Re: Which software should i be learning for hard surface modeling in games?
Don't forget Blender, it could become the new Standard in the near future with the 2.8 so it is worth learning it in depth and it already starts to be used in AAA games like those by Epic Games and Blizzard (but mostly by independent external studios that do their skins and special events updates) and it is very popular in… -
Re: Useful UDK HLSL Trick
Cheers for the image. I was hoping to drop LOD's so that only the seams would appear and from there, isolate them via Lum or pad them (with a simple offset in 4 directions) with the colors of the original Cube (maybe even use Mip 1 or 2 since doesn't break too badly), and with the help of a slightly noisy Normal Map… -
Re: Concept art practice sketchpad.
I would really recommend taking several steps back. It seems all too common for folks to want to jump in to painting the super epic, complex ideas in their heads before they're ready to tackle them. At the moment you're painting big ideas, complex scenes with a large amount of strokes. Each one of them as a result winds up… -
Re: Destiny
So, let's speculate -- As Bigjohn said, it sounds like some kind of "raid" oriented, instanced MP game that plays a bit like Borderlands. I am expecting $5 DLC episodes. You will probably be able to buy those from the phone app, as well as have in-game chat, and friend-list style support. Content looks like a toned down… -
Re: What happened to modding?
Mods don't have to include environments. They could be purely code as an example. No giant amount of data to distribute there. Like what? Most of the modded titles around now are 5 years old, or even older. With what remains it's largely Source that retains a sizeable community (though Crysis is still dragging its feet).… -
Re: technical highpoly workflow tutorial and scripts..
I likewise maintain the edgeloops around my entire model. This way I can quickly use CSslide as a more efficient way of quickly moving my edgeloops nearer or further apart as I would manually with the gizmo and edge constraints applied to control the tightness or looseness of my edge curves. Even when it comes to hard… -
Re: A Question for You Designers...
Excellent posts. Daz: generally I was addressing character artists. I think I was expecting every company to demand artists of Epic quality nowadays Poop: very good post, but do you believe that companies will be using character generators? Even if it's focused on amazing gameplay, won't the assembly line figures ruin the… -
Re: Renders From My Demo Reel. (warning: 16 images)
Instead of repeating what's been said I'd like to point out that anyone who's lurked on this site as long as I have would be able to give you all the same advice and then some simply from the experience of reading these people critique each others stuff. For your instructors to not tell you any of this while they were… -
Re: 3ds smothing groups / Maya smoothing
Go here for all your Maya tut needs: www.digitaltutors.com check out all the free quicktimes. Things in Maya have different names than in Max, so you can't assume that because you can't find the exact feature in Maya that it was "not invented for Maya". Sorry about your shock-factor on using Maya. No, it doesn't need a… -
Re: Stylized Character - Asajj Ventress - Clone Wars
Really cool character! I like the version you chose to model and paint, the color choices are really nice together. I think the execution was great. I've only got a few critiques (just my personal opinions) I agree with Abrvpt in the fact that I think a pedestal would really help sell the model better. I'm not a fan of the…
