Mass Effect 3 - Tram Corridor - HS Study
Hi All, I recreated a scene from Mass Effect 3. It is currently only high poly objects. After discovering that this entire scene was created using tileable UV strips, I'm uncertain if I will progress forward or try an alternate approach. All comments and criticisms are welcome! REFERENCE/CONCEPT: HS Study: Feedback is… -
Creating a rim light and saturation shader in Maya trouble
Hey, I'm trying to tweak a style study I'm doing on Super Mario Galaxy As you can see my Rim lighting shader is just tending to white and I have no idea what nodes to use to make it apply to the saturation as well. In the image I'm using a SamplerInfo.facingRatio > Ramp.VCoord and the ramp into the lambert's incandencanse.… -
Re: ZBrush Tri Part insert mesh welding disaster
Updating with more info: This mesh was made in Blender using symmetry modifier for the left/right side, since the end pieces was simply rotated. I thought this might be the problem so I applied rotation/scale/location (Blender's equivalent of reset x-form) before exporting, didn't make a difference. I also tried mirroring… -
Re: Quads and Tris and some other things.
I prefer to work in quads as its easier to visualise and just looks 'pretty'. tris are evil IMHO,seems a bit old school to me, though i do still tend to turn 'some' edges before I am done. Also If you have badly placed tris when exporting to zbrush, these areas will smooth badly, forming a visible 'nipple'. My general… -
Re: Help understand texel density and few other texture related stuff - modular enviro
I've tried making an atlas today, prior to reading your post, Eric, didn't go as expected... I made a simple plane in Maya, 1 meter x 1 meter and a 1024x512 texture map which I divided into 2x 512x512 textures, left side was bricks and right side was metal. I then tried to tile the texture onto a plane using repeat UV from… -
Re: [WIP] [UE4] Victorian Alleyway
Definitely! I think I'll tackle the dirtiness with vertex painting/decals, that way my modular stuff can be varied up a bit. Had a day and a half off from moving, so I was able to get the main trim texture for the scene through a first pass! I tried to get as much variety in there as I could, so it can be used almost… -
1000-1500 tri character - reasonable timeline?
Hey people! I'm a hobbyist gamedev/artist who's thinking about doing low poly character work on a freelance basis. I just finished this model here, 1184 tris & 128x128 res texture, and it took me about: 2 working days - modelling 1 day - UV unwrapping 3-4 days(?) - texturing These numbers aren't really all that accurate… -
3DSmax Problem : Black Tris showing in renders!?
Hey guys, sorry to bug you all but this is getting to be a pain in the ass for me. Im talking about the black tris in the screenshots, mainly around the motif as the other areas arent mapped properly yet. For some reason depending on the view I take a render from these pop up out of nowhere and dissapear depending on the… -
Re: Workflow question: generating height/normal before Substance
Sorta, bit it doesn't work well . I tried to go that hi pass way . blur a bit and treshold dark lines and then add white value to initially highpassed picture ( right in my example) to isolate cracks only and clean small dots noise but it kills a half of tiny crack lines too. then I tried to expand /bevel what left of… -
Re: iphone4s tri count limit
There are a ton of factors to consider when dealing with framerate; the engine you are using, the amount of draw calls, the texture sizes and amount of them, what kind of scripts are running, and then also tri count. Generally you will want to research what is best for your Engine on that platform. But I would say just…
