Re: Help on game development.
Thank you Rick, you are very helpful. The link you provided was the exact example I was looking for but after observing it your reply to my "so it's safe to say" remark is confusing. The model in the link seems to be modeled in the same way that I ask you about (street, sidewalk, and land as one mesh with other objects on… -
Re: Simple, artist friendly version control?
This might not be exactly what you're looking for, but in terms of having local backups I like to use Bvckup2 (https://bvckup2.com/). It's perpetual software, data is saved to your chosen destination (I use a separate portable & encrypted SSD to backup all my personal files, but local network servers might work too),… -
Re: Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map?
Cage tweaks can be used in some situations, however they do not work the same in all apps, need to be redone when editing the mesh/doing revisions as mentioned about. I'm not terribly interested in discussing band-aids to fix the symptoms of the problem, moreso the actual problem itself. =) I think most people understand… -
Re: Average to Planar ?
No it works on vertices. But like I mentioned, converting selections in Maya is easy. You have a foldout menu for this under Modify. Or just ctrl+f9/f10/f11/f12. Actually I think the script does produce some result if you were to run it with faces selected. I managed to do this myself by mistake and oddly enough it… -
Re: Monitor Recommendation - For Real time rendering and Photoshop

Re: Lowpoly Blizzard style env props
Right - you have plenty of loops and polies to map one plank to 1 or 2 quads, or to work with rows, so why not do so? This would give you some interesting possibilities. I'd make one X/Y tiling part - to be used everywhere, one X tiling part to blend with the floor, and one X tiling part with broken planks. You could use… -
Re: Xnormal question
with the AO it seems to be creating the light inside or outside the cup its hard to tell but if its doing this to the outside of the cup its because it is relying on the fact that the bottom is going to be sitting on top of something such as a tab;e so whats it does is create the shadow cast under to show how it will react… -

Formula to convert 0-1 linear into sRGB
Hi! Sorry if that was asked a lot. I need a formula to convert 0-1 linear(which is used in material sliders like 3ds Max,...) like 0.7 into Photoshop sRgb(0-255), what is used in PS histogram. I need that for non color maps, like roughness. I don't know if the correct formula is x(linear)*255, or do I need to factor in… -
