Re: Xbox One
Current gen games are already exceeding 20GB. This aside, it is always safe to assume that before the end of a console generation, games will be exceeding the capacity of the storage medium presented - this is the same for game cartidges as it is for disks, and has been a factor in almost every console in the past 20 odd… -
Re: Photogrammetry - Texture baking - was I doing it all WRONG :-)?
Zbrush uses "uv matching" method while Marmoset, Substance Painter, Xnormal, and other bakers uses ray tracing. This means that the smoothing of the lowpoly is taken into account when you bake using ray tracing, while the uv matching method ignores the target mesh smoothing and therefore its shading. This can result in… -
Re: I got my dream computer. Here's how that went bad for me
UPDATE: I have an update! SUBHEAD: Unexpected Pitfalls So I got sick of microslop's shit for the very last time in November of last year. I didn't post on microslop's forums that I was switching to linux, and then keep using microslop's products. I just did a buncha research about which distro would be best for me and… -
Re: Lighting Portfolio Feedback
To add to the already mentioned critiques, looking at the Sun Temple work, I think there's some inconsistency in the light directions and colors. The day time lighting should be brighter and there should be more direct sunlight hitting the foreground statue on the right (depending on sun direction). I say this because the… -

Re: The Paying To Work For Free VFX Business Model
Since this thread is on page 1 again, lemme say I have to re-think my opinion on DD's pay for school + work. I was recently checking how my linkedin contacts are doing and saw that one has finally graduated from vfs and now works in the film industry as...a jr. roto artist. When I saw that I recalled immediately this… -

Re: Occupy Wall St
There is no point in taxing corporations simply because they will just pass the extra cost on to the consumers. Corporations may pay taxes (sometimes), but they get that tax money from us, the consumers. Raise their taxes and they'll just raise their prices or lower wages for employees. Corporations are externalizing… -

Tut: Baking AO Maps Using a Normal Map
The following procedure covers creating an Ambient Occlusion or "shadow map" using a normal map and low poly mesh in 3ds max 8. This may be old news for some of you, but it is a technique I learned recently so I thought that I would share. Some may ask "why not just use your high poly mesh and a projection modifier to…
