Re: $100,000,000.00
ebagg: Here's a link to the story "The ads will initially appear in Battlefield 2142, apparently because gamers from the future have traveled back in time to tell EA that combat is only realistic when it features billboards promoting Visa." And, though I havent seen it confirmed, I've heard rumors that the C4 is being… -
Re: Stylistic CGFX Shader
cw> My initial idea was to get the feel of a 2D comic in that the crosshatch would not wrap around the form, it would always be planar aligned with the camera. That's also what I'm doing at the moment through a planar projection in Maya. Feeding the camera values to the projection and thereby making the hatch follow the… -
Re: can you name your favourite film in one?
Raiders of the Lost Ark Haven't seen it in a while, but I saw it four times in its initial release. I knew nearly nothing about it going in, and I was floored the whole way through. Lucas and Spielberg, two of the most influential 'pop' directors of their time, collaborate on pure, unadulterated fun. They took old-school… -
Re: Big chunky bastard (now with more lowpoly fun)
All fair points, thanks. I guess my initial concern was wondering if not venturing far past this current tri count of about 1k would leave the model in the no-man's land of a little too low for "next(current?)gen", and way too high for "pastgen" (handheld). I'll go ahead and take your advice of leaving myself a healthy… -
Re: Adobe: Flashwars
I would agree, people should look at what HTML5 actually does. <video></video> is all you need. You put the video link in there. You can use many of the popular compression formats. There are commands to allow it to show controls and autoplay. It's essentially a build in video player, but it's just html markup with a link,… -
Re: what if ... viewport navigation was taken care of for you ? maxscript idea
How well would that work for us mentally though? You know the cinematography rule not to rotate the camera too far between shots? I'm imagining it could work that way. At least when we manually choose a view radically different from our current, we are mentally expecting it since we made the choice, if something rotates… -
Re: Help with Remington ACR Stock
The reason you're struggling, as you'd commented in the subdiv modeling sticky is because like most people new to hardsurface they'll initially see something badass cool then without a second thought to learning the basics: https://www.ebalstudios.com/blog/polygon-modeling-basics or any attempt to first properly blockout… -
Re: [New Challenge] Traditional Animation
Thanks @_adamturnbull !! I am using Photoshop ( and after effects to help me with the initial gray areas by using the bevel and emboss effect). I am going to switch to flash to get better/cleaner shapes.Also I don't quite like the onion skin photoshop has haha but sure, I can do later a breakdown with every frame :) . I… -
Re: Sharp Edges in One Smoothing Group [UDK/3DS Max]
Thank you for you great answers, but it seems I can't achieve it that fast wird 3DS Max. Given the temporary time-limit I have for the project right now, I think I drop the idea for now using weights. It looks like Maya is using it as a standard, but 3DS Max don't? This weight-painting in Max looks a lot more complicated,… -
Re: Pet Peeve: Sloppy work. Or: How Anal Am I?
either A: Its a messup /holdover from initial box definition settings B: The artist thought it would be a vertex lit asset and took a random stab at where to put a cut But as you said in your first post The player won't notice it, and it doesn't present a performance concern, so really the stress and effort you put…
