Shipping Pallet WIP
Working on creating some shipping pallets for a side project I'm working on. I'm kind of stuck as to how to make the plastic around the boxes. For the plastic I'm thinking about possibly making a simple spec map with a linear pattern to mimic the texture of the plastic. As always, crits are more than welcome. This is what… -
MaxScript: Biped Tangent Tool
Download Here! Here's a little script that lets you interface with Biped's TCB controllers with familar words like "Linear" "Slow" "Fast" and "Smooth." I know you can switch Bipeds controllers from Quaternion to Euler, but I've found that to be a little buggy at times. Anyway give it a try. Drag the script into the… -
Bend Deformer in Maya 2012
Hello guys! I'm trying to do something like that in Maya using the non linear bend deformer: (from Thiago Klafke's tutorial) I don't know why, but it's not working on planes and since I'm not familiar with deformers in Maya I don't know another way to do something similar to that. I've seen other threads like this, but… -

Re: Shading issue on flat surfaces?
Tried the plug in, cleaned it up bigtime! Turns out this feature is standard in Maya which I was using prior to this so I found it weird how I neved came across this problem in Maya before. Still gotta mess around with the settings. Should be some tutorial on Youtube about it. I think the linear shading issues now are… -
Re: Expert in a year - 3D artist
Export the packed preset. Make sure to unchecked srgb for metal/rough. Set rough to linear colour. Sometimes the rough will be in the green channel and not the red. You can check this by opening the metal/rough map in Photoshop and looking at the individual channels. Or you can make your own packed preset and put the AO… -
Re: Pre-rendered: Retro Sci-fi
awesome! really stoked you like it. As far as the lighting is concerned, yes I rendered the images out separately, then combined them in photoshop. You just "add" (screen or linear dodge) them together. I did most of the lighting with all the lights turned on in the beginning, but for the final image I broke them up and… -
Re: [PBR] Environment Challenge
This is looking awesome man, great job on finishing this nice environment, for your metallness and roughness when importing in UE4 from SP you should disable sRGB when you double click on the texture and if u`r using 4.5.1 when you select the node texture in the material you must set the sampler to linear color just do… -
Re: Do devs feel gratified from CG trailers and bullshots?
What I find most annoying is when a pre-rendered announcement trailer falsely advertises gameplay. When, for example, a game is portrayed to be very "open world" and dynamic when the real product is much more bland and linear. I don't mind if the graphical quality is tuned up to hell and back, but I would however like the… -
Re: Specular maps and Gloss maps
in maya you will need to get a hlsl, or cgfx shader like kodde said in UDK Gloss is 1 of your parameter inputs, it's just not called gloss, so just look for specular exponent. because this input expect above 1 values, you will need to eiahter multply your map a few times, or plug your map into a linear interpolate node and…
