How's that game coming along...

I only ever touched the alpha version awhile back and I found it annoying to use because of the monochrome buttons and different placement of options but the renderer was really efficient. But I heard everyone loves it so I don't know, maybe it's better.
I wanted to sculpt the scales in and bake them onto a normal map eventually. Is Zbrush better optimized for sculpting? Cause whenever I see videos of people using it they seem to be working with a hell of a lot more detail than I am in Blender.

Not. I'm taking advantage of summer vacations to practice.
Also both of the games I was making aren't planned enough so they're chugging too much.

At least I made something for the GMTK jam and I'm gonna do something too for the UE4 jam in a couple hours.

There's a different sculpting branch for 2.8 that has a lot of utilities and is going to be merged down the line, I'm not sure but the performance might be better.
Zbrush is definitely better than Blender at handling polygons, I can sculpt millions of polygons on my laptop running off its battery, without any performance issue while Blender will just shit itself.
Regarding scales, I think it might just be a better idea to do them in Substance Painter, it just seems faster to author, and I don't really see how you'd get the correct colors with just geometry.

The only productive thing i've done this week is create a shitty csgo skin. I mostly make maps for source engine games though.

Still struggling making fucking shoulders bend correctly. I just want to give up and make the arm / chest two separate object at this point.

Go into weight paint and make sure it's weighted correctly.

Coming along well, thanks for asking.

Way faster than I thought it would, too, although I haven't done anything really hard yet like enemy pathfinding.

Blender 2.8 has gotten much more efficient in every way. However like Said, zbrush has crazy efficiency when handling high polygons. If your machine can hold down the fort then you can probably get away without learning a new program, but otherwise zbrush is King of sculpting.

Im making a character with blender and im stuck. Should I wait until the low poly mesh (retopology) in order to make the interior of the mouth and eyes? I mean, should I just sculpt a good loking closed mouth and eyes and then animate them in low poly?

Do it. It won't screw up your 2.79 stuff.
There's a few changes I had to get used to but now I can't go back. The tab and layer system is fantastic

2.8 is magical but you have to relearn a lot of stuff.

Finally got all my current tiles added to my tile pallette's(after unity finally updated to support it) and my different grids setup and can start building the world.

What are you using it for? Will the character have an animated mouth?

Model yourself a good cave and some lips then make teeth and tounge as a separate object

I hear as much, but damn I barely know my workflow now I'd hate to take the time to relearn it when I'm shitting out my sprites constantly right now.

Already started watching Unity engine and Blender tutorials! I'd say that's a good start, wouldn't you?

>Zbrush is definitely better than Blender at handling polygons, I can sculpt millions of polygons on my laptop running off its battery
Well then I got my answer. Too bad now I'll have to learn what looks like the worst UI I've ever seen.

>Regarding scales, I think it might just be a better idea to do them in Substance Painter, it just seems faster to author, and I don't really see how you'd get the correct colors with just geometry
Not sure if we're understanding each other, or maybe if I'm misunderstanding the function of Substance Painter, but I wanted something akin to this level of detail in the sculpt. I imagine painting it afterwards.

Can normal maps alone handle this much detail or do I need something else? I am a newbie retard by the way.

Are you utilizing the tutorials for your own means or still sticking to the script? If the latter it's not a good start.

Yeah im making a character for a unity game that can move his mouth, should i model the cave in the low poly v?

My image fucked off, sorry.

I’m going to Super Smash Con in five minutes to show off my game. Not sure what to expect, and hoping it doesn’t glitch out and break.

Depends on how much detail you need. Is this for a game or a movie. If it's a game you can absolutely paint it on. If you aren't happy with the results you can always go back and sculpt it in. Do you want a scale pattern like on a snake or did you want it sticking out everywhere

My comment was to early. Honestly due to how his scales cover him you can decimate your model because you won't need much of the topology you have. Everything is covered in scales. You should be able to do that in blender alright.

