Re: Custom Gloss Maps
actually it's better to lerp than multiply. if you do a linear interpolate, with a low value of 8 (in channel a) and a high value of 256 (in channel b) and use your gloss map as the alpha, it'll give you a much cleaner result. the reason for this is that your gloss map has values of 0-1 with 0 being black and 1 being… -
3ds max rounding errors?
Hi guys, i'm having the following issue. I was asked to export an existing 3D scenario from 3ds max into the Unreal engine. The original scenario had a scaling factor (system unit) of 1 unit = 1 centimeter. The modell appeared to be too big after the export into the UDK editor. That's why I changed the scaling factor to… -
(Solved) UV Scale in SP vs Material Tiling SD
Hi, I have been wondering about this. When I author a material in SD, I am able to change the material tiling factor to check how it may look with higher UV scale. SD (this is under 3d scene -> materials -> edit): SP: While that works, I believe it isn't the same as the UV scale for material in SP. When I examine the same… -

Re: Unwrapping a Sphere?
@Noren you read it correctly. however in my experience baking and display rendering engines are not always perfectly aligned. especially when you are using more than 1 rendering engine (one for rendering animations, and one for rendering real-time content(in the editor or a game engine). so you can't always count on them… -

Re: Way early stages of a project, planning out UDK scale metrics
That's good to know about the height, thanks Bal! If it works, it works. 2.56px per 1cm seems kind of low and hard to calculate, its not going to land you on a power of 2 as often as using 2px per 1cm OR 4px per 1cm 128uu x 2.56tx = 327.68px (256 or 512?) 128uu x 4tx = 512px (512 it is) It seems like going a bit… -

I’m looking to commission two clean, animation-ready humanoid base meshes — one male and one female — that I can use as the foundation for clothing and character variants. Project Overview The meshes will… -

A detail normal map is just a very small normal tilling map (typically 256*265) with just noise on it, if used well it can be used to give high frequency detail to a surface. You can use it to give noise to metal surface, add small cracks to wood, noise to concrete, mimic leather surface, etc. Tip: If you use a "woobly"…
