Re: Need Help! Substance Painter to Redshift for Maya workflow
Sorry, yes I was in a bit of a rush when I posted this so that explains the lack of paragraphs, apologies for that. I'm normally better at articulating myself but I was in a blind panic and under pressure lol. I had read the same regarding changing the fresnel type to metalness, but there is no option in my version of… -
Expert opinions - 3D Max - Skin vs Physique?
Hi All Having recently purchased a book by two of the guys from Panzar Studios (3DS Max 6 Animation With Character Studio 4 And Plug-ins), I came across htis snippet from the start of chapter 5 : In the latest version of character studio, Physique has more features than Skin, but they are more effective only on models with… -
Re: How Good Is The UDK For Blender Support?
FBX's import pretty much perfectly, although I had some issues with smoothing using fbx's. (Although I had the same issue using FBX's exported from Maya 2011 as well). The .ASE exporter (http://campagnini.net/2011/04/16/blender-to-udk-ase-export/) works very well also, I didn't have the same smoothing issues with that. I… -
Re: [Photoshop Extension] Lazy Save
Hello! I just tested again with the latest paid version 1.7.5 from Gumroad and actually, I managed to export a single layer as 16 bits/channel but it only works when exporting a single layer. When I try to export an entire group in the Selected Group Mode, the files keep getting saved as 8 bits/channel even though my PSD… -
Re: UDK, xNormal and tangents : what the hell is wrong ?
So I am a bit confused, I have run into this issue as well and concluded that the Tangents are also causing problems with the shading of my mesh. To fix this I have turned off Tangents in the export from Maya. Results are the same if I export from Blender as well so exporting without Tangents doesn't matter. So is it still… -
Re: Shading issues in-engine
In-house Our graphics programmer tells me it uses the exported tangent basis from the mesh so Maya? No options are available to the artist unfortunately, it'd need code support to tweak the exporter This neither, unfortunately Only the OpenCollada based exporter will work with this version of the engine :( It happens with… -
Re: PhyreEngine - Maya Grids and Units
Yeah that's my first step when working with a new engine. Make a 1-unit model, like a cube, and import that into the engine, see what scale it comes in as. And vice-versa, if you can export from it, make a 1-unit box and export it to Maya. But exporting is not as useful, since mostly you will be importing into the game. I… -
Re: Importing UV's into sculpted mesh in ZBrush
Ah yeah ChrisRadsby, just tried without the morph target and it does work just fine. Last time I tried it and had problems, I'd exported from Max, but this time the OBJ came from UVLayout and worked perfect. I think it may well be down to export settings. I just use the default UVLayout export (not sure if you can even… -

Re: Substance Designer > Painter workflow ?
Hey Julien, I have some experience with Designer/Painter pipeline. I'll preface this with I am a Material/Environment Artist. I've done a lot of research on the topic and I've described to one of our Tech Artists what I'd like to see in the pipeline and he has implemented the more technical side of things. So I wouldn't be…