Automatic weights doesn't detect the shoulder correctly ( maybe because there's not enough vertices right now ) but I don't want to endlessly add loops without understanding how the software will move the vertices. I did a lot of tests on a plane to see how vertices "retract" and the result was never the same. I'm still questioning myself if modeling in T-pose is best way because right now it just adds a lot work.

Looks like fun. What's it called.

I was but something else came up and then I didn't touch it for a month, then the idea of going back into the spaghetti gave me the fear and a month became six months.

Normal map should work fine for something like that. Although if you plan on having it run in real time in a game engine you might not be able to get quite that high detail on the model (having the scales actually physically stick out might create a pretty high poly count.)

You need a shoulder/clavicle bone. Otherwise you just can't deform it correctly.
Or you can hide it. Like wow and its huge ass paldrons.

It's not that big of a change if you take 30 minutes to change the keybindings back to what they were.

Zbrush's UI's bad but at least it's modular and you'll be spending most of your time sculpting anyway.
Normalmaps can't create "geometry", they only tell the incoming light vector that the surface is angled differently than what it should be, which shades the surface accordingly.
Heightmaps/Displacement maps can be coupled with tesselation in order to make the geometry pop out, I think they're appropriate in this case.

Thanks, it’s called Steelpaw. I fixed the netcode and gamepad support last night at 3am so hopefully things go smoothly.

Comment your code. All of it. Even the most retarded parts. Every single line. Comment it like you're teaching a mentally challenged monkey, because you are.

Working on the action-y bit now, have the skeleton of a town that will be fleshed out eventually, general gameplay taking place in procedurrally generated dungeons. Once combat works Ill get on a class system, whip out some spells/abilities and then Ill find someone who can do art to replace the MS paint placeholders Ive been using

Post it on here when you launch my dude.

Everything makes sense within each compartment, but the large-scale architecture is a frankenfuck and it's very hard to find advice on how to organise the software as a whole for something as bespoke as a game where there's no one size fits all appraoch. Programming tutorials show you how to cobble together stuff quickly so it just werks and throw scalability to the wind.

Thing is, if I try to handcraft scales, even at this level, they look shitty and low quality. Something like this youtube.com/watch?v=D5EcEx39Eas
I've seen some examples on youtube with alpha but it seemed kind of uniform and not very good either.

It isn't really for either, mostly for practice and fun.

I'm fine with lower level of detail and protrusion isn't necessary. I'll be satisfied with just the base effect of light hitting the scales looking right. The example I posted is more detailed than I'm planning.

>Heightmaps/Displacement maps can be coupled with tesselation in order to make the geometry pop out, I think they're appropriate in this case.
I recognize the terms but this is all new to me. I'll have to check those out.

Thanks for the help, everyone by the way.

Eishi what are you doing here, get back to work!

Is it just keybindings that changed then? I thought menu's changed.

Fuck off am lazy

So I should do a high poly char, then retopo and then do the interiors after? Thanks btw for everything really

For sure man. Sounds like substance is the way to go for what you need. It may be a hassle but it'll be worth learning and the model will be optimized for whatever you need

Any good resources/tips for planning/working out a fighting game?

Viewport changed for the better. There's a handful of keybindings that are different. A is no longer select and de-select. It's alt-A to de-select. Left click is default but you can just change it back.
Eevee is an incredible time saver with great results.
The tab system is a far better layout.
Cycles is 20%? Faster.
A materials tab is in house. I think they're trying to compete with substance eventually.
It's worth checking out at least. It's not too hard to transition. Just watch a few videos

I need to learn how to retopo and it terrifies me. I've basically been shitting out my in game sprites of inanimate objects because I'm scared of NPC's/enemies.

I'll check it out for sure, Zbrush too. Too bad I have to put it all on hold because of my shitty uni project.

