Re: Quixel SUITE - News
@yeluis - AlbedoM is an Albedo specific to the metalness workflow. It contains both diffuse albedo (for non-metals) and specular albedo (for metals). Wherever the metalness map is painted white it picks the specular albedo from the AlbedoM map. The diffuse albedo for metals is automatically made black in the shader. A… -
Re: Guardian Beast
Adrian, for future reference, most forums have support for BBcode. To put in an image, it's usually . As far as AO and CA is concerned; I usually look at things like that in terms of hierarchy: Cavity is local, whereas AO is more global. Therefore, I consider AO to be higher in the hierarchy. So I usually start with the CA… -
Re: Is Photosourcing a bad word?
Yeah, I'd imagine that the unspoken part of calling something out as photo-sourced is that it's "obviously" photo-sourced. There are almost never hard rules for how to make good looking art. That being said photo-sourced texturing alone is a bit of an anemic skill set for creating materials. And its totally un-suited to… -
Re: poulan 245a chainsaw
hey man, diffuse looks nice! I think you need to spend a little more time, and include some of the diffuse detail into the normals - which by are extremely clean compared to the diffuse. You could add those paint chips and rust marks in there as subtle recessed areas, as well as adding the slight metal grain to the entire… -
Re: Introducing Knald - Open Beta!
@ metalliandy : At the moment your are able to load an diffuse-map into the 3dviewer but you only can look at the diffuse map when you select [lighting] from the menu. there is no way to judge the diffuse with applied occlusion, convexity and cavity and tweak those maps to immediatly see the changes on your model. So… -
Re: UE 3 - Shader
Version 2 New fresnel type, the falloff scale can now be changed and using the mask from the green channel (reflection mask) of the Base MSG texture the fresnel can be masked out. That mask can also be blended, so that fresnel will still show on the rest of the model even if the reflection mask is pure black and white. Use… -
Re: Modo201 painting and baking!
Hey all. I just gave the first 3 videos a second look and noticed something. During the second one (detail paint 01), when the guy starts painting, he first paints diffuse info (scaley leather bag style) that he picks from a texture he loads. Later on he turns on the bump, mich makes the material much more believable. BUT,… -
Re: What is the best way to regenerate a background layer in photoshop?
I'd kill for someone to write me an extensible photoshop script that would work along the lines of what we had at my old job. Any layer named DIFFUSE (case sensitive) would automatically be saved as NAME_diffuse.dds, where NAME comes from the group that DIFFUSE is a member of (it throws an error if its not in a group). You… -
Re: SC2 Hydralisk
Thanks motenai I watch the preview of your video and it seems that I am misunderstanding what "hand painted" texturing is. I'm actually using AO, Normal Map and cavity to help me paint my texture and even photography. But I'm painting most of my texture and use these map and picture to improve the overall result.… -
Re: I make a door WIP
I'm not sure the new diffuse is taking steps in the right direction. - The first diffuse is pretty good, the gold could be desaturated. But its the best out of the three. - The second Looks like an attempt to add color using solid colors & paint bucket fill. The last: Each piece seems a bit monochromatic and overly…
