[Blender], interior spaceship, PBR metal material

Kman1999

Hi everyone. I'm working on a game, and it is my first time making a full environment. The game takes place in a big spaceship. I have my favorite reference image that I really want to go for. I don't want the exact detail, but I want the metal material to look as good as the reference. These are what some of the rooms will look like, but I was told by the boss to export the individual ideal pieces to Unity with material on them. That is what I'm trying to do now.

Welcome to Polycount!

What is your question exactly? How to make a material in Unity? How to create a material in Blender and export it to Unity?

It will help others to help you if you clearly explain what you want help with. https://polycount.com/discussion/63361/information-about-polycount-new-member-introductions/p1#asking

Hi Eric. Thanks for replying. I think what I'm asking is how do I make my material in Blender look like this wall? Like what  material Settings should I use. When I tried making a material before it just seemed flat and lackluster  even with a musgrave texture.  The material will be baked on the object then exported to Unity. PS this is a modular environment 

Thank you

I think it will help you to learn about Physically Based Rendering. http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/PBR

Hint: this metal material is a mix of albedo, occlusion, roughness, metalness, normal, and a touch of emissive. All those ingredients are part of PBR, except for emissive which is kind of a special case (but really pretty simple to make).

Post your attempts here, and we'll try to give you feedback and ideas. Good luck!

Ok. Thank you. Will do

I forgot to ask a specific question. When baking do I want all separate maps or combined into one?

Depends. Often for modular environments you'll use a combination of tiled textures and trim sheets.
