Re: Looking for UV unwrapping/packing critique
1) Yes, within reason. The more important pieces should get more focus, but don't scale them up to be obviously jarring in comparison to their neighbors. if your texel density is 100, the important pieces could be 125. On the other side, less important, less visible pieces can be smaller. They could be 75 for instance. 2)… -
Re: Shader - Specular Term - Fresnel
The way I've been using it is multiplying the final spec value by the frensel value then adding that to the diffuse * diffuse lighting. The fresnel value is usually extremely low (most non-metal surfaces are between 0.01 and 0.04 - metals can go up to about 0.5). This means that the specular result is strongest at glancing… -
[CE3] Vault 100 (Fallout fan art) [IMAGE HEAVY]
Hi Polycounters! Im a huge Fallout fan and with the imminent release of Fallout 4 I decided to work on something set in that universe. I thought the vault entrance room would be ideal as I really wanted to do a hard surface interior, and I always thought the huge "cog door" was a really cool design. While I wanted my… -
Re: Amazing Renders: How?
Where do I find the render report window if it doesn't pop up? Or maybe it did and I just don't recognize it as such, but I didn't see anything with red text in it. I'll try adding a light though. Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't the HDR file thing cast some lights or something? If it doesn't, what purpose does it… -
Re: LowPoly Bamboo Textured
Your rendered bamboo shoots are about 80x600 pixels, which means they need a texture of about (2πr) -> 240x600 pixels for a 1:1 display. Usually you can afford to go a bit lower. I'd go for a 512² like this: Which gives you two separate textures for the sheets, a border for the top edges if you need a broken shoot at some… -
Re: Oh gameloft..
Neither is sweatshop work if you go purely by it's definition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery But does that make it any different? It's psychological slavery and simply abusive. What would you call being forced (be it through peer pressure, fear of losing your job or whatever) to work 100-120h weeks with a mininal… -

Re: [Maxscript] random UV position of texture
Would it be possible to do it with the Parameter-Editor and UVW-Xform too ? Because i dont know OSL or how to access it. I can connect the UV value to a custom parameter but how can I make it (the custom value) random ? And how to do it with only on material for all meshes, so that each mesh get different random UV… -
