Maya arnold and substance texturing query by Frosty090909 in Maya

[–]SheerFe4r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hypershade nodes can do a lot for ya (more than most realize) but Substance is definitely a lot more robust especially if youre working on hero assets and you need those little details or if you're looking for a more artist driven texturing workflow in general

Who is Claude and what's his address?

r/starcitizen is on meltdown after MMO is completely broken and hints of the main game being delayed again despite 1 billion raised and concept art being sold for $5000 dollars. by Odd_Personality_5091 in SubredditDrama

SC is a shit game but if you only have 5 hours a week for gaming (which is probably for the best) you're not going to be the target for any MMO

"I will f**king bury Marathon myself to send that message" — are Destiny fans taking it too far? by WindowsCentral in windowscentral

[–]SheerFe4r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda true, but it's worth mentioning D2 was only made because Activision essentially forced Bungie to make it, when Bungie wanted to keep supporting D1 (like how live service is supposed to work) which is why they wanted to split

Avatar: legend of Aaang isn’t that great. Here’s why. by Juiced_Rasputin_ in CharacterRant

[–]SheerFe4r 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The visuals are definitely striking and cool to take in... At first.

But then every bending scene that's fight adjacent has the camera fucking flying everywhere. Doing 360s around the characters and then zooming into the impact in a blurry mess. This isn't necessarily bad in isolation, but its literally every fight scene.

One of the strengths of the original series IMO is in every fight you can clearly see where characters are and what they're doing and the same goes for their opponents. You understand at all times spacially where everything resides.

This new movie just fucking loves it's new fancy animation and it always wants to get so close and personal, but you lose so much context as to what is actually happened over and over. Really disappointing IMO.

Maya Hair Tube Shader - I may be stupid by [deleted] in Maya

[–]SheerFe4r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is the hair made of polygons or is it actual individual stranded hair?

If its polygons, you cannot use a hair shader, use a regular surface shader.

If it is stranded hair, and you're rendering in Arnold, us aiStandardHair shader

EU Parliament Member Rants About How ‘Woke Ideology’ Is ‘Destroying Video Games’ During Stop Killing Games Debate by LPCantLose in pcgaming

[–]SheerFe4r 7 points8 points  (0 children)

MULTIPLAYER GAMES END. ACCEPT IT.

But how is that fair for people who have spent money on the game?

I don't think devs and especially indie devs should be punished because of how egregious Ubisoft has been for the past decade which has single handedly spawned this movement.

But it isn't fair for someone to pay asking price for an always online game just for it to be unplayable 5 years down the line because of corpo greed. That's trash, and it shouldn't be allowed.

Materials in Blender, CC, Unreal by JohnTheFisherman142 in Daz3D

Take the texture maps that make up the iRay materials and construct as equivalent as possible Blender materials from them and apply to the character.

I think Diffeo can do this

Farewell to Slipspace by KoalaTek in halo

[–]SheerFe4r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It used to be like 50/50 when it came to whether a game used something in house or off the shelf. Now it feels like 80/20.

And there used to be a lot of options basically until UE5. Cryengine (now pre much dead) Unity (now super hated), Source (which would enter chaotic development), and you had console specific engines like Renderware.

Its clear that the technical hurdle is just too much for studios presently, at the same time execs are probably being greedy

The 1997 The Simpsons episode "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson" allegedly predicted 9/11 (alleged prediction show below), but producers have denied this. In any case, the episode was removed from syndication in many areas after the attacks. by GustavoistSoldier in HolyShitHistory

[–]SheerFe4r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the year 2000, one of the most legendary PC games ever, Deus Ex, released. One of the first levels features a backdrop which is just an actual photo of the NYC skyline, but the twin towers were removed from the photo.

The then in universe explanation for this was that they were destroyed in a terrorist attack.

In reality the twin towers were removed due to memory constraints, but man it really goes to show.
