Re: UVs: More Maps VS. Bigger Maps?
We've had better results with using multiple smaller maps instead of giant maps like 4k. Giant textures are bad for streaming and often take up more space in the pool than they should. Non-square textures (like 2048x512) are fragmenting the streaming pool and should be avoided. I think UDIM style texturing will be a good… -
Re: Unreal Engine 3 Questions.
I suppose I will search for this term. I just do not understand what it means. If I am to assume, is this the preloading of other levels -around- the level you are in? Like streaming a video before you watch it? ::Edit:: http://www.hourences.com/book/tutorialsue3streaming.htm Oh my word?! This is alot to take in. So,… -
Does anyone use Sampler AI or any other image to height AI?
Each update I waste some time to see if Substance Sampler AI does anything useful finally and always just shrug and go away. Image to material usually does something just marginally better than old crazy bump . Ads halos around height details and looks same awful at sharp light angles. Surprisingly it sometimes works… -

Re: Substabce Designer Indie - any limitation?

Re: How The F*#% Do I Model This? - Reply for help with specific shapes - (Post attempt before asking)
@christrom Not a problem, glad to help. I do ocassionaly post longer write-ups in my sketchbook thread here on polycount but no e-book, yet. Thank you for the kind words. It's nice to see a follow up post with a second iteration of the model. The geometry distribution is much more consistent and the loop flow is a lot… -
Re: unity games are cool - interstellar marines
games like this make me think, why couldn't the newest final fantasy (or insert whatever game) be playable through the web like this. It's instant DRM for one. You have to buy a login and you stream the game's levels as you play. You can easily have ads on the site providing additional revenue. I'm sure for huge games you… -
Re: New 3dmotive DVD
you know that kinda sucks :( When I did that feedback for 3dmotive for their new direction I didn't know that they were talking about getting rid of the option they had and going to only subscriptions. I keep up to date with all the videos, so I don't want to have to pay a monthly/ month to month subscription to only… -
Re: How do you guys push yourself to practice art?
What helps me a bit is streaming. Once I press that "start streaming" button I know that I have to 100% focus on making art and I can't go and check polycount, reddit or etc every 20 minutes. Working 2-3 hours per day is okay. I can't work for more than 4 hours in one sitting because I get burnt out and need to take a… -
Re: The Future of the Dota 2 Workshop
I can see how it could be a misunderstanding and all, but where does he gets the votes then if not from scammed accounts/bots? He doesn't have a following on Twitter, and the only other media where he can apparently promote the items is through streams, but have anyone ever seen he promoting it? Also, if he is just…
