Re: Max vs Maya
Hi everyone, I just joined the site as well. I started with 3DS Max R2 but went on to Maya since 2.5. Strictly speaking from an artist viewpoint Maya has the upper hand over Max when it comes to interface usability. Max definately has the advantage in rendering, lighting, maybe even modeling (Maya has NURBS though). I… -
Re: Alex - SF 3rd Strike
About the face, besides that it looks old, it doesn't really look like Alex to me. http://www.fightersgeneration.com/np2/char1/alex-3rd.jpg I think Alex looks more like Layne Staley. http://static.respectance.com/m1/photos/2li860pd499brr_f.jpg http://www.fanoos.com/ia/layne_staley.jpg… -
Re: poly to voxels?
what if he wants super low res voxels, like how voxels used to be? There is Qubicle http://www.minddesk.com/?page_id=243 Which has a 3d voxel editor and maya plugin / script to convert texturized meshes into 3d voxel objects. A bit crazy expensive but certainly interesting to check out. I wrote one script myself to do that… -
Re: New ISS Work, Buildings
Your perspecive is way off. Judging from the size for your door a human would need a latter to climb up those stairs. Make sure that you are building stuff to scale. Start off with a box 6 feet tall by 2.5 feet wide and base all your objects off of that. I would say that this model is about 10% done like Rnderhjs said you… -
Re: What's causing this artifacting?
Well, I was using the 2.5 Star supersampler, but disabling it has no discernible effect on the resulting map whatsoever. I'll bear that in mind for future reference, though, cheers Eric. Even though there's not much difference between the high and low, I'd really rather figure this out than bevel the edges, as the count is… -
Re: job interview, 2-3 hours, why so long?
Yep, I think that's a reasonable amount of time. For my current job, I had a phone interview that lasted about half an hour, then went in shortly after that for an in person chat. That took about 2.5 hours. I talked to HR, signing the forms and stuff like that, then talked to 2 groups of people including leads, project… -
Re: (FINISHED) California Gas Station Environment (UE4) (NEW REMASTER UPDATE (8/8/24)
Well I don't have wireframes for literally everything sadly, but I do have some props in this scene uploaded individually with wireframe breakdowns! And you can check them all out here! https://www.artstation.com/artwork/29eo8A https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Jv5B4m https://www.artstation.com/artwork/QXkDZ3… -
Re: Low polygon modelling old OS what software?
I still have a functioning HP c600 Notebook Pentium 2 (WIN XP) with 1GB HDD that runs a Blender 2.5 build on it. So considering both your targeted genre and legacy hardware config you're utilising at the moment I'd say you'd be more than adequately catered for by just grabbing a copy and test it for yourself to see what… -
Re: Victorian portrait
Well done! Something you can also do to get more specific strands for your upper hair layers, is pumping up the alpha dither to 2 or 2.5. That gave me a result had the masked quality of Cutout Transparency, but the edge softness and texture quality of Dithered Transparency. EDIT: Question, did you also to an anistrophic… -
Re: PBR for tree barks and leaves
This shouldn't be translucency because its not semi see through - only when its hit by the light from the back. You should rather try some subsurface shader. The 215 spec value sounds insane for me for something dielectric. Thats close to the reflectivity value of the most of the metals. Generally, on the most of the…
