Re: Experience with per pixel lighting?
yeah, the term 'how to do it' is a bit vague Pak It's a bit like saying 'how to do bi-linear filtering?' How to code a 3D engine that can do it? How to use a tool to place lights? Per pixel lighting is an engine feature that's simply implemented. You don't really 'do it' as such. It just 'is'. You should probably clarify. -
Re: normal map hard edges

yes, xoliul's a nice shader, use it. You're low poly is really messy. Avoid having too many edges ending up on the same vertex, and try to have as much linear and parallel loops as possible, that way you wont get wonky shadding from the smoothing groups. or... if you're lazy, follow the tutorial by heart, and use… -
Re: what other program lets you do this with motion
you have to activate motion panel->trajectories to display the curve and then click on "sub-object" (located above the trajectories-button, ingenious UI design...) to be able to edit the curve itself. now you can select existing keys in the viewport or add/delete from the motion panel. no problems with controlling the… -
Re: Gothic Knight
Does he have feet? Also the side profile is really static and linear, try and make it more dynamic. I scanned bridgeman's side profile of the human body for ya. Disregard his arm, I wouldn't model it like that. Also it doesn't have to be that dramatic, just don't make his body go straight down. Hope this helps. -
Re: Realtime Nuclear Explosion Shader [UNITY]
@billymcguffin Nice suggestion. They look more convincing now instead of spreading from irrelevant places. @Bruno Afonseca Well, the shader uses the alpha map to mask the lines based on the black and white gradient, and a slider tells where to cut the lines so when you give an animation to the slider it looks like the… -
Re: 3ds max blurring a texture map
Vertex color is interpolated in a linear way. The distance between two vertices directly controls the width of the gradient between them. You need to change the topology of the model to fix this. You can fix this by selecting an edge loop, turning on Edge Constraints, and moving it.… -
Re: How do you accurately calculate eularAngles to avoid flipped orientation?
As it turns out... my workaround failed if the brush stroke uses rotations and/or scattering. So a full math solution is in order. I've started reading the linear algebra book you linked to... but I'm not sure I'll have time to study a lot at the moment (my elderly father is moving in with us tonight... ) . But I'll try.… -
Re: [Maya] How can I make a smooth curve ?
Deform isn't a tool, it's a sub-menu at the top of the application. Make sure you're in the modeling mode (top left) then look for the deform drop down menu at the top, then non linear, then bend.… -
Re: Rendering problems, vray, help
Not quite what I was asking about. I meant the mode Maya is reading your files in as far as color space/gamma is concerned. Since your render is washed out you may need to switch to raw, linear or an alternate gamma mode on your file nodes. I could also be wrong, like I said just a shot in the dark. -
Re: 1rst post continued
That older model/texture looks kind of cool. I think the new one is a bit too linear in the arrangement of loops. I'd try to see if you can get them to flow a little more dynamically and you'll be able to get more definition at the current triangle count, or you can optimize some of those edges out and keep the current…
