Re: Convincing 3d that looks like 2d.... Wow
Shadow on the white clad guy's back under the half cape does not change. Nor do the shadows under his shoulder pads even when the right one goes vertical at the end of the move. Shadows do move on the flowing cloth. Also in the lower gif the shadow and light on the ear appear constant while the face does change. Hair is… -
Re: Mapping for modular textures
I saw the script in the past, but I'm still not quite sure what the advantage is. In the example I attached in my last post, you can see that I took the brick textures and ran them off the top and side edges. That way I can still tile those portions. Is the benefit of the script that you don't have to do that? That it… -
Re: Planetrism - Game Art Thread
I just managed to get the base done for our modular cave system. I built a pretty simple model kit that works with the UE grid. I´m also planning to figure out a faster way to generate cave systems, maybe with splines or procedural tools. Then I made a master material for rocks so they blend two different rock textures, a… -
Re: noob born babe
Jackablade, I think this is mentioned in the Steed book... [ QUOTE ] now that I think about it, it might be better to break apart the vertices along the line. I believe this would work independent of the engine/renderer too... [/ QUOTE ] is there any reason why this is a bad idea? What about intersecting planes to created… -
Re: J.I. Styles skin shader...render to tex?
that's what I meant with "send UVS as positions", if he changes the vertex shader in such a way, he would see a "render-to-texture" like effect in the viewport. Once that is running, just do a screenshot of viewport. todo so edit line 398: OUT.Position = IN.UV*2 -1; however I further analyzed the effect, and this likely… -
Re: Maya Vertex Chameleon
Ah good news! I'm looking forward to the shader. Also, forgive me for being so pushy, but I thought of something else that would be really cool to have: is there a plan to have 2d texture->vertexColors? next to the possibility to convert 3D textures to vertexColors, which is embedded already (I don't use these kind of… -
Re: Modeling Fine Detail
Well, you could have used modo's displacement sculpting tools for that. In modo you can UV map the hipoly surface to be detailed and pretty much paint a realtime displacement map that will add whatever bumps you paint without the need to have a high density mesh. You can also paint the shapes in photoshop in grayscales and… -
Re: texture transform tool
coded some design updates: booth the source and slice view are independent frames so they can be navigated in their own way with the mouse wheel. If you truck with the mouse wheel in the toolbar area you can change the split of the 2 areas. There will be a maximize tool as well similar to max or maya when you jump into… -
Re: Spikes in zBrush model when switching between subdiv levels
I've had this problem several times. For me it's usually one of three issues: a. I've accidentally cloned one or more vertices, and its floating around inside my model (STL will NOT pick this up). b. I have a area with alot of triangles. c. Zbrush is grumpy and does it because it can ie: a characters face has some points… -
Re: A low poly tree
I would thicken the 2d branches/stems on the leaf pane texture. As it stands now, they are quite thin, and will mip down to nothing. Right now, some of the leaves appear to be floating with no connection to the tree, and with mipping they may end up even worse. Using vertex coloring to get more volume and shading is a good…
