Don't know about that script you linked... never tried it, really. The only actions I've ever made are from recording things and using the playback to do what I need. What you're listing sounds like more of a Script than an Action, but I honestly couldn't tell you if that's true or not. Give it a shot, and keep me posted!…
@fabi_G Thank you for your insightful critique. Actually, I did not place the reference image first. I just wanted to see how things would look with a little ivy. I absolutely didn't work correctly there because I planned to fix those later; that's some sort of laziness on my part. However, the idea of using a human to…
Hey guys, Ive written a quick mini-tutorial for pulling cubemap and portrait background content out of the Dota 2 vpk and into Marmoset Toolbag 2. First off, a big thanks to Drew Watts who helped me out with some of the info here. What you will need: 1. GCFScape 2. VTFedit 3. Marmoset Toolbag 2 4. Adobe Photoshop or…
I've seen banding in the backgrounds in a lot of Toolbag 2 renders, so I figured I would write a short post explaining why it happens and how to fix it. First off, the underlying issue is a problem of bit-depth, there simply isn't enough values in an 8-bit image to represent a perfectly smooth gradient. The effect of this…
I had this problem before, and I cant quite remember what I did to fix it, but check the image size, image depth and image type(jpeg etc..) or just give it a try with a different setting in ndo, or a different image.
Let's continue. First of all, this procedure is for iClone 6, but only for G5 (iClone 5) characters, as iClone 6 characters can not be customized yet. What I start out with is a nude character. These don't come standard with iClone, but they can be acquired for 99 points ($0.99) in the RL MarketPlace…
dds can store all kinds of images but if you want to compress them you will probably end up using dxt. roughly I think dxt works by dividing up the image into 4x4 pixel segments and giving each segment a pallet of two RGB values and then can it use another two values in the mathematical thirds of the outer values. eg you…
Thanks a lot for your insights Fabi and Alex ! I have the same feelings you describe, something looks off but can't figure out really what. I always have trouble finding great balance between contrast / Sharpness / Readability. That's definitely great advice and I will try what you said as soon as possible. The image you…
