Re: Advice with secondary forms
Thank you. And it is bloody hard. Like I just said to someone else on Discord - the imposter syndrome is god-awful and it's worse when you're over-sensitive and an overthinker. And yet, when I've worked on an exercise for a few hours, and it's going nowhere and it looks and feels awful, imposter syndrome kicks in, and yet… -
Re: Pirate Town Set
Dont overdo the postprocessing like you did in the last picture, make it more subtile, shadows and lighting without overly ambitious usage of bloom are the way to go to add depth and moodd to the sceene. I also suggest to use warm colors (I assume you did that for the last one?) Crate are fine, n88tr. Also I suggest that… -
Re: [CE3]Thief FanArt - Asylum Mess Hall
Ok so finally here's the breakdown. If you need more information on it feel free to ask. I of course use here and there some Level, Brightness/Contrast and Hue/Saturation to achieve the final look of the texture but you have the overall process shown on the breakdown. I also sometimes create a copy of the second color… -
Re: Samurai_Viking_Roman Soldier_Character
Hey manilamerc, this is an interesting concept. My suggestion would be to think about what kind of fighter is this guy, meaning is he up close and personal as a melee fighter or is he a bit more ranged with throwing weapons and or bows. The reason I say that is because you need to know what armor to put on this guy. In the… -
Re: PBR Workflow problem
Completely true. It's funny, artists are so used to saying use reference for anatomy, mechanicals or environments but people forget that step when making materials, it's extremely important to be able to breakdown what you're seeing and try to replicate that instead of working off how you 'think' a material looks or reacts… -
Re: TexTools 3.0+
I am working again a little bit on TexTools and am rewrapping at the moment the baking scripts into a more convenient panel: This lets you either store the result to the clipboard, use as material, save it to the disc or simply display it using the frame buffer in max. Its certainly quicker to setup some materials as a… -
3ds max tileable texture seam problem
Here's my experiment: Texture that I'm using: (EYE BLEED WARNING!) https://dl.dropbox.com/u/63166765/TextureSplitTest.jpg I've applied this texture into a divided 4 poly plane: If I want to display one portion of the texture my steps are to break all the poly then snap the vertices to the 4 corners of the map. You can now… -
Texture splatting - Grass
Hello. I'm working in UE4 a personal project: a top-down game. I'm working on terrain materials. I created a tileable grass texture and a displacement map to go with it. I want to splat this texture with a few others. If I use the displacement map as a mask to modulate the linear blending works better than expected (the… -
Re: Josh Lynch Substance Designer Sketchbook
@josh_lynch At work, but I hope this can still illustrate it... But now I wanted to adjust the amount of squares, but at the same size. X and Y amount seem to get me more squares, but takes the scale down with it. So usually if I want more, I'll blend more tile samplers together, and if I want less I can usually get that… -
Re: Campfire Environment - WIP
Hey Guys, I haven't forgotten about this! I don't have any fixed time set aside to work for this - work's picking up again atm, so I'm pretty much working on it as and when, so it's taking longer than I'd like. I'm enjoying it though :) Started experimenting with vertex paint. Managed to get the grass blending with the…
