Re: Shader trouble.
ok so I pinched code from here: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=96874 Shader "Custom/test" { Properties { _MainTex ("Texture", 2D) = "white" {} _roughness ("roughness", Float) = 15 } SubShader { Tags { "RenderType" = "Opaque" } CGPROGRAM #pragma surface surf GIR_SPEC #pragma target 3.0 float… -
Re: Next gen Scene Ideas/help
Shouldn't this be in P&P since its kind of a WIP thread? Anywho awesome idea combining Enviro art with Character art. It fits into the less clicks portfolio approach. You said you wanted the focal point to be the characters so I think the "stage" should be well done, but nothing too flashy. I would go for a dirty… -
Tablet PC: Versa LitePad review
Ok, I bit the bullet and bought a tablet pc. I have a 6x8 intuos 2 platinum at home, with dual sgi 1600sw lcd monitors, and a 9x12 intuos 2 at work with plain jane 21" crt. I prefer my tablet pc over both setups. I got the NEC Versa Litepad. It is 2.2 lbs, and .6" thick. Thats roughly the size of a 70 page spiral bound… -
UV's in Max 2010 and terrain in-fill
Hi everyone, I'm working on a project for fun. The gfx engine is not so bad but to really optimise it's doing a lot by hand. It's a free driving sim/game: http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/forums/racer.117/ Anyhow, I'm currently building the rolling moor land that the driving course runs through, so you can see up to 10… -

Re: Color Calibration: Your Monitor and you
I'm not going to pretend to sound like an expert since I'm pretty new to this stuff myself, but my limited understanding of it is that luminance seems to be very much related to "brightness". The problem is that brightness on your monitor, say if you use your monitor's options and set it to "90" - that isn't going to be… -
Re: Normal Map Issues
TLDR; Normal maps are limited in what they can do by their bitrate :) As you said, when you're using tangent space normals, it alters each vertex's normal by adding onto the model's vertex normals, so because OP split the vertex normals, the normal map is the limit to how well the split can be covered up. The normal maps… -

Re: Unity Shader(Normal Rim light)
Hey Snader Thanks That is what I wanted but I think I kinda figure out Why it wasnt working.

So originally… -