So Ive started working on a game a couple months ago using mspaint placeholders (have an artist on hand but I dont want her actually involved until the base game is ~80% done). I have a lot of the non-combat work there. Whats an engine (any language works) you like for a tiled turn based combat system? The action of the game is like speed-chess meets DnD

Luckily my work already sucks

They all work it just depends on what you're comfortable with. Unity is easier but less powerful than unreal. Unreal has more bloat to deal with.

Where do I start? I've never programmed or drawn anything in my life and I already work full-time so I can't just no-life learning this shit.

ok guys here's my game idea

L4D style asymmetrical PvP, except the power role can control the hordes as well as taking on a first person role as specials. You'd have to make the power role UI in a way that the player doesn't realize they're playing an RTS when they use the hordes.

I was but I'm wracked with tiredness ever since my fever went down. Surgery is a bitch.

2D or 3D? You can use whatever you like the sound of for tile-based since you'll mostly just be using the engine for the visuals rather than any built-in logic.

Don't ever use working full time as an excuse unless that means 70+ hours in 5 days.

I work ~50hrs over 6 days and I've spent 25+ hours working on my game since monday afternoon on top of my work day.

Outside of that download a program like unity and do tutorials. Learn a code and look online for resources.

Start at codingbat and go through some tutorials on writing java or python. You can get through a lot in an hour or two.

Just 2d. Googling around Im probably writing this with the Love engine but I wanted to see what other people use. This is like 50/50 writing a game that sounded cool in my head and learning python

I didn't mean to use it as an excuse, but more of a way to let posters know that I can't put 10 hours into a project daily.

Thanks for the tips. Sending them to myself so I can review it when I get home.

Coming along great, just doing what I can every day.

I can guarantee your dumb ass wastes a lot of money on less important things than a good diet. Go get some bulk chicken thighs and pork shoulder.

I've never used it myself but it seems decent for 2D. You could try that or Godot, whichever you can find better documentation / tutorials / support for. Unity or UE are likely unnecessarily heavy for what you'd want to make but they have tons of learning resources.

The actual swinging is great but you could use some work on the footwork. You could test by turning off motion in game and enabling Root Motion, so if the feet don't perfectly like up with the motion it's more obvious

I understand. I'd rather everyone wait and play the final thing anyways. Feels like early access doing all these playtests :(

I like them, not over complex so that the player can tell what the attack actually is. But id tweak the slash effect, that semi transparent motion thing. The way it disappears is just too immediate, try to have some sort of fade on the effect.

A lot of my learning curve right now is in the engines themselves, Im not making a super heavy game with a shitload of features. The idea right now is like an RPG with hardcore for every character but the endgame is reached in a few hours, combat is 5 second turns with a DnD character and progression is made improving the town you spawn characters from. I made a town out of renpy already like if Reccettear let you level up the merchants guild. Love was the engine I knew about initially and it fot in with renpy already

I'm in literal physical pain looking at these images.

It actually hurts me to see someone so miserable at what they're doing that they're actively oblivious to it. This is the equivalent of someone picking up a pencil, putting it in their mouth and scribbling for 10 seconds on a piece of paper, and then calling themselves a concept artist.

Who the fuck posts and brags about using a program for 10 minutes? Who does this?

Like the other user said the footwork could use some work. I'd suggest, at least on the attacks which leave the weapon hanging in the air, to smooth out the speed at end's of the swings. Not sure what's that called? Squash and stretch?

calm down fella they're practising.

I don't know/sure about programming.

Still trying tho

Oh I am not bragging, I'm not good at 3D art but I'm only using it to make isometric sprites.

This is the finished product of the skeleton head.

I know it's shit but fuck you guy show me your work.

That's not practicing. Practicing takes hours, repetition, and most importantly it takes self-criticism. OP posted 5 minutes worth of messing with a program, that's not practice.

>I know it's shit but fuck you guy show me your work.
I'm not a "game dev" or whatever, wannabe or otherwise. I haven't even touched Zbrush in years, and I only ever use it as an extension of my sketchbook.

