Techniques for trim textures
I've noticed that most people that create modular pieces end up using a trim texture sheet. Something like this: Or this: I have a few questions about this workflow since i'm learning and trying to create my first modular kit: * A lot of people use NDO for this. How is it possible to make good bevels with it? Just a vector… -
Shadows On Tiling Static Meshes
I'm currently working on blocking out a level in UDK using modular pieces, and I'm having horrible issues with the shadows. Is there any way to get smoother shadowing across meshes? I know that the way I have the wall built right now isn't exactly optimal, but it's only an initial blockout with placeholder meshes. The… -
Instancing environment pieces with linked/additional objects.
Hey guys, I was wondering what methods do you guys use to quickly swap out modular pieces in Max environments, that have additional objects linked to a wall. For example a brick wall piece which has a cut open window which is one material, then wooden shutters which is a separate object with another material. So if you… -

[UE4] Yes...Another Corridor..
I've never actually done one of these though. I think everyone has to have done at least one right? :D Anyways, I managed to scoop up Substance Designer during the summer sale and decided to give it a test run with a new environment for my portfolio. COMPLETE:… -
Re: How to take stone walls to the next level? Adding geometry to assets that are usually flat?
This is kind of last-gen, but should give you some ideas about how far you can take modular assets. Dig further back in the thread to find the modular bits. https://polycount.com/discussion/comment/1650367/#Comment_1650367 Gears of War info is here, just search the page for Kevin Johnstone:…
