I want to share the Photoshop extensions I released recently. I realized while working on Overwatch that ever since Quixel Suite died off, there hasn’t been a good way to paint normals or generate normal/AO/cavity maps inside of Photoshop. Blizzard had their own tools for doing so but there hasn’t been a publicly available…
Beginner here, confused about Quixel megascans textures. Particularly the texel density and scan area values they provide. I take it that to display the textures in their intended scale we should follow the listed values. For example, Brick Wall…
Hi! I’m looking for advice on implementing a game asset like this. It’s a platform made up of several objects placed tightly next to each other, forming a single surface. I’m interested in methods to texture-paint such an object as shown in the screenshot. I want to achieve a seamless surface — say grass, a meadow, or…
I wanted to create a convincing safety reflector material for a future project. I spent a weekend toying around with it in the latest version of Unreal. Here is a description of how retroreflectors work: https://sky-lights.org/2020/08/10/qa-how-bicycle-reflectors-work/ These reflectors are cast in transparent plastic with…
it's just usually part of the texture....something like.... where l & r are seamless to the main texture and seamless to each other and the part above the window is a separate part of the texture sheet or a different texture altogether... it's pretty easy to make as the right is just a partial section of the left side of…
I am super confused. All of a sudden, Marmoset does something weird with roughness channel. I am working on modular pipes. So far I created two texture sets. Steel texture set: And iron texture set: I made steel textures first in Quixel Mixer. Then I just copied the project and made some changes to color of the base metal…

This week, I refined the UVs and began the initial texturing pass in Substance Painter. The focus was on improving the UV layout for better texture distribution and for establishing the base materials and surface details.
Hey everyone, I'm currently working on the highly-detailed cockpit of an F-15, and I've reached the texturing stage where I need to label all the buttons, switches, and panels (screenshot attached). I'm looking for advice on the most robust and flexible professional workflow: Would it be better to take a UV snapshot into…
[short version]Hi all, not sure if this is even possible, but is there a way to keep the Texture Coordinates from a Procedural material, yet have them apply to a model using a different Texture Coordinates method? Possibly via Mixing or Math? [long version]I have a Procedural material which was made on a Plane using UV…
