Re: Retopology & baking - teeth/horns/spinities
Unless you're going to have really specific color grading set up in your texturing process (like Darksiders) I would build 1 or 2 horn variations, and 2 teeth variations based on your model and then bake those out and place them in their correct spots after baking. If you don't sweat the small stuff, you'll save tons of UV… -
Baking Material information into one single albedo
Hi I’m trying to bake all PBR material information into one single albedo map, so that I can plug that single color baked map into an unlit shader in unity, so far I have tried to setup the model in Maya, importing the textures from substance painter, and making a transfer map operation. I've also tried making… -
How to make World of warcaft models/textures?

Re: Baking AO using MR
Vary your bricks greatly. You often have to exaggerate things to get them to bake well. You can count on small details being lost or barely making an impact. I think he has some other tutorials about this too, one explains why you shouldn't go crazy and sub-divide like mad and waste your time painting sub-details. Always… -
Hip Hop is Dead [UE5 Remaster] [WIP]
This is a dust off / remaster of an old piece that's about ten years old by now (barf, time, why?). It was originally done in UE4 with Quixel Suite for the texturing. This project is special to me for a variety of reasons, but it definitely needs a facelift to stay in the portfolio. I'm mainly looking to improve the… -

Re: {WIP} 1970s GM New Look bus model.
@sacboi I honestly don't even really know the first thing about baking anything in Blender. For the most part I am just self taught from trial and error and some basic guides to solve specific problems. I have heard of high poly to low poly baking where I assume you model a high poly version and bake the shading and such… -
Re: Substance Painter - Persistent Baking Issues
You'll need to make sure uv splits have hard edges and that texel density is consistent. Also arrange it so that UVs are straight (as much as possible) and that you have a decent amount of padding (8px @2048 as a minimum) If you're being really thorough you should pixel snap your UVs as well. In a perfect world you would… -
Re: Baking multiple object's AO in 3ds Max: I keep getting black BGs
I think its a bug myself. seems to just get it into its head to ignore rtt background colours sometimes and there's bugger all you can do to persuade it otherwise. its usually fixable in photoshop by selecting according to alpha, copying to a new layer and then defringing/dematteing over a plain white layer but its a toss… -
Re: Advice when baking thin strips
Hey thanks for suggestion. And the thread about baking. I'll be sure to go through that. :D When you say 'make the highlighted edge the seam', do you mean that centre dark green line? If so, I take it's essentially a case of cutting the strip in half...? And re-enforcing the hard edges with support loops?
