Emiel Sleegers | Duration: 21h 52m | Video: H264 1920×1016 | Audio: AAC 44,1 kHz 2ch | 14,6 GB | Language: English
Learn How to Model, Texture & Light a Snowy Game Environment using 3ds Max, Substance, Marmoset, & Unreal
In this course, we will go over how to create a snowy environment using 3ds Max, Substance Designer, Marmoset and Unreal. This environment will include having a snowy cabin with terrain, nice trees and plants and will be setup in Unreal Engine. We will learn how to create procedural textures in Substance Designer and we will go over how to edit those textures very quickly so we can have multiple variations. We will then go over how to model our cabin and foliage inside 3ds Max. Once all of that is done, we will go into Unreal Engine where we will set up our scene, our materials, and apply different variations such as dirtness, parallax, mapping, vertex painting, and many more. We will add decals to enhance the overall scene, do some nice lighting and finally polish the scene.

Free Download GIS for Health and the Environment: Development in the Asia-Pacific Region With 110 Figures By Gerard Rushton (auth.), Poh C. Lai, Ann S. H. Mak (eds.)
2007 | 310 Pages | ISBN: 3540713174 | PDF | 4 MB
"As the world becomes more integrated through the trade of goods and services and capital flows, it has become easier for diseases to spread through states, over borders and across oceans – and to do serious damage to vulnerable human and animal populations. " American RadioWorks and NPR News, 2001 The global cost of communicable diseases is expected to rise. SARS has put the world on alert. We have now Avian Flu on the watch. Recognizing the global nature of threats posed by new and re-emerging infectious d- eases and the fact that many recent occurrences originated in the Asia – cific regions, there has been an increased interest in learning and knowing about disease surveillance and monitoring progresses made in these – gions. Such knowledge and awareness is necessary to reduce conflict, d- comfort, tension and uneasiness in future negotiations and global coope- tion. Many people are talking about the GIS and public and environmental health. The way we make public policies on health and environmental m- ters is changing, and there is little doubt that GIS provides powerful tools for visualizing and linking data in public health surveillance. This book is a result of the International Conference in GIS and Health held on 27-29 June 2006 in Hong Kong. The selected chapters are organized into four themes: GIS Informatics; Human and Environmental Factors; Disease modeling; and Public health, population health technologies, and surve- lance.
