Re: New Crysis level editor vid
The editor looks great.. My thoughts in no particular order: No more vis blocking needed for an FPS, or portal creation. The engine handles all of that. This is pretty huge IMO. The terrain editor in general was impressive. The carver, plus the vegetation creator was nifty. I wonder if you can control the grass with a… -
Re: Algorythmic Substance Painter and Designer
It's "Allegorithmic" not "Algorythmic". ;) And if you allow me, I will answer some questions. You can even get 4.6, our minor releases are free (but not our major, that's why you need to pay for SD5). I just wanted to comment about that because I can understand if people see Designer just being about "procedural" stuff… -
Re: New Life Scientific Corridor
I don't believe being realistic is his goal, otherwise he'd use mental ray... I personally don't use tiled shot (I use tiledshot 0 or tiledshot 1 on rare occasions) because it kills post-processing fx and in games we play at normal resolution. To set up a camera you need to have a camera actor in game, and use that to hook… -
Re: Turning MEGATHREAD's in to sub-forums, please read.
in that case: * Code formating for FX shaders, maxscript, melscripting and python scripting, or at least something that is available through the GUI of the bb. * Google redirected searching (this board search functionality just uber sucks like almost any other bb. * More integrated WIKI: easier access for those that… -
Re: If you could only choose three...
My top 3 for art technique / theory / method are; 1.Character Design Bibles volumes 1-5 (there were only 5 volumes ever published, but it's basically techniques / methods described in detail for the production of character design as done by some of Japan's top character designers. 2.Digital Character Design & Painting: The… -

Re: Special Effects Art Test...what to expect?
If you're a 3dsmax user, check out Allen McKay's stuff, he's worked on a lot high end stuff and is more then happy to share his wealth (of knowledge...). Watch his studio's game cinematic showreel, lots of stuff you'll recognize. It will also give you a good idea of what they might expect. His DVD's are great and so is the… -
Re: I got a question for game developers
I'd recommend not divulging too much time into any single asset before you get all the pieces working together in engine. For instance, get all the enviro, fx, animation, characters, and whatever other art assets for one level to passable quality and make sure it all works before you go into polishing of any specific… -
Re: Faceted [UE4]
My client wanted a visual way of having objects look like they're transforming into "digital data" / disappearing into the cloud, so I spent today figuring out how to make a dissolve effect I can key in matinee using world space position and the spheremask node. (watching the "Switch" game videos definitely was an… -
Re: Real-time rendering is getting pretty crazy
It really depends what you are rendering. if it is only alpha normal spec and diffuse they can be really close. if your scene enables refraction reflections etc etc things are different but indeed we are close to getting mR quality in real time. Just a few more years around the corner i would guess. for that quality that…