Anyone here actually buy Zbrush?

Judging by all the blender users, no.

>it does look like garbage at times and gets in the way easily
if it fades quickly it wont look like garbage, it looks nice as it is but since it stays a bit too long when it is in a bad angle you do notice it, plus that "pop" when it disappears just makes it worse. A simple fade to it should be enough.

Well then my suggestion to you would probably be to learn how anatomy works and what a skeleton looks like, because it's clear you've never seen one before. And please, please don't say "It's my thing and it's art and I can do whatever I want" or make some dumb excuse about it being too small to see.

If you don't have any drive to be better than you shouldn't be doing it. The worst thing you can do to yourself is waste your time learning the wrong things.

Making a game is fucking hard work and don't let anyone fool you into thinking otherwise. Quit my job and been full time for a few months. Working all day until you are completely exhausted, filled with doubts that it will even pay off in the slightest bit. Most games make barely any money at all, and it takes an immense amount of effort to make something anywhere near decent.

This looks great user! I really like iso and these sprites are nice. Only feedback I have is there being too much contrast between the clean look of the middle part (With the sphere) and the rest of the map.

So, is anyone here using the Sculpt branch of blender while they dont merge it to 2.8x ?

You really trying to say that that skeleton looks improper anatomically? Eat shit, it may be shitty but I have almost ever necessary bone in that picture and used a reference for it.

You're a faggot and a disease on the world.

I don't actually work in Blender so I don't know much about the program, but I'm sure it can do transparency on textures. Look up alpha maps, that should teach you what you need to know. I'm not quite sure what you're asking with your second question, if you mean like a texture sheet then yes, that's standard for most 3d programs.

this one also gives some quick tips that I thought were good and its relatively short:

My friend is a professional comic artist so I've seen and used a bunch of the wacom's throughout the whole lineup and I definitely feel my Huion is absolutely worth it over the lower end Intuos models.

>perfectly

There you go adding words I never said.

Which Huion are you using? I've been meaning to get one but I'm not sure if I should spend like you around $60 or get the larger one for about $100+

My favorite tablet was an Intuos 4 Medium, but it died. I bought a Huion and it just didn't feel the same, plus the pen couldn't do what I needed it to (I always bind one button to Pan, and one to Undo, and it couldn't do Pan).

Now I bought an XP-Pen something, it's functionally a Cintiq but for 1/5th the price. So far it's been working great, but I haven't used it for sculpting or anything like that.

tools doesn't matter that much as long as you're happy with them and they don't limit you. and you're good enough to not blame the tools
I'm just oldschool and got into art when wacom was the only one and others were shit with batteries and trash. Got wacom graphite and after that was a brandwhore. I've had graphite, intuos 3, intuos 4, intuos 4 large, cintiq 13hd and 14hd and i've been happy with them. Touch capacity is a meme but overall a good product, none of them have had any hardware faults. Other than the wire port being bent on my intuos 4L from me being a retard and constantly keeping it so the wire is under stress.
But I'm glad to see wacom has a lot of competetition.

I have the h610 pro v2

Fundamentals in anatomy is essential for any artist, 3D or 2D. Skeletonfag is being a queer but he's not wrong, if you don't pick up a textbook your art is going to suck.

Oh yeah I'm definitely a wacom whore if I had a choice, but I'm going to shill Huion because I'm satisfied with my affordable purchase and want to stick it to the wacom jews. No reason to spend $100+ when you can get the same thing for half the cost imo. Especially when like you said don't blame the tools.

can't draw, will probably save up and hire a pixel artist

I was the same way, when I came up Intuos was the only brand, and everything else was cheap knockoff trash. Back then, the Cintiq was the only real screen tablet on the market and it was the big thing every artist aspired to own, myself included but I could never afford it.

These days, there's enough relative quality competition that while I'd probably still go Intuos if I could afford it, it's a much better option to just go with a cheaper brand.

