Re: Diffuse Refraction material ala frosted glass
Alright I have a video uploading to explain the overall ideas that went into this material and its execution.. and video just shows the effect better. I also refined the refracting glass a bit, as I had made an error in one part. Not serious, but it makes a difference. here's a new screenshot I'll give a short detail of… -
Re: Super High res SSAA screenshots in Unity
Stitching is not needed unless you want to make screenshots that far surpass your GPU limitations, like something crazy as 20k+. In your case you had the high res screenshots (similar to how people used to make them in Unreal 3) but not have them Super Sampled on top which is one of the key things. How were the dimensions… -
Re: First Modular Building
i think it is not a bad model as 4 the first modular stuff. I agree with all previous comments. On my side i can tell that your textures need more definition. E.g. stair steps could benefit from edges being lighter and "anti sliding" relief could be more defined and sharp. Basically, where people walk on and scratch… -
Re: Deformation Topology advice?
Yeah I've crawled through the scary bottomless pit that is the internet, i've already come across that. It only really explains knees or elbows. bending linearly in one direction. I need a good example of topology for complete oscillation of a joint, if you know what i mean? "waist/crotch/buttocks and armpit/shoulder" -

Re: DDS photoshop plugin explained
I went thru the programmer email-list threads I've saved about DXT. I know it's a lot of reading, but there's some really good info, might help your doc. Also answers some of the questions that have been asked... "Most textures used in games seem to fall in roughly four categories: 1. Textures with a lot of relatively… -
Re: Wrap texture around a helmet (possible with zbrush?)
Thank you for taking the time to record it as it will save time for everyone :) It is indeed a misunderstanding, mostly coming from using jargon too loosely. First off it's important to realize that the case of the previous artist (graphic flame pattern originating from the open edge of the helmet) is fundamentally… -
Re: Halo 4 Battle Rifle (WIP)
Yea, I've been looking at a lot of polycounter's texture sheets and watching and rewatching tutorials. I'm picking up on the subtle nature of the diffuse maps and highly contrasted spec for metals. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what kind of photosource should go only in the spec or only in the Gloss. Particularly… -
Re: UDK layer masking?
just use a LinearInterpolate node in your material. read the UDN materials compendium page to find out more about it that method cannot be used to apply vegetation though, but neither can the "painted layers" method. to apply vegetation it must be placed using the Foliage tool, and all relation there is to the landscape… -
Re: How To Get Faster... Faster?
Wow, I wasn't expecting this much response so fast, thanks everyone for all the great advice, a lot of stuff I haven't put much thought into before. Adij: I try to never sacrifice quality for speed, but when it comes to getting stuff done for a class project, its hurting me that I can't have both when I really need to.…
