Re: How's your new years resolution, fatties?

Re: Gloss (Spec Power) Not working
I mean any mathmatical way you can create higher values than 0-1 will work. A lerp is the best solution because it's 1 instruction on the GFX card (Mult+Add). You can get more complex results by using fresnel to modify your specular power but a lerp is pretty much the bread and butter of mixing values. -
Re: Metal Specular Maps - Your Methods
Ben you could probably use the Edit Normals mod, then use RTT to bake a normalmap. But Autodesk didn't really do a great job providing options in that modifier, like there's no soft-select. I think it'd be horrendous to have to rotate all those normals one by one. Hey CB that's pretty cool, I like the hatching on the globe. -

Re: Temporary invisibilization
Species files are different. When you have a species file on the client and not on the server (the most likely situation) you'll get kicked with "incompatible game version". It's all good when the server has and the client hasn't but the other way around will prevent you from joining. AFAIK nothing else short of modifying… -
Re: Vertex Lighting Bake - Thoughts?
Depends on the engine. Vertex color is very cheap rendering-wise, so it's an easy feature to implement. It's a little tougher on the artist, you have to subdivide your meshes so there are enough vertices in the right places, but it really isn't too hard. Max lets you easily bake lighting into vertex color (check out the… -
Re: Fable II
Celery has a -2 fatness modifier if you want to slim down quickly. On earning money, I reccomend bartending over forging and definitely over wood chopping. It's easier and you get money faster. Once you've got your artisan level, you'll have enough to buy yourself a nice shop and then you'll be set for life. -
Re: How do i model this ?
Look into floaters, as you mentioned you don't want to model each groove and solve its topology shading errors. If you want to give zbrush another shot, try using masks instead of sculpting right away. mask in the grooves, blur and invert when the selections look good, and use a soft brush or a deformation modifier like… -
