Re: Texel Scale?
Thanks guys. I can see how this is basically a simple formula, but I'm still not sure what or how to calculate and apply it...... the object I'm building and texturing is a static prop (vehicle), it's dimensions are: length:512 units (1 unit = 1 cm), and width and height both: 256 So the object, at 512 width x 256 height… -
Re: [WIP] RED V-Raptor camera, Plasticity practice
I'm back with some renders to show. However, they're not the ones you expected. Lenses: I wanted to achieve a realistic look. Not shiny and clean like it's from a commercial, nor dirty and scuffed like a game model. Artists have both types in abundance, so I wanted something different. Technical specifications: - 7 UDIMs… -
Re: LPC vol2 #4 - TRON
Neat challenge! I'm thinking of participating. I've got a few questions about the rules/specifications: 1. Is the use of vertex color allowed for lighting/shadows? 2. Is a per pixel gloss map allowed to complement the spec map? or is that too high tech shader wise? 3. Can we breakup or combine the two 512s worth of… -
Re: Gloss Map and a Gloss Value?
Awesome! Thank you! I had also work with a specular set to 1... don't know why I had it messed with there. >.> <.< But that was pretty much what I was looking for. I was even starting to stumble across it myself. Because I noticed in Marmoset it also controls the reflection blurriness. At a gloss of 1 and gloss value of… -
Re: Asus Eee Slate
seems wierd that everyone is bent out of shape over 256 points of pressure. My tablet PC has 256, and it runs like a dream. BTW, isn't it nicer to make thing look a little impressionistic over purely gradated? In fact, most of my brushes I turn down the pressure sensitivity, and create a little more visible brush strokes.… -
Re: modeling TV
"Yet another approach would be to create a texture atlas and map the lowpolys UVs to it." A bit OT but this brings to mind a Scifi environment mapped to just one 256*512 texture, consequently in the process as a lurking noob had my mind fairly blown into orbit unable to decipher the wherewithal how it was made, although… -
titlable textures (making 3DS max)
Hi all, I've been experimenting with some technqiues for making titale textures. I have made some square tilable textures using boxes and offseting them 256. This works well. To see/test if the tilling works. Now I have bricks that have been placed on the grid (16) and vertex snapped to getther. Only these bricks are 45… -
How do you combine UVW Coordinates with Texture Coordinates?
I am trying to wrap up the loose ends in various tools in Wall Worm. Almost all of these functions that are left to finish involve UVW... and are stalled due to my own poor math skills. One dilemma is that I do not know how to create UVW coordinates that correctly account for a texture's individual coordinates… -
Re: Tileable pattern generator - 3ds Max
Oke, I tried changing it to 256/512/1024 and the sizes of the boxes to 16/32/64. It works for all the patterns except the 3:1 herringbone ones. Since the length is 3 times the width, they are 48 by 16. If you divide 256 or 512 or 1024 by 48 it'll give a result with .333 or .666 which will make it impossible to make it… -
Re: WIP: Models for reel
With this first model I was mostly concerned with with my ability to shade things properly. I might bring this down to 256 x 256 but decided to leave this like it is and make it a unique texture. I'm still working on the texture. I have yet to add any overlays or anything of that nature just working the shading mostly. The…
