Re: Baking Complex Objects Without Exploding
Well, first of all, are you going to show your model in real-time or offline, and in which software? If you're using Maya, then baking in Maya is the solution since the Normal map baking process is very much homogenized to perfection. Baking your normals from xNormal won't work since you will get seams, since xNormal and… -
Re: Need help with Xmas present
Well, I agree that making the two top flowers darker would help to separate the flowers. But is there a way to do it without having to redraw them? It's not quite as easy as making a new layer in photoshop, filling the selection with black and changin the settings. The only way I can think of would be to sorta "shift the… -

When making a scene in UE4, how much decals is too much decals?
I've been doing some research on deffered decals recently and also learning how to use them along the way.
