Re: RadCity: UE5 mid-poly assets
Agree on the grass and would include a lot of the edges where buildings/objects meet the pavement or ground. Managing transitions helps a whole lot in selling an environment. Some grime decals or vertex painting in those areas will help tie everything together and add interest. Having some texture transitions around your… -
Where can I learn how topology should look when smoothened ?
Does anyone have any resources on how edge loops should look when smoothened? I always see these kind of weird edge loops when doing SubD modeling, but I'm not sure if it's supposed to look like that, so where can I learn what topology is normal when doing SubD? edit: Here is another image of the model from the front,… -

Re: Wip - Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 5
Sorry this is going to be quick, still at work, but first thing that caught my eye was the overall model doesn't look smooth, it appears very edgy. The front bumper doesn't appear to curve like in your reference, looks like you have a "edge" the bend should be a smooth transition. Next, the very front of the hood appears… -
Re: Mirrored and/or continous Surfaces and Smoothing/Hardedge
-Where you have hard egdes in you mesh, break uv. You use an hard edge to limitate extreme normal bending between 2 faces (90° degrees for instance), and thus limitate errors due to : 8bit format/dxt compression/unsync engine... -A break in uv doesn't require a hard edge in the mesh. =>You don't have to break normals on a… -
Re: How to make a hard surface low poly for baking, easily?
You need to split your UVs where you have hard edges and have enough padding between your UV shells. I would suggest reading through all the info on normal maps in the Technical Talk section of Polycount. e.g.:… -
Re: Hi-Poly Unwrapping...
In a simple case like that, I just would remap the cap of the cylinder but here are some solutions for more complex cases: If you don't care about the extra polies: Just extrude those "seam-edges" by 0/0 like FatAssasin said. The distortion will be hidden away in this newly created tiny rim. If you have Deep-UV or any… -
Re: [Finished] Weapon Art - McMillan CS5 (Sniper)
I have started designing the skin for the gun, made an additional texture pass and tested some renders of how the final images can look like: Ronin artwork made by a friend of mine, I just projected it on to the side of the gun. I am basing the colors and rest of the design on this artwork. In the image above of the gun… -
Re: Gears2 Environment Art
i'm not sure if i'm 100% right on this... but: say if your doing something basic e.g a plank of wood.... if you were planning to have it just in 3ds max, you would add edgeloops just around the edges for support... but if its zbrush,, you want to insert heaps of edges until you kind of have a tesselating square pattern… -
