Re: The Monthly 'Newb' CHARACTER Challenge | July 2014 | Multiple Pieces
Sorry it's been a while, i've been wrestling with this normals issue but i can't get it. Can i ask everyone's advice, please? I made a high poly (180k tri) and then a mid poly (16k) and the idea was to use normal maps to generate the detail. I've never done a normal map before so i may be doing something hideously wrong… -
Re: Nintendo 2DS, plays all 3DS games in 2D
Arg, Nintendo continues the pattern of each portable device iteration taking a step forward in one direction, while taking away a feature that they made standard with previous versions! Back when the GBA SP came out, I loved the new flip open style, it made it more compact, while protecting the screens, but with that… -
Baking alpha cards to low poly for vegetation
Hi Guys! First post on the forum but have been browsing for a little while. People seem very helpful and knowledgable, learnt a lot from just reading posts on here. Now to my question. I am trying to create some low poly vegetation by baking alpha cards down to a single square texture. I have already done this with just… -
leCop
Hi there, So I thought I'd rather stop hijacking the WAYWON since I am near halfway throught that model now. Basically I'd like to have this one done rather quickly, sticking to a daily pace of updates. I see this mostly as an exercise in both hardsurface sculpting and UT3 implementation. Not much new today, just… -
Hobbyists/hobbyists turned professional: How do/did you make time?
I'm trying to build up my portfolio enough so that I can safely apply to work in the industry. But it keeps feeling like I have to work hard at sacrificing a lot of time, and upset people around me, in order to make time to work on both 2D and 3D art. Working 40 hours a week, sleeping 7 hours a night, hour long commutes to… -
Dr.No's lair- James bond UE4 Environment - need critiques
Hey PC, long time no post. I've been chipping away at this enviro for my portfolio. I'm at a point now where I would like any feedback I can get on it. I still have some blockout geo in there for some props(lamps, bureau, bear rug). I also feel like it needs a lot more micro population. Things like books etc on the desk… -
Is it ever okay NOT to connect vertices?
In a low-poly game model, is it ever okay to NOT connect vertices and instead just have a poly-face stick into a mesh? Example: An arm connects to the shoulder of a character. You connect the shoulder vertices to the top of the arm vertices. Could it be appropriate to just have the arm stick into the body and not actually… -
Re: BlazBlu is out. Fighting game fans take notice
Yeah I'm planning on picking this up, although my heart is still set on King of Fighters XII. So this may take a back seat to both SF4 and KOFXII unless a solid community is built up around it. By the way has anyone tried this game with any of the fighting sticks? None of the reviews that I've read mention this and I was… -
Re: Forest Creek (WIP)
You should try to find more reference of this location, so you can see it from different angles, closeups, without the motion blur, etc. One image isn't going to give you enough information, especially when you're just starting out. A lot of reference is key! Landscape in games typically mixes two main techniques...… -
Re: Normal map skewing after baking in Substance Painter
Assuming no cage.. It's caused by the normals on your low res mesh being set incorrectly. If you have average normals ticked, untick it. If you then have issues, set up smoothing groups/hard edges properly on the mesh. There's plenty of detail on that in the sticky threads at the top of the technical talk forum
