Hey all, I'm just looking for some suggestions on some good books to pick up, the last book I read was "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy which was a pretty nice read, but now I hunger for more knowledge then anything else really. I'm personally interested in the unknown or the human sub-conscience, anything that dives deep…
Long shot, but I'm hoping someone in this community might be able to help with a preservation project. Chromacolour (the UK-based animation supply company behind the cel paints used on films like *Who Framed Roger Rabbit*) sold three digital color palettes up until around 2012: - **Series 100** — 600 colors - **Series…
Avoid over spending and buying things on credit unless you really need them like a car. Going out and fournishing your new pad on a deal like "no payments for 1 year" or "90 days same as cash" will more than likely bite you in the ass. If you don't manage to pay it all off before the time runs out you normally get charged…
The first of the act of the movie was great, pretty much flawless in my opinion. But the movie started struggling almost as soon as Han Solo entered the story. Although still very enjoyable, from that point on a lot of the progression of the story seemed forced, contrived and rushed. The script should probably have been…
Here's a sculpt from a tutorial I followed over the weekend. I feel like I am slowly starting to learn zbrush. Now I just need to improve my artistic abilities. Next month I start my second AnimSchool class `Into to 3D Modeling`. I am looking forward to it.
It's out now on Live (for gold members at least). It is pretty awesome. SOOOOOO much destructable stuff. Some pretty cool combos. Looks like you will be able to customize your lightsaber and Force powers in the final (judging by the greyed out options). Difficulty on Sith Warrior (normal) is pretty good. A little learning…
Scotty? About 1/2 as much As Sulu. Saidin - what about Batman Begins and Dark Knight? No regard for timeline that's already occurred. But those two movies were far superior to the previous ones (imo) and damned good regardless. With Star Trek (notice no post-title name) is like a reboot of the franchise, a passing of the…
@zylan Determining if a high poly mesh is acceptable really boils down to how closely the shapes in the model match the shapes in the references and whether or not the topology subdivides cleanly, without generating any noticeable smoothing artifacts or other surface quality issues. If the shapes and surface quality checks…
Hello Polycount people. Hopingone of you might be able to assist me. I am currently in the middle of a game level building / testing project, and I would like to use UDK's gamestats system to generate heat maps for some play test sessions I've got lined up All I've been able to fathom so far is how to get the browser…
Hi again. As it always happens, every time I try to start a new topic on this forum something distracts me from working on a model. :) But now I'm back to share some progress. I've been working on the tracks and the side part of the model. So far I've made a draft lowpoly, highpoly and a test bake. The trickiest part was…
