Re: Need help with lighting
frubes - Nope, disagree. Lowering samples till the lighting is right is quicker and more intutive than rendering out seperate passes to manipulate in Photoshop. The thing is to get it looking right in the first place and with the out of the box render the result is more natural. You mentioned multiplying ao as the law, you… -
Skeletal Mesh Custom Lighting
Heyo, running into a problem here using Custom Lighting in UDK. While using Skeletal Meshes with a Custom Lighting Material, adding two or more lights into the scene results in weird shadowing artifacts.

Photorealistic lamppost scene
The objective of this project is to seriously improve my photorealistic skills. As of now i've only touched the modeling and texturing part, meaning that all that comes with post-production is yet to be seen (but if you have any suggestion it would be greatly appreciated.)

Exporting animation to Viewer breaks my lighting
Hey! I'm working on a little environment that features some lights and some basic object animation that I want to make a Marmoset Viewer showcase of when it's finished. I'm pretty early in the process, but as I'm pretty new to both Toolbag and Viewer, I wanted to make sure both work fine at an early stage. Here's a Viewer… -
Re: UE4 Weird Lighting Issue
Hi @SopheeJay! Tested the meshes in U4.27 in a default Third Person Level (using UV01 as lightmap UVs). I think the issue is caused by the shading/vertex normals of the meshes (smooth corners?) combined with the angle of the directional light.
