Re: ObjectSpace NormalMaps - What is the Neutral Color ? And Normalization ?
Maybe you didn't understand the point, the objective is not to write (2*a)-1 as (a-0.5) * 2 which is exactly the same but cost more on the gpu. Indeed simplyfying the matter: a = tex2D() The monomial (a - 1/2) * 2 = 2a - 1 is equivalent. x)(2*a) - 1.0 costs 5 cycles on SGX540 y)(a - 0.5)* 2.0 costs 6 cycles on SGX540 z) a… -
Re: Rigging helper bones: And other nonsense.
A simpler method than that for a forearm twist is to create another forearm bone and link it the hand twist. Character studio has foretwist, this is pretty much the same method but with your own bone.

Re: Level editors
You know what, I totally agree. Using a browser based software renderer, you can't start fussing around with perfect z sorting, it's ridiculous. I think it's equally ridiculous to have realtime lighting, cutting down an already small polygon budget to like 20% of what it would be with just baked textures :D I'm sure you've… -

Baking normals in Modo: what could be the cause of those artifacts?
I'm a beginner with Modo so maybe I'm making some very basic mistake, since I was unable to find any mentions of a similar issue on Google. I'm trying to follow this very basic normal baking tutorial involving use of a single lowpoly mesh to bake normals. No high poly geometry, no cages, nothing special:… -

Hey there, I'm a Environment Art student and I made an account to ask this but.. What's the optimal way to retopologize basic assets?
