Re: Material definition in Zbrush and weird shadows on normal map
If I were sculpting a barrel, I would first create a base in Max/Maya the same way a real barrel would be constructed: separate pieces for each wood strip and metal rings. It will help separate the materials and make the gaps between the wood more believable. Without seeing your UVs or smoothing splits, I would say you… -
Best technique for creating textures/Materials?
I'm curious to what technique everyone uses to create textures like rock or terrain? Do you hand paint yours? do you apply normal maps? Personally i'm trying to figure out what the benefit of using certain techniques are. For example the way i texture my models right now is simply modeling, uving, photoshop, then bringing… -
Re: [UDK] The Pit (Working Title)

Re: Andor likeness
@Eric Chadwick Thanks! :) I ended up using metahuman skin material, which I then edited for my needs. I know it's not the best idea, because Metahuman stuff has so much “bloat”, but for this personal project that I aimed to keep short it was good enough. I edited the material by disabling a lot of stuff and inserted my own… -
Rendering a scene in Maya using Vray GPU(As opposed to Vray CPU) messes up the fur material patterns
Vray GPU; "Vray" setting (I assume this means to just use CPU for rendering); Literally nothing is changed except the render method, both are Vray. I've been tweaking around with different settings, trying to fix this for over a week. This does seem to be exclusive to Maya/Vray2023 though, as it does not happen in Maya 2022 -

Learning material suggestions?
I went to a college for 3d art, my program got messed with so I didn't get a chance to learn stuff later in the pipeline and substance. After that I got caught in the tide of debt and making ends meet. Now its roughly 5 years later, with limited modeling in between, so my knowledge set is oddly patchy. I know enough that… -
