Re: Forest/Nature Environment
Yeah, ferns tend to grow in swarms. As in this image: (quite large, so I didn't embed it) http://gardenblog.winterthur.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/march-bank-ferns-7-17-2008-kls.jpg Otherwise, I like it. Things feel sort of flat though. Do you have spec-maps for the props? Also, the lighting itself feels quite flat too.… -
Re: Autodesk re-structuring and slashing 1,200 jobs
I think there needs some perspective here. Autodesk is a big company with many divisions and thousands of employees. The media & entertainment division (M&E) is one such part and the bit that most of us will be more familiar with due to its products - Max, Maya, Motionbuilder, etc. This division and products account for… -
Re: steam locomotive moving
And now,an overview of my third set of map! It contains all separate pieces except the pipes. It's already symmetrical and overlapped for the two sides. Final map will be a 2048², but I work with a 4096². My technic to pack it : Step 1 : separate :long and thin pieces, round pieces, square pieces and rectangular pieces and… -
Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
so i've been reading this topic from page 1 - 9. Totally love it. But i've got a couple of questions. now firstly let me make clear that i can make normal map from a HP box (soft edges) to a lp box.

Re: Characters Textures: Next Gen samples and sizes?
Im making it, working on the low poly right now as normal map is mostly done (just need a bit more detail integrated via bumpmap on clothing/hair before baking to normal). Not sure if I have not enough or too many edge loops in the face for facial expressions (hell still unsure if ut2k7 will allow morphs and bones, or only… -
Re: Eat 3D Coming Soon: Classical Sculpting and Anatomy
Its hard to post about this on an openly public forum because of all the legalities and whatnot. What it boils down to at the moment is we cant move forward with the situation as it stands. In the media it states Rod clearly said he uses the camera for sculpting reference and stored image/video on his hard drive. You can… -
Re: Unity3d PRO vs. Leadwerks?
I use Leadwerks for my projects at Pure3d Visualizations. :) The workflow has improved a lot with the current version 2.32-R5 and people can code with several languages or just go straight forward with LUA. Graphical Leadwerks is up to date with it#s deferred renderer. The editor is simply but intuitive. There was heavy… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Tom Poon
