Re: DOOM - Reaper's Rifle. Critiques!
I'm rendering in Marmoset Toolbag. The Material from Maya is just a Lambert but Marmoset uses its own Blinn Environment. The Only Texture on it is the Normal Map (To show the Bake from High to Low) If you want a nice looking render Marmoset, UDK or CryEngine both give really nice results with a bit of work on the right… -
Re: One or Multiple Meshes?
If you're writing your own engine you can just try this stuff out. More meshes per asset will probably mean more render calls, which means lower FPS. If you have separate meshes for each part, you can just combine them into one mesh as long as they don't need to move relative to each other. If there are multiple texture… -
Re: Sketchbook - Yannage
Definitely do some basic realistic human studies and sculpts. Most if not all artists are judged on how well they can replicate the natural human figure. It's easy for artist to hide behind the guise of style and claim mistakes as intended details. Also don't show renders on a black BG it looks quick and dirty and it's… -
Re: Maya 2012 bevel tool help
Hmm, well I used the Vertex Normal Edit tool and it appeared that all normals were facing the correct direction. I've deleted the object history several times, and I ended up selecting the entire object, reversed the normals a few times, and was able to somehow apply a second bevel successfully. Now that I'm on the third… -
Re: Vray vs Arnold
cause arnold is made for feature film animation... its really fast with direct light... but not that fast with indirect gi lighting scenes... it work really well with dispmaps, hair, volumetrics... but its a brute force only render... no light cache no irradiance map... just brute force gi... think the easiest way to see… -
Re: 3DSMax RTT - How to bake using alpha thru DIF/NRM/etc.?
hmm, that's really hard to tell without looking at the actual file. Did you try the preset meanwhile? The greyish/yellowish color, is that from the diffuse map or perhaps the mesh color of the lowpoly you are rendering from? Or the background? Try setting distinct colors for those in order to find out. The white spots… -
Re: NORMAL MAP HELP
A few simple things to check: 1. Does your projection modifier include the high poly mesh? 2. Did you enable projection in the Render to Texture Dialog Box? 3. Is your high poly mesh visible? If not, do you have render hidden geometry checked? 4. In the Object properties boxes for both your high and low poly meshes, check… -
Re: Normal map seam
Which is different from whatever the OP is using, which is something in the viewport. If this model is meant just to be viewed in the Max viewport, and nowhere else, then bake with one Smoothing Group, and use 3Point Studios' shader. Or if for Scanline rendering, then use a Standard material with a Normal Bump map. However… -
Re: warlock
Thanks for your comments guys :) Finally I had some free time to finish my warlock and compose the final scene. I "rendered" the character in realtime with Xoliul shader (thanks to Laurens Corijn for this awesome dx shader :) ) and I rendered environment with final render (because realtime shaders have some problems with… -
Re: Steam Truck pimp (Cinematic spam / Image heavy)
Honestly I think these renders are just killing this piece. That enviro in contrast to how amazing the truck is - well it's doing it a HUGE injustice. I know the focus is the truck but honestly you can make the enviro 100x better. The renders seem really photoshoped and edited to the point that it's hideous at this point.…