From what I can tell, the XP-Pen Artist Pro is a really solid Cintiq alternative, I have no complaints about mine.

Perfect, thank you.
>3
There was a 1?
Is there a 4?

>3D
uhh yeah tis super important for 2d but in 3d if you're hardsurface its less important. Still pays to know it in case you are making biomechanical shit and the overall philosophy of it should be interesting.
Frankly if you don't have interest in the world, how it works and how things are made you are not an artist, you're a shitter.

I think that's the one I was looking at a while back. Does the smaller size make using it clunkier as imagine it does?

Why do normal maps suck

Why would I waste time making a shit game when I can write a novel?

>NORMALMAPS OUT REEEE

they don't, its just you.

You're saying this like I didn't use a reference picture though. I referenced anatomy I just did a shitty job.

It's the same size as the mid tier intuos as far as a I know.

Yeah I know. Every time I try they end up looking awful. I never know what I'm doing wrong.

Who knew posting one fucking image of my skeleton would cause such a derailed shit show.

Fundamentals are literally everything. Anatomy study is the most important thing a modeler can spend their time on. And it's not just about doing it once, it's about iterating, repetition, and an intense desire to find your weaknesses and grind through them.

ANYONE who defends themselves from having to put in the work is not an artist, they're just an asshole who's pretending so they can get those asspats from their parents and idiots around them.

If you give a single fuck about honing your craft, I'd highly suggest pirating (or paying if you want) and plowing through Ryan Kingslien's Anatomy for Zbrush series. You can get a lot of his old videos on CG torrent sites, or buy some on Zbrush workshop.

>I referenced anatomy I just did a shitty job.
Then fucking throw it out and do it again. How is this complicated?

Remember the phrase "Don't cling to a mistake just because you took a long time making it". Don't defend your shit, just throw it out and re-do it. Art is about iteration and repetition. If you can't scrap your work and start over, then just don't bother.

You know why user? Because I'm one fucking man making a game.

1 skeleton has like 26 frames of animation JUST for walking in one direction. Then additional attack frames and such. Then there's 8 directions etc.

My folder in game for the skeleton warrior is 628 objects in 36 folders. That's just 1 enemy in a game with 10's of enemies and NPC's and inanimate objects I have to make.

It's my first humanoid sculpt I have ever done, it is the first humanoid enemy in my game I have made. I am learning as I go and if I get better I will come back and redo it. BUT I have to get the bulk of the work done and keep on keeping on so I can have a game instead of having nothing.

I'm not "clinging" to a mistake, I see everything that's wrong and dissatisfying in my game as I make it and progress along (you really don't want to know how many grass tiles I've tested and redone and remade).

>Anime
into the trash it goes

I forgot to mention that render times and such on 600+ frames is a lot of time spent redoing something that's workable for testing/building when I could spend that week getting so much more done to further my game.

There's schedules and tables on everything I'm doing because I want my game to exist instead of being a thought in my head.

I lost my rhythm, I want to get back onto the project I had started though.

Man I'm gonna do you a favor right now, but I want you to be straight with me and read, understand, and internalize what I'm saying. This is going to help you with everything you do for the rest of your life.

See this gif? It's Jackie Chan doing a real simple move, tossing a fan and catching it. Seems real tricky, like he's fucking awesome and has his shit down pat, right? That's because he did it over 80 times to get that one shot. 80 times redoing that same move, on camera with his other actor, every time being ready to keep going when he landed it. The result is that when he finally gets it, it looks perfect on camera like he's just naturally that good. And you know what he said? It doesn't matter that it took 80 tries. What else are you gonna do, complain that it's hard? That you're tired? That it's too much work or you just want to get done and move on? Are you gonna go to every single person that watches the movie and explain to them why it's not very good, because it was hard and you were tired? They don't care.

