Some important info about using it... you have to be in a Perpective viewport and you have to be above the surface looking down towards the z=0 grid plane. So, it's kind of fiddly. Can save a lot of time though. Some details that might help you... ====================== From: Zola Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2004 4:34 AM…
Cheers for the critisism. the project is based onthe chernobyl area. Ref kidd of speed i am trying to recreate a gritty deserted area which looks like people just left in an instant. I did have the runners of the roller door but they are not textured yet, i have issues with the tiling and wanted to sort that before i…
It looks like you have 5 or 6 texture maps? Why? this could be done very easily with only one map at 1024 or 2048 resolution. Like Serei and David Wilkins said the model seems pretty blocky for something using 8k tris, it needs some optimization for sure. There are lots of places you continue cuts through the geometry when…
@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…
I just finished my 3D Art final project - you can view the video here! Grading for the project that applies to the final clip: - Animation is created at 30 frames per second and is at least 15 seconds (450 frames) long. Outstanding 9-10 points, Very Good 8 points, Acceptable 7.5 points, Poor 1-7 points - Used at least two…
Sony - PS3 slim is revealed, proving the leak recently is true, which is a shame because its ugly as hell. Price drop is ignored and instead they will pull the old switcheroo on us... "Why have a price drop when we can give you new hardware!". A few new games, most of which won't impress. God Of War 3 trailer and playable…
Hmmm maybe in chronological order. 1982 - Finally beating Donkey Kong. So many quarter wasted. 1987 - Beating the first Leisure Suit Larry game 1993 - Having visions of running through hallways with WW II Nazi emblems after playing Wolf 3D 1993 - Sitting alone for hours playing Blake Stone. Really started getting me into…
The baking took so long because i think it was using micropoly displacement, which ended in those 300k polygons to be baked, that said, it wasnt very long for a 300k model The Difference of baking vs. running the image through the PS filter is that the PS filter doesn't support gradients, it merely does bevels around any…
Hello, I would like to share the process of creating my second pack of props that I am sending to the UE Marketplace, just like the first one, it deals with following a very specific style of content that we find in local neighborhood commerce, This volume is a completely modular and customizable newsstand. This work also…
Well, the first step isn't really to wonder how to do this or that in the so-called "best" way imho ; the first step would be to get one's hands on a material/shader for a 3d app or game engine (or an easily moddable game really) that supports the effect, and use it in practice. Otherwise you're bound to operate on mostly…
