Re: sort of motivational post... sort of.
well, i have paid freelance gigs, so i'm not "technically" unemployed. but those are starting to dry up as clients want to work more with outsourcing studios and less with solo artists. i attribute this to, as a client grows, so do their needs, and i recognize that although i have a lot to offer any client who needs my… -
Re: Signals Without Sound - Music
OK, I'm back home and listening on my proper monitors, the cymbals are definitely still way too high in the mix. Also the bass and mids don't really sound strong enough, everything seems pretty treble-heavy. How are you doing the bass for this track? That said, this is sounding really good already. I think your vocal style… -
Re: The Monthly 'Noob' Character Challenge (01/14)
If you have so many polygons that it makes working though you should rethink how you approch modelling. You don't have to use so many polies to sculpt. You can subdivide before baking but after modelling. Using low subd levels efficiently is really important. You can also use dynamic solo mode in Zbrush if your machine… -
WIP images from my UDK game, Homesick.
I love this forum, all the awesome work and advice on here. I thought I'd finally share a bit of my WIP. This is a 3d exploration / puzzle game I'm working on. I'm doing everything except the music :) Most of these are getting close to final I think, but the set dressing will probably change a bit. This one isn't really… -
The City's Secret
Wasn't going to post this until it was fully finished in December, but hell, I couldn't resist =p Concept by Shaddy Safadi. Inspiration from Nichol Normans work in the game version. Nov 14 Update: My current priority is to get rid of the BSP walls and fix the proportions(their currently all over the place). Having trouble… -
Athonite - Narrative Exploration Game - Stylised Byzantine Monastery
Athonite is a short first person 'walking simulator' with platforming elements, which I am creating as a solo final year project for my course at the University of Hertfordshire. I have been working on it for about four months and it is scheduled to be completed in May 2018. It is set in a fantasy - alternate history… -
THRONE ROOM - The King Lives Here - Yasmina
I'm currently studying 3D game art, and I thought this would be a cool chance to push myself, as I've never really done something like this solo. Concept: A fort inside a kid's bedroom, sign on the door saying "The King Lives Here". I had this idea earlier that I wanted to explore. I always loved making forts when I was a… -
help! changed baking options and material preview?
help! The preview material option doesn't seem to work in 3.04 for me, at least not like it did before. Albedo bake doesn't show up at all. Normals also look off in the preview window, though correct in the bake (they kind of look how they do in maya when set to SRGB instead of raw, it has a weird sheen that makes me… -
Re: Lack of Interest/Motivation
Don't feel bad about it - everyone goes through this (some of us may or may not have been repeating the cycle for 20+ years) Solo working is the hardest thing in the world, it takes a huge amount of discipline and process to see a project through The secret is to break your project into small tasks that are achievable in… -
Re: next-next gen is terrifying?
As with most things, you're looking at the end result and thinking it's a 2 year project at best when in reality you're missing all of the iteration and thrashing that goes on. It's like when I was making Quake levels back in the day ... I can look at some of those levels now and think, "I could do that over a weekend!".…
