Re: Mudbox still can't generate tangent space normal maps
It's the only fix that's around unfortunately. Look, xNormal is a production-quality baker that's not really hard to use. If you have xNormal and Handplane you can easily bake normal maps that work in 99% of renderers out there, choosing between MikkTSpace, Unity, Max, Maya, Source Engine, and UE3. You can write a batch… -
Re: What normal maps work seamless with SP1?
So let's say i want to create a normal map that works in substance painter 1 by creating it in Xnormal from geometry files that come from 3dsMax. Once i create the normal i would drag the .tif file (yea, i like tif files) into the 'textures' tab from SP and then drag it into the 'select normal map' section so it would show… -
Xnormal - normal map issue
Hi ;) I ve an issue with Xnormal I m following a tutorial, I m doing the exactly same than the mentor, and I ve a different result. I ve strange green and purple area, and I don't know why. - I m using a cage with exactly same topology - uvs are right - I reseted the polygon's normal - reset X form - exported in obj with… -
Normal Map differences!?
Hi all Im visiting this forum for a long while now. I finally decided to make something that i can also post here. Im in the progress makeing a nextgen game character. But i have a problem with normal maps. Im very confused about the differents between Normal Map Shader: The RTT Normal Map looks very good but in the… -
Blender, Normal Mapping Artifacts, SuperPNG
Hello everyone, I've been struggling since yesterday with a problem related to normal maps, and visual artifacts. To keep things short: I applied some normal maps to my geometry, funky stuff started happening, visual artifacts, visible banding of the geometry, visible seams of the normal textures. Tried different… -
Re: Maya: Vertex Normal precision errors when smoothing mesh causing normal map artifacts
I didn't get a good bake when I replicated your model, and I noticed this issue on a hard surface weapon that I was doing a couple weeks back, and switched to xNormal to do bakes which fixed it. Now the vertex normal anomalies are definitely there, but my point is they are so small, that when rounding to an 8bit value they… -
Re: Normal Map Question
Have you baked the normal map directly from Maya? I'm actually a Maya user but I've never actually bake maps using it. Have you tried Xnormal or that new Handplane Baker release just to compare?. That's how I do my normal maps. I'm slightly confused as to how you've used the cage there but don't worry about it, I've never… -
xNormal - Bake artifacts and visible seams in normal map
Hi all, I'm having some difficulties baking a normal map in xNormal for my tree that I sculpted in Zbrush. Here's an image of the artifacts and seams that I'm getting: As you can see there are these dark grey artifacts and visible seams where my UV's are cut. I used Zbrush's UV Master by splitting the tree into polygroups.… -
Normal Map - ugly spots
I made a low-poly dude in Maya and unwrapped it in Roadkill, then I exported it to Zbrush and made the high-poly. Then I wanted to try baking a normal map in Xnormal and that's where I got the problem (I think). So first, the vertical line trough my model, can this be because the Normal Map is mirrored? And the second, the… -
Mudbox diffuse/normal matching problem
Hi guys! I'm currently experimenting with my workflow in mudbox. What I'm aiming to do is this, start a sculpt in mudbox without having to create the original mesh in 3ds Max -> define the shape -> sculpt the high poly and paint the texture-> export a lower level mesh and UV map it -> bake the normals with xnormal ->…
