Hi everybody, I have a problem regarding normal maps and shading in Houdini and in Unreal Engine when I bring my HDA.

The ever-popular Xoliul Shader has now been given an overhaul and we talked to the geniuses responsible for it's awesomeness. Laurens and Robbert-Jan have been hard at work and what they're come up with will surely be a huge asset to everyone here at Polycount. As always, Xoliul Shader 2 is going to be completely free but…

I can only really find documentation that says that it was publically available in the past, and it's marked "Obsolete."

What level is your Dungeon Heart? I fell for the bad press myself until I remembered that gamers love to hate & dogpile on a percieved flaw.

I'll try to find resources that give you the general idea, will edit post with links just letting you know i am doing it now. edit these links should give…

The hair can get annoying, but if you brush them regularly it minimizes it. 3. Your cat won't pee on your stuff unless they have a bladder infection, feel that their…
Hi, We reworked the track surface ....again. :) But we are happy with the latest results. Let me know what you think. Here is a quick overview what it looks like at the moment and how we did this. We still use the two base materials which are blended by vertex color like before. On top we use a parallax decal with a…
