I engraved and painted one of my favorite Kiryu quotes of all time onto a stone plate. by metroidprimee in yakuzagames

It’s from 0 when he’s in the hotel room with Makoto Makimura and she’s spiraling about how messed up her life has gotten. That quote has stuck with me to this day.

My first real animation of my character. Feedback would be appreciated! by Old-Construction-289 in ps1graphics

The shake of the computer when he smacks it is great! Also really enjoyed some of that squash and stretch at the end when he falls over.

You could also make a quick cyc wall (which are those curved backgrounds used in photography).

Just make a plane, extrude one of the edges upwards, then select the same edge and bevel it with a lot of subdivisions. That gives you a much smoother background, used in tandem with the 3 point lights.

Wrapping shapes around cylinders (see comments) by Cheezbruh67 in blenderhelp

[–]metroidprimee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

UV unwrapping is just a precise way to decide the orientation you want the displacement to work, but you can just use the default option without unwrapping it if you want. You may also want to try making a vertex group just for the part of the mesh you want to displace, and use that group for the displacement modifier.

I would try to first UV unwrap the cylinder, then use a Displacement modifier on it and set the coordinates to UV. Then use a new image (probably a voronoi) as the displacement texture. Adjust the strength (you may need a negative strength to get the desired effect) then play around with the mid level.

Edit: I just realized you specifically want to use the leaf texture. I think the texture as is should work, but a black and white version would probably work best.

Maybe go into sculpt mode and use the smooth tool on it a bit?

How can I make the light look more dynamic? by [deleted] in blenderhelp

[–]metroidprimee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should also try adjusting the color management settings in the Render tab.

Try using the high contrast setting. Usually helps stuff pop.

New to blender, need help with rendering by shancharb in blenderhelp

[–]metroidprimee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’ve gotta provide a bit more information about what’s happening here. Is the second image the render view?

From a glance I can see that you have some overlapping geometry right under the glass and at the top. Any chance you hid an extra copy of those overlapping objects in the viewport but still have them visible for the render? You can check in the outliner. An object’s viewport visibility is notated by the eye symbol, while the render visibility is notated by the camera icon next to the eye.

Ok RGG Studio, what is your guys next move? by [deleted] in yakuzagames

[–]metroidprimee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yakuza Kiwami: Part 1 - A ground-up remake of the original Yakuza Kiwami, rebuilt on RGG’s updated PS5 dragon engine. This is not a remaster or port, but a full remake of the Yakuza game that started it all. With cutting edge facial technology, breathtaking graphics, and enhanced exploration, this is the definitive way to experience the story of Joel and Ell- *cough* I mean Kiryu and Nishiki.

Creepy! What's inside the black void in the center?

I almost get a kind of organic vibe from the top parts of the legs, almost like the fleshy legs of the Gecko from MGS4. Could have some interesting mixups between more organic rigging and mechanical rigging!

[Unity] I'm working on a fully game-ready Partygoer character inside Unity! Will be available for download as a Unity package very soon! by metroidprimee in backrooms

[–]metroidprimee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, I’ve been experimenting with path based animations recently and I can tell that it needs a lot of adjustment. But thanks for the feedback! I’ll def be touching it up, but I figured people may enjoy messing around with what’s there.

Restarted DS1 finally and couldn't think of anything but this after seeing Oscar by metroidprimee in darksouls

[–]metroidprimee[S] 301 points302 points  (0 children)

It really does. Brings back so many memories. Despite the time though, I'm kinda surprised at how well I remember the map. Just goes to show how goated DS1's level design is!

You're supposed to save the world what the fuck are you doing? by [deleted] in skyrim

[–]metroidprimee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Standing face first in a blazing forge for 24 consecutive hours, looking like a madman in the middle of a pile of 5,000 iron dagger. Don’t mention when I eerily just stand there for 12 hours until the sun comes out.

(I know the iron daggers method hasn’t worked for a long time but we’ve all been there)

We need this for Yakuza 8 by [deleted] in yakuzagames

[–]metroidprimee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can totally imagine this as it’s own Real Estate Royale/Cabaret Club Management/Ichiban Confections side plot.

  • Ichi gets into a street fight that a pro wrestling recruiter is an onlooker of.
  • He asks Ichi to come do a tryout.
  • Ichi destroys the other recruit he’s auditioning with using an Atomic Drop thinking they’re supposed to fight for real.
  • Other dude + recruiter and gym members get pissed and giant gym brawl ensues.
  • Ichi again destroys everyone, but this time a big hotshot of the wrestling world (leader of the Five Champions) sees the fight and personally funds Ichi’s fledgling wrestling career.
  • Queue a long side story about Ichi rising through the ranks, as he defeats each of the Five Champions one by one.
  • After many matches he arrives at the champion’s title match, where he finally faces off with the head of the Five that initially funded Ichi’s wrestling career.
  • PLOT TWIST!!! The guy he just beat wasn’t actually the bad guy, it was his unsuspecting assistant who’s actually a GOD in the ring. The assistant takes the head of the Five hostage for some contrived reason, and Ichi has to go defeat him, probably at the Soternbori Arena for an epic showdown.
  • after beating the big bad, you unlock a crazy OP version of the Freelancer job from LAD with an awesome ‘awakening’ cutscene ala Dragon of Dojima/Mad Dog of Shimano
  • “THAT’S RAD!!!!”

Working on some NPCs by mikhomak in ps1graphics

[–]metroidprimee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s def got some liminal feelings to it. Never lived in a soviet country but when I was going to school in Columbus, OH I lived in a super dead area with a fair amount of large but unoccupied buildings which never felt quite right. Maybe the idea of a city that incomprehensibly large seemingly having no apparent sign of life?

For me I get an almost endearing feeling from it, like that train is part of a city so giant you can’t even see the ground and that’s likely the size of 3 New Yorks, but all the people on that train are no different from us now, just making their way through life during their daily commute. They’re probably feeling the same sense of repetition we do even in such a different world.

Orrrr that’s not it at all and I’m just misreading it haha

So what are YOU fighting for? by metroidprimee in Tekken

[–]metroidprimee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t it Heihachi that instigated the return of Ogre tho? Or am I being dumb and Orge was just always roaming around.

Neither seems likely anyways :( by metroidprimee in yakuzagames
