Re: New player : light set up to produce normal map and normal map question
normal maps do not store lighting information - they store surface normal information. many people mistake the coloring in a normal map for 'shading' but its not; converting it to greyscale is an arbitrary operation. you are going to have to try something else to get 'baked lighting' in textures. 1. by far the best and… -
3dsMax using ambient occlusion to determine how a surface recieves light.
Long topic field I know. I was wondering if there is a way to use ambient occlusion to determine how much a surface can be lit? For example, if I wanted to use a falloff map that uses the light and shadow functionality; could I use and ambient occlusion map or material to determine how much light will affect the falloff… -

UDK - Lighting/Shading Issue
Hey guys and gals, I'm new here, so plaese don't be too harsh. Anyway the problem i'm getting is strange shading on static meshes. (Check images below) I'm running UDK July 2012. It's modelled in Google Sketchup, triangulated and then exported as an .fbx. The texturing is also done in Sketchup, which doesn't invole a UV… -
Unwanted Light Spots when using Final Gather

It only shows up when final gather is on. I tried turning up all the settings under Final Gather, Caustics, and Global Illumination. Some of them… -

Photoshop Hard Light blend mode in UE4 shader?
Hello everybody, I am trying to figure out how can I create a shader in Unreal 4 where I can add a texture which would be blended on top of the Albedo with the same effect as Photoshop Hard Light. This is just intended to get some texture variation on tileable textures. This is my asset, (in substance painter) this is the… -
After "build lighting" the scene does not look the same
Ok this is my first go around with UDK (Also a bit embarrassed to ask such a simple question). So far I've been doing good by setting goals and then researching how to accomplish those goals. It's a slow but crucial learning process. I really want to have a specific look to the scene I'm making, and I achieved something…
