Re: AI Art, Good or Bad? A (hopefully) nuanced take on the subject.
Hi there @d1ver ! "I want to see artists making 100 creative decisions a day instead of 5. I want to see them talk about and develop their taste all day, expand their visual libraries, and spend their time thinking about the projects that inspire them, the stories they want to tell — not the latest UV tricks or Blender… -
Re: multiple collision meshes
i wish the epic devs were still active on their forums there. anybody who worked on fortnite would probably be able to give a good answer since that sounds closer to what you are doing. recently one of the community staff mentioned at least that they were considering getting some devs more involved with the forums because… -
Re: Grass Normals Issue
I really appreciate your help! Still having some issues though. Made those changes. Also for the foliage, I'm trying to go for a style similar to what's used in Fortnite. Still gotta make several foliage variations, but I just want to get the shading right first. I'm also gonna have to recolour the foliage as well to match… -
Re: What is your dream studio/job?
My dream job fluctuates yearly depending on the company. Despite that, Epic has always been on the top for me. 2 years ago they were in "hibernation" mode, with barely a peep. Then suddenly UE4 and Fortnite. The ability to shift into this new direction is extremely exciting. On top of working on amazing products, they… -
Re: next Gen + hand painted possible?
Take a look at Blizzard's Overwatch, Valve's Dota 2, and Epic's Fortnite. You can also read documentation on the Dota 2 hero shader here, which isn't strictly PBR but does let you define a wide variety of materials reasonably accurately. Most of these games are using sculpting as well as painting in some capacity, just… -
Re: XCOM 2
There's been a fair few given how long we've been in the 'current gen'. I can think of Daylight, Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Tekken 7, Hatred, Ether One, Pneuma and Storm United off the top of my head. There are five or six games at least in early access or closed beta at the moment (e.g. Alone in the Dark, Fortnite,… -
Re: Question on a Character with Armour
Games like PUBG probably just have the clothes over the naked body with nothing being turned off. It's not a pretty way to do it but you can get a lot of customization that way. I prefer something like Fortnite where the whole character swaps out. You can get far better silhouette breaking outfits and interesting… -
Re: Using trim sheets with alpha floaters and blending with tiling materials?
Since epic is not using decal on fortnite, the decal shader is not the best it could be kekw. There is a thread about this problem here: https://polycount.com/discussion/202328/expanding-dbuffer-decals/p1 One work around would be to use 2 uv channels, but you would have to cut the ''decals'' into the mesh instead of having… -
Re: Stylized Grass Material (Feedback are welcome)
Also, check out screenshots of Fortnite. Maybe that's not the exact style you meant to go for, but I think that hyper-colorful, high contrast look is kind of the thing you should lean more towards with stylized materials like this. Of course the important thing really is integrating the material into the rest of the game,… -
Re: Sketchbook: Renan Fabricio
