Re: Chances of working with 3DS Max vs Maya in the industry?
I used maya about 10 years ago in collage, i didn't really get into it as much as i probably could have, they didn't teach us as much as they could have, like particles and physics and such, but i remember the one thing i hated about maya back then, apart from the UV system was the Hyper shade material window, i switched… -
Re: Totally new. Completely lost.
welcome to Polycount! you might want to concentrate your efforts on one thing at a time, learning 3D basics first for example, and maybe programming later if you ever get to it, but theise are two different jobs all together. So if you are more of an artsy person, i would stick to 3D! ;) You will also want to look up the… -
Re: PP-19 Bizon-2, Everyone needs a gun in their portfolio!
Hey thanks for the comments, much appreciated :) @GAZU I agree the scratches are OTT in places, especially on that fifth image, the IBL and direct lights are not favorable either to the roughness. Would loved to have found the time to paint in all the detail manually. M4 certainly the most popular, I've also notice making… -
Re: [CE3] - ScottHomer's Destruction Dioramas
Both look great, I know you're gonna be working on it the stately home this weekend so poke me if you need me to be a little clearer with my crit :) Generally it looks really slick , I think the webs'd be a great addition but I think when you do then don't stick to the thin spindley webs that won't really read and go for… -
Re: Official Windows on Apple solution
Then you're stuck in the past and wasting your time Basically, web standards didn't exist when these browsers were released, so as devlopers we shouldn't feel committed to support what is a very low percentage of viewers, who see the whole internet broken anyhow. Sticking to ONLY new and current standards (even though they… -
Re: Environmental prop:Wooden light consistancy test
Wow looks great! In the future you might like trying out a program like wood workshop to start as a base for your wood textures. Not that you didn't do a good job, or learning to make wood on your own isn't valuable... but now that you have shown you can you might want to take the quick/easier approach next time =) (And… -
Re: Modo vs blender for pure modelling and texturing
I tried out modo for a brief while but decided to stick with Blender when I found out that Blender gives u the option to use Maya's navigation and key configurations while working and its now very similar to how u work in Maya. With the sculpt mode,I can easily move a lot of vertices around,after adding edge loops where I… -
Re: Head Topology
Scared of tris and poles? If you take a look at a UT3 head, found in the SDK, this is what you get: Not so neatly organized, right? but real time meshes are meant to be efficient, so the main thing you need to focus on is the silhouette, the pure black version at the bottom. Rule of thumb is: edges that don't contribute… -
Re: High to Low Poly Workflow?
For you guys that are in the game industry full time just keep in mind that usually a huge amount of what you do is not taught in school or books, and usually schools and books say to do the opposite. Hell when it come to normal mapping the tutorials in max say you can't overlaps/mirror uvs, but with game art you pretty… -
PC-CSGO | Mp9 Adrift
Again sticking to my space theme, here is a new mp9 skin that I am working on. Looking at a bunch of mil-spec guns in the game, I notice they are all very monochromatic, whereas they either just have one design pasted over the entire thing, or have a very simple one to two color pattern, such as the mp9 poison dart. With…
