Sketchbook: Sage
Decided to start up a sketch and progress thread. Feel free to leave feedback, since I find it helpful. Here is a dungeon environment I have had in my head for a few months now. I decided to do a sketch to see what was on my mind. I decided to do this based on a sculpture project I did for school back in 99. Planning on… -
Re: Call of Duty: Ghosts
Depends on the platforms you are playing it on. If you're on PC, I would honestly suggest just waiting. If IW treats this game like MW3, then it won't be fixed. If they treat it like BO2, then it'll be solid in a couple of weeks. I'm 99% sure they'll give it the MW3 treatment though, you should just wait until March when… -
Re: Are plugins and mods a bad thing for new users?
But then again, since they added the Graphite Modelling tools, how many external plugins are used anymore for modelling? I can't see why plugins like Quadchamfer and Quadcap would have any large impact on how you do things, they just fix what is broken in Max as a standard but works like a charm in nearly all the other 3d… -
Re: The Hobbit
I totally stand by this and loved the style of the film. But when a film really, really doesn't need to be 3 movies, you have to think "maybe we don't need a 5 minute scene of dwarves falling though caves. maybe that 6 weeks could be spent polishing some of the unfinished shots." The sequence you mention being done in 6… -
Re: Why doesn't the game industry unionize already?
I don't know about other countries, but I'm like 99% sure they can fire you over that in the US. A lot of places force you to sign paperwork before getting hired that basically says they can let you go for whatever reason they feel like without any explanation required. I've heard Walmart in particular will fire people for… -
Re: Switching Between Objects' Sub-Objects (3ds Max)?
Hey Vig. I navigate that way too. It only works for sub-object modes at the top of the stack though. A lot of the time I have an editable poly/spline at the bottom of the stack with deformers on top. Ideally, it would be great to be able to click on an object and be at the same sub-object of the same modifier that you were… -
Re: Hard drive shortage
So this is it. The reason people will start buying SSD drives is because the other products has become expensive, not because it's better. Human nature is so fickle. EDIT: Just looked up some numbers on the cheap, and bloody hell: A 100GB SSD for around 169$ A 100GB HDD for around 100$ I bought a 1TB external HDD for under… -
Re: Clean bakes
i always have the backface culling checked so if the normals would be inverted i would see,also i don't think that dota 2 engine support double sided meshes so i would have to reverse the normals manually :D i'm 99% sure that the problem is from the smoothing and the way i smooth the mesh because the OS is baking fine so… -
Re: UV layout of large objects (Buildings, etc)
You guys keep talking about the need for the UV editing, but the other thread link I posted in my first reply deals with avoiding that, and still being able to use texture atlases if required. You just do things in a different order. Also, it's worth noting that if you are in a situation where you need to move UV's around… -
Re: Devolution of Design
Then why is it called Windows 8 and you can 'update' to it from Windows 7 on a desktop?:poly122: For posting on the facebooks and logging onto the twitters, there's plenty of space for that on 99% of desktops. Win7 had a perfectly working taskbar and those gadget things. With the taskbar basically taking the application…
