Re: Portfolio Critique - THANKS!
It's purely the lack of complexity in the model itself. The chair and X-Wing compared to your Alien Monster Scene is like comparing the X-Wing to Legoland :D In short: The X-Wing and Chair are not a lot of work and can be done very fast and therefore don't offer a lot to look at. They are not bad, they just are not "a lot"… -

Re: UV Coordinates in Shaders
That gets trickier... I think once you've gotten the world position you need to rotate it's X and Y components and feed it back in to a new vector... newX = X * cos(45) - Y * sin(45) newY = Y * cos(45) + X * sin(45) -
Re: [Maya] Hotkeying Shading -> Wireframe on Shaded
Welcome mate, my pleasure. And don't forget to use X-Ray for modeling (paste command on Alt-X like in Max) X-Ray> string $panel = `getPanel -wf`; if ( `modelEditor -ex $panel` ) modelEditor -e -xray ( !`modelEditor -q -xray $panel` ) $panel; -
Re: Interior Environment with Hero Assets WIP Log: 1960s Apartment Crime Scene
Thanks! Super excited to continue sharing updates. You're spot on regarding the camera hero; my original research for this project led me to the Graflex Speed Camera (with many of my references below being from 1960s models/videos of fixing up ones from that time period.) Your note on long exposure, angle, and it being… -
Re: [Maya] froTools : a maya toolset for working faster
Well, there's actually a script out there for object based x-ray view. I think Maya's default x-ray viewport option applies to the whole scene. A custom shader might be cool, but also may not be necessary because an x-ray view is typically independent of the shader. -
Re: ZBrush: Mirroring Geometry?
Lupus, actually you can make Smart Resym mirror along X, Y or Z axis, look for the little dark box to the right of the button with tiny X Y Z text, you can click those on or off to highlight them. It's just that X is the default. -
Re: How much to charge for this sort of freelance work?
Minimum wage in Massachusetts is $11. Times 3 is $33. I have 25 years experience. If the x in 1.x is meant as for single-digit years, then 25 = 2.5. 33 x 2.5 is $82.50. That's pretty steep. But funny enough that's close to my upper end. Looks like I need to be charging more haha. -
Re: MODO - UV from Smoothing group
thanks farfarer, do you think it's something that could be scriptable? Create a "Group #x" X and Y coordinates for the bounding box of the group itself, then take subtract the difference of each inner islands real x,y or is that crazy? Gonna look up some example scripts now... -
UVing Large Object and Low Resolution
I am trying to create a texture of a large potter with the dimensions 12m x 3m x 1m. I have tried several ways of Uving it and bringing it into quixel for texturing, and they each present different issues when finally viewed in a game engine (UE4 / cryengine). 1st way of unwrapping = low resolution up close If I unwrap the…
