Re: Blitz Open Day Madness: Street UDK scene
I feel that you can take this a lot further and make it into a kickass portfolio piece. Here's what's bothering me: Theme - You got a lot mixed up here! This doesn't look Mediterranean to me. You got some arabesque patterns on the walls, the first thing that came into my mind was Portugal's moorish architecture. Take a… -
Re: How we created fluidmeshes and clouds for Battlefield 1
I'd love to see some examples of raymarched volumes running on this scale! As for papers, check this presentation out: http://www.frostbite.com/2015/08/physically-based-unified-volumetric-rendering-in-frostbite/ On Page 42 you can see one of my early tests for the cloudsetup where we still tried to use volumetric shading.… -
Re: UDK Overgrown Greenhouse Environment (Need Feedback)
The grass needs a great deal of work. The texture is rather bland, and the models are clearly just billboards; at the very least add a second segment so you can bend them. The grass also seems too large compared to the ferns. I'd seriously consider removing it entirely, possibly replacing it with some appropriate weeds.… -
Re: Interior ship overhaul for "Spocean"
@Prtofdacrowd: Thanks, you're so right about realizing that enough is enough. Some clever filmmaker once said "a film is never finished, only abandoned". With 3D art, finishing seems even more impossible, since at any given moment you can just redo almost everything at any time, with your own personal resources being your… -
Re: Modular Hand Painted Building
@Fenyce: Awesome link, I'm going for a lower tri count than his, but I'll definitely grab some idea from him, I'm still getting the hang of how to UV properly on tiled textures. @ToffeApple: Thanks for the critique. I have a some concept references that gave me some idea for individual pieces, but the texture pallet is my… -
Re: Steampunk R2D2
Mesh is looking good, a little more geo on some places wouldnt have hurt tho, mainly the upper legs. Also im not so sure with the gold reflections & specularity, you could try out a little more there. The presentation is a big letdown here. Black to grey gradients scream "cheap viewport grab" and they drag your object down… -
Re: Normal map PNG artifacts?
Maybe I'm super old school but why would you use a compressed, lossy format at all? Especially when an engine is going to compress it further. You might as well feed it the highest quality image, uncompressed format you can. TGA and TIF can be saved with no compression they are lossless, so you get a pixel perfect image… -
Re: Bed Room [need help and advice on materials]
hey folks, thanks for your comments! @jessica: thank you for the kind words, still trying to push it a little further, though... I will, as you said, tone the "rainbow" down :) Its just a post effect. @alberto: its "chromatic abberation", a lens effect. thanks for the nice words :) @daniel: yes, please help me! i am using… -
Re: Normal Map Help
okay, first of all thanks to everyone who has answered my question! I finally got my model into Zbrush, worked pretty well. Now, hopefully someone knows how to answer this, now, i want to experiment with this idea in max, creating my lo poly, and then my high, and using RTT to project hi onto lo. Ive read Mop's tut on… -
Re: AVP2
My opinion holds and yes after awhile I was like wtf I love the all the violence but after awhile it did kind of bug me. Still I enjoyed everything that got killed, I won't go with spoilers yet but it was fun. I did feel the Predator was misused in this film just like in the first AVP, but seeing the aliens have a feast…
