I tried to use Sampler few times through years and never found it any helpful really . Uninstalled it to save space. Just read it got some new AI upscale and photo to material . Is it worth a new try? Any better than before. Something that could take 2x2 meters megascan material and turn it into covering 10 meters long…
Hey BlueChaos. If you by any chance have time, I would love for you to continue. I think you are on the way for an awesome AHA experience and Move up in level with sculpting! I truly believe so. I know sometimes life can take over. But maybe moving over to just doing pieces of the body instead? Noses, Eyes, Ears and mouth.…
@FrankPolygon A sincere thank you for the detailed and comprehensive explanation! I knew something was wrong, but didn't realize it was multiple problems all happening at once. I believe you've saved me a lifetime's worth of trouble on this topic since it's kind of difficult to google if you don't know what the exact…
I think you should at least follow this: 5. Dust/moss/rust in areas where different parts meet is necessary for believability IMHO. I agree that it's a must have. I would also add variations to the planks ends. Then you should be much closer to a photorealistic asset. Personally I would definitely be interested in seeing…
Hey there, thanks for the critique, what is making the chest look like sculpted armor? He is supposed to be bare chested. if its the sharp falloff after the pecs, ill soften that transition. After getting critiques from others i believe that i am fusing way to many different designs into one and i'm going to go back and…
Well tbh the handling of the new hardsurface brushes in Z feels very random and hard to predict - I personally get much more controllable results using Muds 'update plane'-off. But yeah new things to explore for sure. All in one I am still a firm believer in following an existing pic used as a reference to build a basemesh…
I want my old powycount back :(. joke's fun, but this just burns my eyes. This theme reminds me somewhat of my avatar ;). can't believe some people actually like this better than the cool black theme. waaah is this text actually going to appear yellow? or is that just the type-in boxes? hehe EDIT: so it only fries your…
Ah, never doubting in my mind about new hires & believe me i'm not judging the industry to a whole percentage, but given i'm a west-coaster i'm just under the impression that I should avoid more west-coast jobs due to the state of how our economy is in/at. But I know it's just me thinking poorly over this situation, maybe…
I guess you could convert the vertex selection to edges and then apply the creasevalue to these. Or make a script out of this. Regarding this: I believe the new creasecontrol modifier in max 2015 allows this, watch some of the videos on the autodesk page. Then again, the autodesk implementation doesn't seem to use…
Thank you much for the feed back, I do have different shots on my website HERE and a turnaround done in marmoset I believe I can go down on the tires and get rid of some polys. Thank you here is an screengrab from MAX showing wires, it also looks like there is a seem but that is because of MAX's viewport. You should check…
