Baking a Mess - xNormal/Baking workflow Help & Advice
Hi Everyone! As part of getting myself up outta the dirt in 2015, I am getting my bake on. Previously I haven't done much in the way of high to low baking; it's a weakness in my current skillset that I aim to rectify ASAP. So I made myself a really basic asset (an axe) in Zbrush, retopo'ed it in 3DS Max*, UV'ed the low… -
Re: Seemless normal map on a cube?
But you can use edge padding too, and then you should not get edge issues even on lower resolution. 2k for a simple cube wouldn't make any sense...Also you don't need hard edges on every UV borders. Actually its the reverse. You need UV splits everywhere, where you have hard edges, but you can have an UV split without a… -
Re: Normal baking question.
Yea, but do you know what's causing the issue? Because if not, you're just following a rule you don't understand. It could also come from an uneven normal blending because of the uneven triangulation + sharp edges. But in the blender shot it looks like you have hard edges for the cap segments. This would normally lead to a… -
Re: Autodesk Maya 2016
I find it awkward to extrude the edge using "new" extrude because the pivot goes into "normal" or object mode(?) i guess which is usually what you want in extruding faces but when extruding edges in 99% i want "world" space pivot. Now it is possible to click on that little circle on pivot to change the modes but on edges… -
Re: Expert in a year - 3D artist
Your UVs for that remote are not very optimized nor efficient. How knowledgeable are you with unwrapping and projecting UVs? If you have a hard edge it needs to have a UV cut at that edge. If you have a hard edge, that edge must be separated in the UV map. That hard edge needs to be separated to bake properly. When it is a… -

Re: Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map?
Yes, generally speaking, its better to use your geometry to support the larger shapes of your mesh, than the tiny little bevels. Adding bevels to the ends a cylinder for example can result in 3x the tri useage, so you might as well just fix your problems by adding more sides to it, as it will look better in the end as…
