OP here. Sorry i meant to say 3.5 years as a 3d generalist working in a small animation studio in Los Angeles

Copy pasting one for programming, just think in 3D version of this

I would say entry level and Junior are the same thing. They are just out of school and have less than two years of work experience. They are assigned the least complex tasks and should be supervised fairly closely. Generally they know about 10% of what they think they know. Usually they have not been through the whole development cycle and so often make some very naive choices if given the opportunity to choose.

Intermediate level is where many programmers fall. They have more than two years experience and generally less than ten, although some can stay at this level their whole careers. They can produce working code with less supervision as long as they are assigned to relatively routine tasks. They are not generally tasked with high level design or highly complicated tasks that require an in-depth level of knowledge. They may be tasked with the design of a piece of the application though, especially as they are in the zone to become a senior developer.They can usually do a decent job of troubleshooting and debugging, but they have to really slog through to get the hard ones. They are the workhorses of the programming world, they deliver probably 80-90% of the routine code and maybe 10% of the very difficult stuff.

No one who is senior level even needs to ask this question. They are experts in their chosen technology stacks. They are given the hard tasks and often get design responsibilties. They often work independently because they have a proven track record of delivering the goods. They are expected to mentor Junior and intermediate developers. Often they are amazing troubleshooters. They have run into those same problems before and have a very good idea of where to look first. Seniors often mentor outside the workplace as well. They generally have at least ten years of experience and have almost always been on at least one death march and know exactly why some things are to be avoided.

>What defines a senior level artist?
The quality of your work., or how many people actually LIKE it.
Don´t bother post anything in here, trolls will say it is shit even if it´s quality, unless it´s a DAZ nude.
This 'senior', 'junior' and other shitty titles are just excuses to pay you less. Say to your boss that you´re an advanced artist and demand the highest pay in the scale (top senior or whathever the heck) and threat to leave the office to do your own work if they don´t.
They you will see what level you are.

are you sure that the case? have you posted questions in forums?

what do you mean can't move a a vertices's in space? there is window that tells you the location of the vertices's?

>>529931
There is a window that shows location of verts but it's in relation to the center of the object you're editing, so it's useless

I remember trying one of the very first beta releases of Modo years and years ago. It liked to crash a lot. Doesn't sound like much has changed, since you always here about how buggy the program is.
Also some of what you wrote reminds me of the archaic nonsense that is Lightwave. No proper support for smoothing groups/vertex normals. In 2016. Seriously, what the fuck.

CUDA is still king

>>529843
yes. CUDA cores only work for CAD software, the future is GPU renderers.

nvidia is generally better for rendering and simulation.

amd have their own techs too,i usually don't render so it don't matter for me. worst case scenario ill render my stuff online

Absolutely terrible design work OP.

2/10 would not hire for blowjob.

>>529854
Try a different seed, maybe.

>>529860
that doesn't really change much, just different colors that seem to appear in "groups"..
could it have to do with cloner settings?

Learn zbrush and sculpt

copy paste this

https://www.google.com/search?q=the+3d+models+youtube&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-ab#q=cow+3d+model+site:youtube.com

search for a cow there (choose one you liked or one that could be downloaded)

see the yellow squares on the pic that i posted? play with those for deforming the model. you could also use "creepy" textures.
if you still don't know how to do it try searching on yt for c4d modeling tutorials.
>>526159
but that would take him a couple of weeks

Cinema 4d it's said to have a great interface and animation tools, but for modeling is shit, you are better downloading any other software like blender, or zbrush and then transfering those files for animation to cinema

Can you quickly MSpaint what you want it to look like or give dimensions for the ridges?

>>529745
See the attached picture. Inside the shell, I'd like ridges that are about 5mm tall, 2mm wide, and spaced apart equally.

Is this for a 3D printed vagina?

>>529876
I don't use Maya but a seam like that is indicative of there being an issue with how the shading is being interplolated across the mesh. In this case, it doesn't appear to actually be connected at the right vertices. I see you have a bunch of triangle faces there which are known to cause problems but I don't know if that's that's the issue. Is there a way for you to remove overlapping vertices with a button or command like you can in Blender?

Did you just attach the arm to the solid body as-is or did you leave holes on both parts and "weld" the holes together?

Here's a shot of what it looks like from the inside. I don't (to my knowledge) have any faces inside this thing that are being unused, it's just outline at this point.

Every single vertice should be connected, and everything's merged into one shape, unless there's something I missed.

Dude what? What did you do with the setup files?
Btw cgpeers is down.
Also in the future, just google "is <site>.com down", you can see see if any sites are down in downuptime.com

yea its down, again.

And here's the issue I'm having, at least with the 3rd nif with z level 120:

>>529540

Nif is the main reason I never bothered modding Bethesda games. Worldspace normal maps are also a pain in the ass. For one of the most modded engines the tools are absolutely atrocious.

All about those UVs mang.

So do i need to make it so that the edge of the cup takes up more space when uv mapping it? Sorry if this is a stupid question i'm pretty new.

>>528831
You fucked your UVs up for that piece of the cup. Redo those pieces and then come back to us.

Do you have to own source games for this thing to work?

>>529720
Nope, just steam

>>529157
have you really typed "3dsmax biped pose adjustment file" in google and didn't get any results ?

also why do you think a 2kb file is a model file ?

from : http://help.autodesk.com/cloudhelp/2016/ENU/MAXScript-Help/files/GUID-0BEE71B1-4C68-4419-959F-0BFBA7ED70B6.htm

>A .cal file is used for processing marker files that require the same adjustment.
i doesn't sound like it will contain any mesh data

>>529157
I highly doubt they would use autodesk format files in a production game, they are probably engine-specific files, i would think, anyways

You're a dingus, OP.

bin and cal files are object and pose information for models used in the Dark Engine. There exist tools to convert bin/cal files to 3DSmax files and back. There exist tutorials for that.

Go to the TTLG forums and wipe the dust off of whatever ancient tomes of information exist there.
