Re: Lowpoly enviroments?
Yes, vertex colors for the win. Just divide large surfaces in some different polygons and you will be able to vertex paint them with great results. Take a look at Dragon Quest IX (NDS) graphics, it makes massive use of vertex painting on the scenery: Look at the fifth screenshot. Grass appears to be so colorful, with… -
Re: Large Land Formations
My experience with large terrains: 2 racing games, approx. 8km x 8km map size - the terrain is sculpted as one big piece then chopped up into sections for artists to work on the smaller pieces - I brought the smaller pieces that were adjacent to each other into a file. I would then use a script that automatically blended… -
Re: Maxscripts - Stuffs I use and whatnot
I have these shortcuts for the delete stuff. UniRemover needs some work though. Only shift+x is using a custom script. All the other shortcuts are default max commands. X Delete objects. CTRL+X Deatch (poly) ALT+X Colapse (poly) SHIFT+X UniRemover Uni RemovermacroScript UniRemoverCategory:"Pedro… -
Re: Weird shaded-seam problem on meshes 3D Max
Vertex lighting is independent from vertex colors, you can have both on the same mesh. Vertex lighting sort of uses the same approach as vertex colors but to cast fake shadows on your object in the viewport quickly. Calculating shadows is what ties up a lot of the processor time when you click render or when you build a… -
Re: Mel Help
Just out of curiosity, what exactly are you making the pivot do? Isn't setting a pivot on a vertex just a matter of holding d (pivot mode) and v (vertex snap) and middle clicking over the vertex you want? -
Re: how do you apply AO to objects with tileable textures?
If you import it as a FBX it should bring the vertex colours in. Make sure you have replace vertex colours turned on. http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/FBXImporterUserGuide.html Then you just have to setup a shader with the vertex colour multiplied over the top of the diffuse. -

Re: Possible to blend materials in Marmoset Toolbag 2?
+1, Marmoset's fantastic for character and prop artists, but environment artists use this sort of thing a lot and we can't really use marmoset for beauty shots of our stuff. Shaders wise, I'd say most definitely we need '2 Splat' Vertex Blend - this blends two 'materials' (sets of input textures) based on vertex alpha -… -
Re: WIP: Building Environment
[ QUOTE ] vig, i may not be understanding your proccess, but how is that different than just taking the 2 textures and blending them with a mask in photoshop? The reason Crazy butchers script is nice, is it doesnt make you have to bake down the texture, it blends them on the model so you can have 2 seperate textures.… -
Re: [Chivalry] Mason Knight - The Face of Revolution, Maul of Sanguine Retribution
Reply by zetheros · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Arms & Armor, Chivalry: Medieval WorkshopNow I just need to pack all of these into +y +u. I feel like I'm doing something wrong. I'm zooming in and matching symmetrical UVs vertex by vertex, using the move tool with snap to vertex. It's really slow...
