Re: Solved: Adding new information to the ID map?
Normally it is possible, but we've run into an unexpected issue with CID maps. For now, what you can do is use your ID map to create a custom mask: Select the color you'd like to mask with, using the Magic Wand in Photoshop. Create a new layer, fill that with white. CTRL+A, CTRL+C to select all and copy. Open DynaMask for… -
Re: The Snow and Ice of Uncharted2?
yeah using a mask to blend the textures can work really well, hell you could even blend seperate materials with the mask. And you could also have the snow build up only in the crevices and on overhangs if you made a cavity type shader, and combined it with the masks. The only issues ive run into when using masks, i call… -

Maya windows and marking menus misaligned from the cursor... Can't use program. :(
I installed GoZ, and Maya freaked out. All of my custom marking menus and windows are misaligned to the left. Like, when you click the file menu, you don't see it because it appears off screen. Also when you use marking menus everything isn't aligned with the cursor. Its super difficult to use to impossible. I'm using Maya… -
Maya/Arnold colour variation within MASH-distribution
Hey there kind people of polycount, so I've been trying around with various forms of "distribution" of objects in Maya/Arnold. Mostly nParticles and MASH. For the time being I've found MASH to be the most practical out of the two. However, my question concerns the variation of colours within the instances created. A very… -
Re: Answered: Dynamask is always grey
Hi, I've noticed some strange behavior on my machine which might have something to do with the issue? In order to prevent my masks turning grey I close 3DO before editing the mask in DDO but everytime I do this the 3DO window opens anyway. Its not active (the 3DO icon isn't triggered) and the window doesn't update. Is this… -
Issues with assigning materials
I have been following this tutorial from the Quixel wiki on Workflow Primer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyJJAp17K-Y And around 2 mins in I start having issues. When creating smart materials, they do not adhere to the selection processes for masking. For example, when I first added the Dirt Teal Metal it added it with… -
Using AI to create hand-painted textures.
Texture projection method The main method of creating texture using AI is to project the generated image onto the model from several angles. Important This technique does not exclude a person from working on textures. AI is a tool that speeds up the process, not completely automated. Also, when working on textures, work in… -

Re: Has this been discussed yet? Dynamically changing normal maps?
Aye, doing the masks with vertex colours works and it's cheaper than hauling other mask maps around (though the masks can be a smaller resolution and you can use a channel per mask zone getting 4 mask zones in a single texture), but it's much harder to control and needs to be setup on a per character basis (whereas mask…