That's what happens when you half-ass it, and complain about the work. So when you finish your game, are you gonna put a little note in that says "Sorry if this skeleton looks like shit, it was my first model and it was a lot of work to make."? No nigga, and they don't care how much effort you put in because they only see the end result: SHIT.

So get in front of it. Do the work, make it better. Just like Jackie Chan says, what you make lasts forever, and the audience only cares if it's good or it's bad, not how much work you put into a bad product.

My point is, if you make a single excuse again, it means you're literally a shit human being who will never accomplish anything you your life. That's what the point is. Stop making excuses.

Did you read my message at all? I didn't make an excuse I said it wasn't a priority, do you know what priorities are user?

You know how it took him 80 tries to get that shot? You know how afterwards he's going to do another shot in a different scene? THAT"S ME, I'm in the other area building more scenes.

Why does this seem to be the most popular style of indie game people try to make? Not to shit on your game or anything It just seems like everywhere I see threads on game making a metroidvania pops up.

>You know how afterwards he's going to do another shot in a different scene? THAT"S ME, I'm in the other area building more scenes.
And yet, dude invests the time to get every scene perfect instead of saying "Nah it's good enough" and moving on.

All I'm saying my man, is you either have what it takes or you don't, and I don't think you do. Real creators grind it out and make what they want to make, not hunker down and make excuses for why it sucks and why it can't get better.

I'm not happy with it either. It still looks too human to me, but I'll try to figure out the rest of the steps before coming back and redoing it.

Sidescrollers are popular for some reason.

Hits look very impactful, gj. Make sure not all enemies are completely stunlockable but give them all this same feeling of overpowering them when you get a hit in.
Maybe work on movement or animation a little, so it looks less like the character is sliding forward.
Also, I wish there were no retarded twirls, but that's just personal taste.

No dude Jackie was his own director for almost all of his films in Hong Kong. He was the one who chose the shots, choreographed them, and made the crew spend the long, long time needed to get everything perfect.

Criticism usually works when you don't buckle yourself to tryhard "internet tough guy" attitudes, now he'll just disagree with you out of spite instead of learning from the pointers you could've utilized.

I'm good at teaching, but it's college level and people with autism should have it checked
What's there to tell? Pair of kids who knew each other for a while were diaper furs and would constantly draw and try to incorporate thier stuff into group projects. I tried to split them apart a few times but that was only like spreading the cancer. I had them sent to the on campus counselor once they started drawing baby furs and actually wearing and shitting in diapers in class. Had them removed from the program. The fucking smell the last month they were there. Imagine the week after Halloween when the dump has all that rotting pumpkin going on.

hello /ic/ what are you doing here?

I give people the attitude I do because it's what I needed and usually continue to need to improve. No one was ever as harsh as I needed and so I had to be that voice for myself.

Anyone who uses tone as an excuse to disregard criticism would've made the same excuse regardless, they're not interested in criticism at all. If you need your critique wrapped in platitudes and praise, you don't really want critique.

i don't think i'd ever have the time or resources to make the game i would want to make, so i'm learning to draw furries instead. at least if i change my mind later on, drawing furries will be useful for character design.

i think its because of the joints? or maybe hes going to animate them later on.

>Its an everyone is the same post

Hi retard.

It's not "hard", is just boring to pass data correctly.

At your level i would just stick to blender, unless you really serious about focusing on sculpting then zbrush is a piece of shity software tahts hard to use.
Blender is good enough for basic shit, i sometimes just do simple shit in it and only go to zbrush when doing bigger stuff.

because from a production perspective you need less sprites than an rpg for example. it is the easiest to make. sprites are just flipped on the X axis for example, during walking animations. Jumping is pretty easy to implement. Attacks usually boil down to one slash or shooting a gun. They all play the same most of the time for this reason.

are these 3d models converted to sprites? old school style?

Yes they are

The concept looks good, but there's no weight to the animations and no impact on the hits. Those two little bits of polish are the de facto most important things in making your game look anything but amateur.

