Re: Help: I'm desesperate with a Guitar Case Strap. (Rigging)
I definitely think skinning it to a null object is a good idea. Usually everything would be contained in a hierarchy, even for simple rigs like this. So there would be a root bone or main body bone for the lower part of the case, something that you could skin too that will move with the lower case and not the lid. If that… -
Re: [Portfolio] Robert Thomas, Environment Artist
For the Bridge, each screenshot you have are all pretty similar. Try picking 3-5 angles of what you want to show off the most... your best work, and post those. Right now I feel like I'm looking at the same thing in each screen and neither of them are telling me what's going on here. Is that a giant robo-arm or something?… -
Re: This website seems pretty slow
Well my post count has nothing to do with it. There is no money for me to make from this website. What does this site offer where it earns money from? Nothing. There is no profit in it for me. You guys mentioned traffic as a possible issue, not me. Is wanting a site/community I am passionate about to get better a bad… -
Re: Book Staff
@Jar3d - Thanks dude. I appreciate the feedback. @joshmtyler - I did a very basic blank in 3ds Max, mostly just simple shapes like cylinders, then brought into zbrush and Dynameshed all the wood stuff. Pulled roots out with snake hook brush and just kept dynameshing them as I went to keep geo in them. Mushrooms were just… -
Re: [UDK] Diorama : Old Gate
you may want to try and play with lighting and atmospherics a bit more. as of now the light seems untouched aside from the light shafts setting, and the fog in the scene sort of takes away from what this could be. on one hand you have the very saturated roof giving off a big bloom, and everything else looks a bit washed… -
Re: Max8: Wrapping a chain mesh around an object.
I think the splineIK solver was a good way to go. I'm not sure the design is the smartest, that could be a nightmare to animate the chain transitioning at the wrist... But sometimes we don't get to change the design and it sounds like you're stuck. This is one reason I like concept artists who know technical limitations.… -
Re: Who would vote for Hillary?
No I wouldn't vote for her. Voting for either party is a wasted exercise in the mockery we call democracy, in fact you might call it a (drum roll) demockery, AZ I'll let you have that one you earned it. Really is what we have now the best America has to offer? Or is it the product of a select few running out of the good… -
Re: 3ds max >> motion capture and freeform animation
While in mixer mode (little egg beater in biped menu) there are no curves or keys to edit, at least none that relate to what you see in the motion mixer. You'll have to create a mixdown and apply that to the biped, then exit mixer mode before you can edit the keys and curves on mixer animation. There could be keys already… -
Re: The industry Is collapsing, what are your thoughts?
doc: I disagree with your notion and the general thrust of this thread about evolution. I think theres a tendency to want to label things when theres blood in the water but the problems right now really are just being exagerated by the financial climate. The idiocy of the 'AAA mentality' and the 'at all costs ship for… -
Re: Is being a successful 3d artist a loophole?
You'll have to bear out my well worn pessimistic viewpoint here but I think the problem is that those guys make 'art' and want to continue to make 'art'. We in the games industry produce artifice. Theres a world of difference. Art is not appreciated in the games industry, artifice and the ability to quickly churn out…
