Retopology of Tunic

-

  Retopologizing of tunic asset in order to learn the process. I was running into an issue with hand-quad drawing so I then decided to decimate the model in ZBrush. Another problem that I am currently facing is then transferring the attributions of the decimated version onto the simulated version as for some reason it just wouldn't work. I decided to give up on it for now, especially when taking in consideration the fact that Unreal Engine renders in Tris which means converting the mesh to polys is kind of pointless.

Final Submission -- For Now

-
Final Submission Links Video Presentation:  Artstation Post: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/g0009L   Blog: https://kevinsrecord.blogspot.com/   I’ve been updating my software documentation to include information to help me in the future  I tried to import my character and clothes into my USD Omniverse scene but there were some problems with it and I haven’t been able to figure out why it wasn’t working.  For some reason the asset wouldn’t save and by extension wouldn’t update in the other scene. The assets also don’t appear correctly.  Since it seems to not work within the USD Omniverse I tried to upload it into a new scene but I don’t think I uploaded it correctly so it doesn’t appear well and I’m not sure how to fix this.  I plan on continuing this project past this class.

First post with my DIGM 540 project ideas

-
 This is my first blog post. Essentially the point of this blog for at least the next 11 weeks is to work on a project for my DIGM 540 class.  Some ideas that I had: Idea 01:  Essentially I want to work on my master thesis and use this blog as a way to organize my thoughts. In addition, I believe getting my teacher and peer input could be very beneficial, especially considering the premise of my thesis is about game design education.  Idea 02:  I am currently taking an independent study course with Kathleen Martin in order to understand and how to execute the character pipeline. I'm hoping to learn how to sculpt characters, implement Clo / Marvelous Designer for the character's clothes, and then be able to fully render it out into a game engine like Unreal Engine 5.
