ZBrush hard surface help
I'm trying to create some flooring slabs in Zbrush and I'm having some trouble, I was hoping someone here might be able to give me a few pointers. I'm trying to do something similar to this awesome sculpt by Orb: http://orbart.free.fr/index.php?Gallery=103 but I can't seem to get my base meshes to work properly. I'm… -
Jack Thompson gets pwned HARD
http://yro.slashdot.org/yro/05/10/18/1516223.shtml?tid=153&tid=17 I'm sure most of you are familiar with the Jack Thompson situation and his "modest proposal" (I was going to post this in the previous thread, but it is buried and I figured this deserves its own thread). When confronted with Hellfish's mod for GTA, Thompson… -
Maya Scenes Criticism
I have be using Maya for a few months now and have created a whole bunch of stuff and learnt a lot. These are the two best pieces i've made and I was just looking on how I could improve my work. I have briefly used UE4 and don't know if I should put them into it to get my final image to show off my work. Any advice is… -

Re: Interview Question: What Games Are You Playing
Hah I agree with the "just say what you're playing". The number one piece of advice I've heard over and over again when I was asking for interview advice is "DON'T LIE!!" Seriously. Trying to play mind games with the interviewer is I duno.. Just list what you like to play. If the interviewer likes the same games, you can… -
Re: Graveyard Diorama
Thanks for the feedback guys. I'll take those points on board and adjust my scale and so on. It was like 3am when i blocked in the church (bad idea) but having been up for a few hours, i can tell that the scale is horribly wrong particularly on the church. I've built everything around my general height, as an estimate… -
Re: Ambient Occlusion Confusion
I'd advise against using Maya's transfer maps for baking AO. You've already come across one problem which is actually caused by the way Mental Ray generates AO. Whether your low poly is inside, outside or a mixture of both shouldn't be a factor when baking. Mental ray (wrongly) includes the bake target (i.e. your low poly… -
Re: An exercise in modular textures - Scifi lab UDK
The scene uses 1.3 mb of uncompressed texture memory for the entire environment. (not counting the lightmaps or the skydome) Its kind of hard to estimate how much more it would have used if it was unique instead, but probably 30-40 mb or so. As for framerate its no gain per se. If it was all unique it would be the same…