I drew the background for the opening scene. That's it, still need to implement a battle system. I'm going jrpg but I still not sure how

No, because getting started is the most difficult phase in any project.
I know if I manage to get anything up and running it's going to get a lot smoother. Just starting things is hard.

With game dev it's even harder because you have to start several different things on several different softwares.

That's everyone who plays games.

why is your walk cycle 26 fucking frames? That's a huge failing on your part. Do it in a maximum of 8 and quit bitching.

Because that's how you get a proper walk cycle. Contact, up, passing, down, contact range of motions +1 extra frame to make it loop or whatever.

It's not a failing.

That looks great, actually.

It's clearly inefficient. You've been going on and on about how your models aren't shit because they'll be low poly sprites. Use that look to your advantage and get smart with your animation frames.

I'm tweaking out the combat, seeing how much io want to lock the player into the attacks, slowing the turn rate and movement when the animation is playing.

You don't need that many inbetweens on a low res game. He could make it look good with just the keys.

Is being a good pixel artist and animator more work in the long term than 3d modeling and animation?

Yes that's how it works...It's like you people have never used blender.

I insert the keyframes and press ctrl+f12 and it renders the animation. Yeah it's 26 frames I'm only making the animation on the keyframes.

I think my walking animation is fine , the sculpt is what could be better and takes time redoing all of it and rerendering everything.

Stop being a cunt

Not really I'm not a huge ARPG fan BUT it is an influence along with Dransik//Ultima which is the style of game it will be.

So do a small multiplayer focused side project to learn what you need and then translate it to the main game

Depends on how complex the program is, maybe. I made a blackjack game in highschool where it wouldn't properly remove some cards after being drawn (5 deck, casino style). If I hadn't fixed that before making it multiplayer, I probably never would have gotten MP working properly.

if it worth while to make stuff in rpg maker, I just want to entertain people.

So how do you actually go about 3D modelling a character? I hear you're supposed to make a high poly model first even if you want the end result to be relatively low poly so you can get normal maps and shit, but how important is topology for the high poly model?

I heard there's something like retopologizing(?) but how viable is that? Can you just go ham on your high poly mesh and then retopologize it to get usable UVs or what?

t. beginner

Also tell me the game so I can do some more comparison. It is not 1st person. I hate all that shit like the Forest and others that look exactly like they could be the same game.

Who pooped in your cereal?

I know it sounds shit. I am trying to keep it simple as shit.

Me actually

there are many ways to do it, but usually you sculpt a high poly model and retopo it

learn to play music first, there's enough 12 year old producers making flavor of the week garbage they saw on a youtube tutorial. Also sound effects you just download.

What do you want?
For simple models you can just do lowpoly.

So I basically don't have to care about topology at all when sculpting, right?

I'm not really sure actually, I was just wondering about general workflow like seems to go into detail on.

I really hate retopo and find it a waste of fucking time.
I make base mesh close to lowpoly as possible and sculpt ontop of that. Way faster and less infuriating than retopo.
A lesson I learned the hard way.

Eh. Retopo tools are so good these days it's not worth sweating out a basemesh that will divide well, instead of just dynameshing it and then retopoing.

Doing thing manually is never a waste of time.

He posted some stuff like a week ago but no cares cause the lewd version isn't being worked anymore

They both became the butt of all jokes for the rest of the time I taught that group til they graduated. The fur faggots were only there til the end of October.

Seriouslly guys, how do I get into Zbrush sculpting?

no one starts out knowing those things
start learning
download blender and watch some tutorials on youtube

We were part of the problem, but we could have prevented this.

Download ZBrush and spend 5 years learning to draw

well fuck, I am bad as fuck drawing but I can do stuff modelling on Blender

I like it

you practice drawing so you can stop being bad at it.

