Re: Blender Zbrush Workflow / Normal Maps

I just had a set of swords go up on the Asset Store and when I worked on those I don't remember seeing any seams at all. Now on this new model I have this: There are nasty looking seams everywhere. I bake out normal and ao maps with… -
Re: Blended normals hack for fake SSS
fearian> I could disable the red color tint and leave the terminator edge be and you would just have the blended normals feature left. But thing is, blended normals is all about varying the lighting. First of all it is based on the normal map, so depending on what you are faking with your normal map you will get different… -
Hard Edges problem - Maya Turtle normal map bake

Re: Rendering normal map information to lightmaps
You should be able to do something like this in Unity by using Directional Lightmaps and doing a post process on the resulting lightmap files using the light normal map, along with the normal map of the individual normal maps from each lightmapped renderer. Its pretty complicated but possible. You would also want to define… -

In general even without using lightmass are there any special settings for using normal maps besides changing the import to normal map. It just always seems that my models look so… -

The problem is I have to bake the normal map and ao to a texture, and render the Mental Ray Color pass from a scene. Which…
