Its polycount wiki mate... look on top right "Wiki" of the page. Though I wont suggest using 3D Coat or Modo or any other tool unless you feel comfy with unwrap itself and know how its working on your model. Sure you ll get away with the problem using these tools but if you will not know how stuff is working it ll be a…
speaking of save not working, 3d max just crashed on me which is usually not a problem because I ctrl+s every few mins, plus theres autobak that saves every few mins as well. But this time when it crashed I found out my saves and autobaks have not been saving for the past 2 hours... raaaaaaage! Just so that I stay on…
Hey dudes. Sorry i've been AWOL. I took some time out to work on a few new paintings + tidy up a game I was making in Unity with a few friends. Then got hit with a crazy stomach virus that de railed me for a few days. It's January now, hope everyone's had a nice new year - mine is starting with the stench of tardiness! The…
I've finally launched my new site featuring alphas/stamps made from 3d scans, its called Surface Mimic. Back in August 2011 I posted examples of some of my experiments to ZBC and here at polycount, and thanks to the feedback and encouragement from you guys, this is the result. Special thanks to all the beta testers who…
Hi guys, as always in my mission to become a better 3d Modeller :) I have some time (1 year) without modelling a thing (have been taking useless classes in the Uni) and I have to confess that I have lost some sort of knowledge or skill. That's why i ask your help to solve this issue :P Here i have a basic model that is…
Hey there, my name is Tim. I'm new to the community here at Polycount. Looking forward to just working on my 3D skills and hopefully get some input. And eventually give some input of my own to those I can help. I've been out of touch from 3D for a couple years now and got a lot of catching up to do. Not to mention learn a…
Hello, this is sort of tangential to the game & 3D art world, but I expect there is at least some overlap that can be of use. I am looking for communities like polycount but geared toward digital design & visual communication (Think social media content, Adobe Suite, etc). My work requires me to produce a lot of content in…

Heya Polycount, I'm making this thread to show my progress of an environment piece I started a day ago or so ago. I have never attempted an environment before, so this is all new to me. Any advice/tutorials/critique/comments are much appreciated! (P.S. This is not the city from Game of Thrones.):( If anyone knows the…
Hi Polycount users! I have made a model and have exported it from 3ds max to mudbox. I have then sculpted seams around it and generated normal map as a test before i begin detailing. HOWEVER lol It is having some really strange results :/ The normals seam to be inverting in certain areas on the shells for no apparent…
