Hi guys. I am trying to get better at texturing models but it is so incredibly hard to do so. Some of these questions may not be related to 3d at all but I have a few questions that I could hope be answered. 1. Do game artists usually paint in the values for the texture of the models? I am guessing that when they do so it…
Hey everyone! I'm not sure if a Minecraft texture pack really counts as a serious post for Pimping and Previews. However, since this is the main thing I've been working on in my free time for the past two years, I felt I wanted to share. :) So far, I have replaced all of the environment textures, all of the GUI except for…
Hi guys, I'm new here but I've seen a lot of support here for all things to do with Ue4, so I thought I'd try my luck and ask my own question here. I'm wanting to make a material that has a texture that pops in and then fades away, like raindrops on a surface. Now I know that I could use a flipbook animation node in my…
What kind of techniques might be used to texture the brick/stucco wall on the building below? I'm trying to learn this technique of texturing that doesn't seem to use UV maps, otherwise it would have to be huge. It's also not just one tiled textured as there's no repeating elements, other than the materials themself. Plus…
I like the model, it has great shape and looks cool! Have some gripes with the texture & UVs though: your unwrap is very inefficient. A lot of pieces could probably be mirrored chunks: parts of hair, the arms, small buckles. You also should try to be more efficient with where you plance the pieces within the 0-1 UVW space,…
Seems like a cool little tool, along the lines of Genetica, though not really as powerful yet. However it is free under the GPL. Obviously unfit for finished texture work, but it may be interesting for creating resolution independent bases for textures. http://neotextureedit.sourceforge.net/index.html
Here's the context. I've been working on some base skin textures intended for use throughout the project. The model will eventually be split into two materials, head and body. For covenience I've set them up as UDIMs for now so I don't have to do everything twice, and it makes working around the seam area a breeze. I'm at…
Hi!I'm working on creating a city landscape and I don't know what is the best way to work on the floor textures.Should I create UV map and work on one big texture or use materials and assign a texture to them?This is a screenshot of what I have now and I really don't like how it looks. How I make everything look connected…
Hello. I'm trying an interior viz project to get my hands dirty with UE4. It's my first real project using the engine. The issue is that I made a master material to cover most of my material needs. Now, some of the material intances are showing up the generic gray boxes instead of the texture maps. In the first image,…
