For some reason I'm not allowed to post in the Final Submissions thread and all attempts to post there result in a message saying that I need to wait until a moderator approves my post. Until it's fixed, I post my submission below. "A Peculiar Discovery" and "The Reveal" by Wiktor Wąsowski A Peculiar Discovery My first…
Let's say I have a large asset of an old stone wall. I want the wall to have moss, dirt and a stone base material. I know I need to make masks using Painter that I then use in UE4 with my tiling materials. Here's what I know... From what I understand is you make 2 UV channels. UV1 is a 0-1 layout of all the UVs with no…
Hello Polycount. I am 3rd and final year student of Game Design and for my honours project I am doing a stylized environment in UE4 . The deadline for this project is at the end of April, so I have a just over a month left. Inspired by Bilgewater Slaughter Docks from League of Legends.…
Hello guys, Normally i'd be asking this on Zbrush forums, but i'm in a hurry and last time i used those forums to ask a question it took them a whole week to evaluate and post my topic... So let me ask it here instead :) ! I made a fairly detailed stone slab which i turned into and insertmesh so i could use the curve mode…
I agree that the vignette is distracting. The materials overall seem much to similar in color and tone (might partly be the lighting), only exception are the bricks and the most saturated part seems to be that one rightmost wall panel. I agree the scale of things and details seems off in many places. Compare the size of…
i hate art theft and all, but keep in mind guys that these are some peeps that are just coming out of school. while I never stole anything, I'll certainly admit to not quite understanding and appreciating the gravity of my actions and choices. as true just mentioned in the post above, she's got that 100k debt, and if she…
Yeah as a teenager I used to not have any money. It sucked because I didn't have all the games I wanted. Christmas/Birthday was the only time I could expect to get my hands on one. I also stole a couple games from a friends house, he was disorganized anyway and simply thought he lost them. I still didn't like having games…
Saw it last night. Quite enjoyable. Tons of things which annoyed me. *** SPOILERS *** One thing the old Indy movies always had was some kinda of secret society or cult - some mysterious guys would appear early in the movie and leave us wondering who they were, until later when it's revealed. They did that in this movie…
It does matter, approach all props with the same level of quality as you would a key item or character and you will go far. Overall it looks good. For one you don't see mayn town signs like this, so it's hard to find reference. I guess this would be one - http://taniml.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/one-way-street-sign.jpg…
Correct on all accounts. It's much better to simply make sure the normals are always normalized then normalizing them when rendering. You can also use the blue channel to store a 255 bit map (like a height map for instance) if you are not interested in supporting normals pointing backwards(negative Z). If we can assume the…
