Re: ot: unreal engine
bit of self promotion and fun use of the Blueprint in UE4 ( man I love this system! ) Lately I've been developing a character customization for UE4 which right now is in early stage ( also using the Species mesh as Test subject ) Main purpose would be to easily create NPC characters with a custom UI ( made with UMG ) and also shareable lipsync between meshes by extracting the data from Facerobot. Character Customization for UE4 - Featuring Species ;-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CLuZJFCC7Q Further development will include clothes, armor, hairstyle, glasses, Apex clothing and fully functional ( and shareable ) facial mocap 2014-11-20 10:18 GMT+01:00 Brent McPherson brent.mcpher...@autodesk.com: Yes, the right-click menus activate object-component mode in Maya.

Re: ot: unreal engine
Hi Francisco, Yes, I'm currently using the ART plugin developed by Jeremy Ernst, and it works pretty good! Not knowing python scripting is a huge downside for me, so having this free rigging tool is really a huge timesaver. Step by step I'm extending this rig functionality in order to integrate my custom ( re-usable ) facial rig into the body rig and everything works fine. I'm really digging Unreal Engine 4, the Blueprint system has a similar feel to ICE, and its really intuitive :) 2014-11-18 21:32 GMT+01:00 Francisco Criado malcriad...@gmail.com: Nicolas, may i ask if you are using unreal toolset for rigging? thanks, F. -- Francisco Criado visual geek DCA Lab

Cryengine 2 was used as well for archivz and the results were stunning, and lots of companies get a license to develop just that... The main issue that I found right now is that if you want to share or send the work to your client ( as a walkthrough I mean ) you have to send ( and install ) a 1-2gb file, which most clients are not so comfortable with...otherwise you can just render a video with it...the main advantage is that you don't wait 5 minutes per frame, but just a couple of seconds. Anyway this engine looks amazing and the constant updates are improving it more and more 2014-08-22 23:18 GMT+02:00 Cristobal Infante cgc...@gmail.com: Some more in his work in kotaku: http://kotaku.com/next-gen-lighting-is-pushing-the-limits-of-realism-1625324795?utm_campaign=Socialflow_Kotaku_Twitterutm_source=Kotaku_Twitterutm_medium=Socialflow And also a while back this Swedish apartment was done in Unreal (previously done in octane).

Game engines will always be faster than DCC apps in that regard, and by a large factor. As for look quality, it’s just a matter of writing the shaders. You can do that in Softimage.
