Re: Best shader for viewport hair planes (3dsmax)
Cheers all. The manual sorting is always going to be an issue, especially with a lot of planes. I could write a script to separate each element into an object and parent them all, but hand sorting after that is a pain. I'll try that 100% self illumination trick, I'm not bothered about the lighting so much as not having… -
Re: Snow Turret
Hey Jeff you have some nice details in there and the concept had some nice aspects to it but overall I just dont really get this as a turret. There are no common elements that this shares with a turret, for the most part I cant understand most of the forms going on here. Like Vig said it looks more like a snake guarding… -
Re: Alley Scene
Minor updates... Ive been up to my eyeballs in art tests and freelance for the past couple months, but I found some time to wrap up some wip elements on my alley scene, and polish some textures. JetPilot commented that my cinder blocks are way too big so Im going to fix that, and the white walls are just place holders for… -
Re: 40k pillar wip + introduction
Nice work! I feel like you have a really well done normal map, however when you are applying your diffuse and spec it really kills all the normal details. I would try to bump some more spec changes from the different materials on there to help make the different materials pop. I would also look into adding an ambient… -
Re: Server Room WIP
Which software did you do the meshes in? Could you give a bit of workflow info for your mesh elements, also, about units, how you made sure they fit the grid, and how you got the scale right. Also, the volumetrics, are they meshes or "real" volumetric? Haven't done too much in UDK yet, just a simple square room and… -
Re: Jungle Cabin
It's too clean. I imagine a jungle cabin would be worn down by the elements. Try adjusting the wood texture to look more aged, as it appears to be newly purchased and treated. Not realistic. And also, try to have fewer straight edges. Show more pieces sticking out more than others along the floor and walls. Add some trash,… -
Re: [UE4] Medieval Town (Improvement)
Building Update Been spending sometime designing the modular system for building_1, it features a lot throughout the scene so I wanted to create a system that would allow me to model variations that snap together easily. Also taking some advice from Tim about using prefabs to assemble elements. Really helpful especially… -
Re: AO in max using Mental Ray
You don't have to make your lowpoly non-renderable. Something simple that I do is before I'm about to render I go down on my lowpoly's modifier stack to Edit Poly, go into Element selection mode, select the entire mesh, and hide the faces. Then I go back up the stack to the projection cage. The lowpoly mesh should still be… -
Re: The Kriss
looking pretty close! the trigger holes should be circular, not square as you seem to have them now, but that's not really major... other than that, you're going to want to refine the forward grip shape more. the grip should look squeezed in toward the top before it widens out at the very top. while yours does taper, it… -
Re: CityEngine - a procedural city generator
I watched one of the vids on the site, and the dude demoed building a futuristic New York City based on a matte painting from Fifth Element. At one point he switched to his Maya scene where he had a bunch of polygon primitives which CityEngine was using to auto-generate his city. So I assume you'd be able to plug in your…
