics card has extra heatsinks I added onto the RAM chips. I can run FEAR at very high settings at a… -
Re: A rock
Good start. You really need to work more on your highpoly, though. Atm, it's really soft and doesn't look like convincing rocks, yet. If you pay attention to the image you linked below your personnal artwork, you'll notice hardedges (in the sculpt NOT in the lowpoly), different angle and variations in the faceted look,… -
Re: BRDF - anyone using this?
Up to you I guess, whether you want it or not. I'm already being handed it, so my job is to figure out how artists are going to want to use it, and to help them realize it. It basically helps control what direction the lighting is reflected off the surface. So I can use it to do fancy car paint, gold/brass/copper,… -
Re: Uni Project...... lots of images...
There are a lot of areas that need work, but I would say the main thing texture wise is your painting methods. Don't paint with such dark colors! Pick the actual tone and hue you want and paint with conviction! Not every shadow should go to black. You are having to cover it up by smudging too much and the textures end up… -
Re: WIP - My first real character
Hey man technically it looks great to me the textures are nice and your hard surfaces are excellent, the soft parts lose a little, but hey your learning. only qualm right now is the facial detail. i understand that the character is supposed to be damaged from a shell hit to the shoulder, but i dont feel that the slashed… -
Re: Ratchet Commando (normal mapped)
[ QUOTE ] Something looks wrong here, like you did this without using smoothing groups... Thats all fine if you render your normals map in doom3 and use it in doom3(it re-normalizes your model so you dont need smoothing groups) but it this is in max you need to use smoothing groups or else you will get shading errors,… -
Re: sketchbook: jouste
@inprogress: thanks dude! i shall continue to make more! so here's fingers the hexecutioner! a mean demonic monstrous warrior who wields the dreaded "axe of lousy reincarnationing". yes being slayed by this awful axe will get you reincarnated as something really crummy. take for example those two poor mouse bastards being… -
Re: Sketchbook: Abhishek Chaudhry
k not bad, but why are you drawing white along the edges- to suggest a beveled edge? also your shadows are inconsistent. you need to determine if the lighting is soft or hard. when light hits an edge the rays spread and the shadow will become more blurred depending on light intensity, and distance. aka diffraction. plan on… -
Re: Evil Doll
the texture is looking a bit weak at this point. first of all, you should fix the underlying geometry of the cheeks, try turning edges first, then if you have to add geometry, they have weird smoothing errors caused by those long edges. The eyes and face are very flat, combine that with the super heavy deliniation of color…
