>>1017723
If you pose the character into the pose you need it can look flat and stiff, and exaggerating the camera can warp other parts you don't want to look warped like backgrounds. So with forced perspective you can create more stylized images. Basically take the camera and pose the character so that your composition looks good. Very tough to pull off correctly but when it clicks it looks great. Unless you're already an artist working on perspective skills it will take time to develop the understanding of proportions to exaggerate them in a way that feels natural to the eye

In /3/s expert option what went wrong?
Are they really running a UE5 Lumen PBR pipeline with stylized post-processing on top?
Would doing stylized rendering in Unity's scripted render pipeline fix this?
>>
>>1019051
If it's overloading the shader cache they really did nothing to keep shader count under control and it impacts everything else
>>
>>1019054
Your theory is they add another shader for every shader already there for the cel shading and then another shader on top of that for the outline?
>>
They probably used a PBR material pipeline for stylized rendering, a shader that could have been defined with 3 parameters ended up required X textures, Y parameters, Z shaders per material, etc
>>
>>1019078
Nah, my opinion, specifically onwhat went wrong, not how they do the rendering in general, is they have way too many shader permutations. Like, not in a render pass, but in the game in general.

That or the thing that should be able to tell two shaders are really one and the same is not working properly, incurring a memory leak.

This blows up the shader cache size so to keep said cache manageable the game is constantly destroying and recreating shaders, which is markedly not a transparent process at all (like, rebuilding one takes about one tenth of a second). You drawing pass could be hyper optimized and as long as you have that problem it's never gonna be fast

How would you make this in 3D?

But the thing is ever since the beginning of 3D, motion capture is "THE" way to animate. Virtua Fighter did it, almost every PS2 game used motion capture did it.
>>
>>1019044
why speak on a topic you are genuinely clueless about? jibaro which has some of the best, most unique human character animations used 0 motion capture. you cant motion capture anything beyond humans and a small selection of animals and even when it is motion captured you still need animators to clean it up and push it to an actual good final form.
>>1017841
Pierrick Picaut is pretty much the best there is when it comes to 3d animation basics and his course (you can pirate it) is the best starting point for anyone getting into animation.
>>
>>1019052
>why speak on a topic you are genuinely clueless about?
I am not. Every single memorable character both in movies and video games uses motion capture. You almost never animate anything from scratch. Davey Jones used mocap, Golum used it. Metal Gear Solid 2,3,4,5 used motion capture. Every single 3D fighting game ever released used motion capture. 95% of the games released after PS2 era used motion capture.
>jibaro which has some of the best
No problem with it, artists are weird which is what makes them special.

But the fact is, 95% of the content released in the 3D entertainment industry relied on mocap.

The program that solved the modeling problem for good and got assassinated by Autodesk as a result.
1. Same interface for decades, already has 99% of tools you need, with an intuitive UI that any non-tech person can easily master.
2. Autodesk bought it, added extremely well Maya keybinds and yet nobody bothered to check the box.
3. When everything else failed, they just pulled the plug.

i got version 5 cracked for 32bit (got box and disks and sad i left it by my window as it got sun bleached) but 5 had GIGA PLYGON CORE and that made a huge difference on a shitty laptop (1.5ghz cpu and 1gb ram)- it ran better than 3ds max and blender ran like porridge. then 6 added GATOR and better syflex. i wish i horded the 64bit crack keys but i dismissed progress i guess. hope to find them one day- got autodesk 2014 crack anyway. it still didn't have thickness modifier... got pow pc since and blender 2.79 got g.e for fun and 4+ for better better rendering with xsi colour themes THICKNESS modifier, sim stuff but xsi had great ridged bodies but crap host soft/cloth bodies- great toon/ink renderer and high volume particles. it had its restrictions and plugin dependants.

The material definition is the equation plus parameters. Same parameters with a different equation would result in a different material.

As for UE, not quite. Pre-PBR UE versions, or id tech versions or gamebryo or whatever, already had distinctive looks. You'd recognize am UE3 game from miles away usually, or a quake 2 engine game and so on. It's got more to do with the nature of a middleware engine, the goal of which is to provide a ready made toolbox. If you want it to look distinctive, ljke say Guilty Gear Xrd that looks unlike any other UE3 game, you're gonna have to put some elbow grease into it, and it might be pretty expensive.

What is C4D good for that houdini and blender or maya or after effects don't do better?

I learned the latter four softwares on my own over many years for fun. But lately I've discovered there's a whole animation/cg/mograph scene in my town and EVERY SINGLE PERSON mains C4D. I'm not mad, I just don't understand it because in the forums where I learned everything, C4D feels like a forgotten product.

It gets shit done. Not as much cancer as the other 3d softwares and if you like to do motiondesign it has great stuff with MoGraph and fields. The pseudo-fluid dynamics with the new particel system is also pretty good (if you wanna go down the dark paths)

I kinda miss those times when Andrew Price was the main man when it came to Blender tutorials. Newfags to Blender don't realize how instrumental his autism was in the early days when it came to its exposure and even motivated professionals and talent to try it out. Before fousing on other things, he's had interesting intellectual discussion's beyond 3dcg that you don't get from industry fags and slop tutorials despite being more talented than him in 3d.

None of you are going to make it in the 3D industry. The industry doesn’t want you, your “style” is irrelevant, and your “passion” means nothing. Studios are drowning in Chinese portfolios better than yours. AI is already doing your job faster than you. And no, your donut, your anime bust, or your cyberpunk alleyway doesn’t make you special. You’re one of thousands churning out the same crap hoping for validation. Entry level offers are basically nonexistent. They only want seniors with industry experience.

Meanwhile plumbers are raking in more money than any of you will ever touch in 3D. They get paid on the clock, not in “exposure.” They don’t fight for scraps on freelance boards. They don’t watch their skillset become obsolete overnight because Autodesk decided to change their licensing model. A plumber apprentice makes more in a week than you do in a month of Fiverr commissions.

You’re not a future Pixar artist. You’re not a visionary. You’re wasting years staring at a viewport making fake pipes when you could be fixing real ones for real money. In four years, a plumbing apprentice has a house and a stable career. In four years, you’ll still be on /3/, posting “rate my topology” and seething about why no one hires you.

Stop coping. Quit 3D. Pick up a wrench and complete your plumbers apprenticeship.
