You can do something like this where you animate between different normal maps depending on the bending. Not totally realistic of course but results are predictable and the calculations involved are very light weight.

For a highpoly offline rendering you could use actual displacement maps on subdivided geo instead of normalmaps.

>>510385
yeah I was thinking of that. It's just a ton of work if you have to make several versions of your entire model and textures

why not simulations? Create clusters and move them to force the cloth to change where the folds are as it moves.

Art

pretty

doesn't it have to be wider than it's tall to be a chode?

>>509694
I feel like the feet are clipping through the floor and the ending is incomplete. I also think the overall animation is horrible.

well thank you for your honesty :) yes they clip through the floor

we had to make an animation that lasts 30 second... my task was to begin with a diamond and end with a girl:) ALSO THERE ARE TWO EASTER EGGS or how you call them, STAR WARS EASTER EGGS TRY TO FIND THEM

>>510955
use blender

>>510955
You can't, autocad user here, I fucking hate autodesk's control scheme, it's equally bad on all of their software.

Why are you moving to 3dsmax?

>>511394
Depends
Are you willing to pull the "team"

HA
I did the covered bridge in the background of the lower right.

OP, this project got done because at least one person took it upon themselves to very diligently organize and insist upon it. Whenever someone is willing to take on that role, something like this can be done again.

>>511394
i mean we just need 1 or 2 people to "lead" it, probably would be easiest if they were the scene compiler. but we can use trillo to organised what needs to be done and who is working on what.

somebody start it
> im good with asset creation ( games or full res ) texturing ( mostly photo painting, not really to good with hand painted textures ), lighting ( arnold, renderman, vray, mental ray)

Flipped polygon normals? Realigning might help

Nah, the normals are facing the right way. Here's the normal map itself.

Please someone help me. This is holding my project up completely.

anyone with good ram and cpu

possibly an asus g771jw I have the base model and even then it will run inventor smoothly

I just picked this one up myself. Definitely worth the 1k. Also doesn't look like your typical ricetop and has one 2.5 bay for expansion.
There's a model with half the memory and 1080p for like 200 less though.

I can help you with the work flow in blender if you like. I really dont feel like typing it all out since that would take a long time. Feel free to hit me up on skype and I will do my best to help you.

Honestly, this information is so basic that if you need to ask, you should not attempt it in the first place.

"It says sculpt a model, paint it, animate it and render it."

"Duhhh, how do I do this in another 3d program???"

>>511422
>username: dogboy.exe
Not sure if legit. I may hit you up.

>>511424
I'm not asking about making the model, or rigging it, or animating it. I'm asking about workflow for doing 8 sets of renders, preferably in a way that isn't tedious and time consuming as fuck.

tl:dr
you're sad because you are incapable to follow through.

well I think it happens to all of us really, it always starts like you said, sounds like a great idea but then mid development the want to make the project complete is gone. I think the best way is to include people, it'll make things easier and give extra motivation to complete a project.

>>511419
Maybe my issue with working with others has more to do with the fact that they never really contributed much to the making process. The person I worked with made a couple textures and offered some valuable asset ideas, even a could models. I also think that their lack of knowledge of game development didn't help either. I definitely don't want to place all the blame on the other person when it was honestly all my fault we failed, my waxing and waning apathy killed me in the end.

I just wish there was an easy solution. Almost every day I go experiment in 3d. Not a day goes by I don't think about making a game.

>>511421
hmm, well why don't you find someone who knows what they're doing.
I think having the right people is key and you seem like someone who is passionate.
If you want I can help you with a small game and keep that pressure which is need to finish a game.

How is this difficult?

I'd invite but "Because the user limit has been reached you are unable to send invites at this time." Good luck getting access

>>510117

show one art you made and ill invite

monoprice 11+ inch for around 90usd

>>511266
There's a 10.5x6.5 or something like that Monoprice that's usually around $40 or $50 USD on Amazon (can get it cheaper via ebay store)

I haven't ever used a Wacom or high end tablet, so maybe compared to those this sucks, but compared to a mouse it's a lot nicer for sculpting / drawing

My only trouble is my drawing skill is a little weak, it takes me a couple attempts to get a stroke with a nice straight line or even curve, and if I don't redo / correct it, these little irregular lines and curves start working into the sculpt

I'm sure there's tools in the software that help with this but I also just need to git gud. Also I need to just flat out unplug my mouse for a week or two

Thanks guys!

Pathetic. You should be expelled for this

>>509680
I only made the part with Hitler. Made his face pretty well, only it's difficult to see from far away. But yeah, lighting, camera and textures suck.

>>509681
Everything is pathetic. When I went to 3d school 5 years ago I was taught by someone who had actually accomplished something in animation. Everything you animated had to be approved by him before you did anything in the computer and then storyboarded first. This "thing" you made is so pathetic I assume your school is really really bad. Do something worthwhile with your life pls

How do you even know?

That's something I wondered about as well.

They could make 3D modelling easier, especially when in wireframe mode.

>>511323
I've heard that it's pretty fun with modelling. But I don't wanna fall for the oculus rift meme again and rape my eyes with the 3d glasses and buy something pricy that i won't be able to use

I was discussing this with a friend. He said 3D polarized glass means a drop in vertical resolution, since you have to show both pictures at the same time. Other than that and the fact that you are wearing glasses, there seems to be no real downside.

So how do I make it better?

>>508372

Learn lighting, color theory, and most importantly composition.
