Re: Texel density "standards" in UE4 ?
Hey wapc, I know that is kind of difficult to wrap your head around the "texel density" topic. I'll try to make some additional sense, based on what I understood by the time (hoping that helps you). :) To have a consistent look from different textures in your environment/game is a good idea to set a common parameter to all… -

Something I figured out
I figured something out that you can do when sizing brushes that I never thought would be something they'd have. Let's say I want to increase my brush by 128, it's at 256, well, normally I could do 256 512 1024 off the top of my head right, well I wanted to d 256+128, I don't know that off the top of my head. You can type… -
Re: New Freelancer Looking for Crits
this is a horrific abuse of texture space. you'd be way better off giving it two materials, one for the end at something like 256*256 res, and then another at 256*256 res for the cable itself, but tile it across the length of the cable. -

Re: Hand-painted Wells
Hi Halasi, I really appreciate your critique. I am going to try tiling in this project - it was my plan from the beginning. However, I must say that the whole topic of tileable textures confuses me immensely even after having done much research on it. So if I am going about uv layout incorrectly or anything it is because I… -
Re: sigh... crysis...

Necessary budget for building a PC to become a 3D Game Character Artist
Hi. I'm planning on working in the game industry as a 3D Character Artist (it could be AA, AAA or indie, though I'm focusing on stylized characters so maybe AAA is off limits). I'm currently on my way to finishing my first decent-quality character for my portfolio. My current specs are: - Motherboard: ASUS H170I-PRO - CPU:…