I am raising money to make a low effort game in RPG Maker. I will use standard RPG Maker graphics, except for the character portraits, which I will pay some good artist to do. Obviously the girls will have all the extremely strong sexual attributes and the player will be able to unlock extremely sexy clothes.
The only sale point of the game will be the sexy girls' portraits. Is it a good bet? Or will I spend time and money for nothing?

Good tips for making UV? I fucking hate doing UVs and always looks like shit

I know i'm a bit late to the party, but shoulder rigging is the hardest.

If you want it to look good you need about 6 mesh deforming bones

If anyone is making a small game to learn and wants custom music, hit me up. I'm looking for practice after some time away from musicdev

Sup friends! I just got done with my high poly char and im happy about it, but, im a bit lost about the clothing part. I want to do a character with a starting armor and several others to be acquired later. Should I do several models with the same rig and a first one, naked? Many thanks for the previous answers

Or you could just do it with proper topology.

Are ARPGs enjoyable to play alone or its best if you play as a party?

Is that how the game would look or just placeholder stuff?
If it's the former, it's fucking bizarre, I like it.

no soul

this looks incredible

Hey man, about this quote:

>The chances of you being successful at any creative endeavor are literally zero.
He's wrong about this.You can succeed with low quality art if you have some other redeeming quality in your game. The problem, as I see it, is that you are focusing on a niche market, making money off of a Diablo-like amateur game is probably an almost impossible task and low quality art will make it all the more difficult.
Are you doing this for hobby or to make money?

Trips me out. I like it.

I'm interested in this as well

Post your work

That depends on how tight fitting your armor is.

You either want to make a "naked" character and then attach pieces on top of your base character, or you might want to swap out bodyparts (then you'll need to plan ahead an separate the head, arms, torso, legs and so on), in any way you'll use the same skeleton.

It's a beggars can't be choosers deal. If you're not a beggar, then go hire someone to make your music.

is that merc.jpg?

I was just curious you autist, god forbid we know what flavor of trash was being churned out

Where is your game?

What do you think of my assets Yea Forums? I'm making a little zelda like where you play a little witch girl that lives in a town full of talking cats and pumpkins. Maybe two hours long, free.

One buddy is doing the programming and another the music.

here's a tip, faggot. If you're gonna whore out your shitty music, don't be a standoffish freak when someone shows interest.

that and whatever the fuck proko was trying to draw that time

>no game
every time

we're curious about the tone/flavor of your work, don't be so defensive. Finding the right musician for the job requires some shopping around for that right 'fit'. You could be fantastic at your shit but if it doesn't work with what people are assembling then that's that.

What, do you expect someone to say 'yeah okay get on my project even though I've never heard one note of your work'.

Very unprofessional, man.

you'll never ever be a human being and anything you make will be unoriginal low quality garbage

Why would I post my game when it's obvious you'll just tear it apart senselessly. Whatever, just take your """victory""" buddy boy.

I'm not looking for paid work. This is a "user makes his first pong with a twist and I give him a song I made in half an hour" thing, I'll make some music for it. If you need a "right musician" for the job, then that's not me. I don't want a job

i love merc.jpg

Really, nigger? You can take your keys and stuff 'em.

You need to realize the swing can be as fast as you want it to be, but the human body should move at realistic human body's speeds. Dark Souls does it correctly, in general. Some enemy have impossibly fast swings, but their movements in between are slow and considerate, which is what gives them heft and makes them satisfying to watch.

Made me chuckle
I agree with you though, this is so basic and premature that there's nothing helpful that could be said about it other than "keep trying", it does start an interesting thread though

Thanks!! I was planning on making a rig on a naked character, then delete bodyparts and do several armor pieces

party, I find it very boring to play alone.

Texturing is a pain in my ass. I want to do low-res unfiltered textures like Quake 2 over box-modelled objects. Do I have to hand-pixel it or is there another method they used back then?

hope your mom dies in an automobile wreck

why is it a meme

Imagine being this miserable. I feel sorry for you
