Random Seed Node?!
Is it possible to change the Random Seed Value with a Node rather then having to duplicate the previous nodes giving you two nodes with 2 different seeds? For example, If I want to combine 2 different noise nodes, currently I need two nodes, each with a different seed setting. It would be good to have one Noise, which… -

Re: PS: Painting tones affecting lower layers at different values
Hard to understand the setup. How about using Group masks? But ultimately this might be done better in a compositing tool, where you have a better material-based layout. After Effects comes to mind. Heck, even 3ds Max's node-based material editor might do this better. -
[UE4] "Non futuristic'' sci-fi corridor

Re: Weapon Rig For Unreal Engine (Bone Structure)
Yes you are right. Actually I was thinking wrong about how Unreal Engine skeletal meshes works. I've read that topic https://docs.unrealengine.com/5.0/en-US/skeletal-mesh-animation-system-in-unreal-engine/ . Short answer is I've created a new bone between Tripod bone and Weapon bone. Weapon bone linked to plate bone and… -
Renaming bones
hello! I've got a ton of animation sequences for a vehicle all saved out into different Max9 files. The vehicle is using regular max bones for all the parts. The programmer I'm working with wants me to rename a couple of the wheel bones so I'm going to have to rename the bones for every sequence. Is there a quick way to… -
Animating low poly tree with bones?
I've been recreating low poly trees from WoW in SpedTree, and I assumed that SpeedTree would use bones for the wind animations. But it actually only uses vertex animations for the wind. The engine only uses bones for animation, so I need a way to create wind animations with them. The tree is made up of 4 different frond… -

Lethal/Non-lethal Directed Energy Sidearm
Concept can be found here, artist is Vadim Sverdlov. Here is my interpretation of its functionality. I've also altered some small things from the concept. The upper muzzle is also going to be modified to double as a taser for non-lethal takedowns. Here is my latest double smoothed blockin. Most things are going to be… -
Working with non-quad textures??
I've been using quixel 2 for a while but the performance, bugs, etc... So, I decided to give substance painter a try. Loaded a model I've already baked with 4x1 aspect ratio (that quixel handles normally) and my surprise was that it baked them at 1x1 stretching the uvmap. Does it really don't support non-quad textures or…
