Camera projection bake to UV's creates seams
Ok so I'm working on a project were a building is being destroyed. This is done with houdini dynamics. Now because the building will collapse it's already broken up into parts in houdini and then imported again in maya with alembic. I want to project a matte painting on this and bake it into the UV's. The projection looks… -
Controlling edge falloff on a worldspace projected texture
Basically I am trying to project a texture onto a mesh based on world space.. which works fine. I'm able to add by a negative constant to control how much of the texture is projected onto the up-facing geometry normals, and multiplying by a constant controls how intense the effect is. The problem I'm trying to solve is how… -
Re: How Do You Organize Your Projects?
Personally I keep a projects directory with a folder for each asset, structured like: project// --- backup - autobacks --- bakes - baked maps, and meshes to rebake from --- export - the outputs of the project if any --- img - refs --- import - the inputs of the project if any --- out - screenshots / video to send to client… -

Re: Questions about freelancing and mod project involvement

Again its good experience if you've never worked in a development environment and the structure could be helpful if you're bad at managing your time or staying committed to your personal work. Having other people to collaborate with and who count on you… -
Re: Normal Map: Meshes projecting into eachother
So by checking use cage in xNormal, it does an averaged projection. If a cage file is not present xnormal projects from an infinite distance thereby projecting distant pieces of the mesh on the wrong spots. Even if you have a cage assigned and don't check use cage, it ignores the cage and projects along the vertex normals,… -
Project organization questions
just curious how larger studios organize and work on their bigger games? Let’s say a game has a lot of different levels etc., - are there Maya project files just for assets pertaining to that level? Ive seen some people/studios do it where there’s a Maya project file for every single asset made. Wouldn’t it be easier to… -
Looking for a new collaborative project - short/music video or game
I'm a 3D generalist looking for a new project to get my teeth into. I can model high and low poly, unwrap, texture and rig, plus animate to a high standard. You can view my last project here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhwqEgao_PM (though it's 8 months old now). I'd preferably like to collaborate to create another… -
