Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Thanks Kees! The area light is made using a spot light because its the only light that has a rotate-able light view prj. So I can create an area by offsetting its position left and right, up and down with a transposed light view prj. None of the other lights rotate the projection on the z axis. As I control the bias inside… -

We have a pretty decent UI implemented thus far but we are now diving into the actual game play mechanics of it… -
Re: n/a
Surface types are usually assigned to mat IDs that are physicalized. Most meshes assigned that matID will be physics proxy meshes or render meshes that are going to be their own physics proxy and don't have a separate one, ie again physicalized. So you may end up with 3 proxy sub mats. Be aware that while you can… -
Re: Student texture artist learning thread

I hope you can at least model well or you need to seriously evaluate… -
Re: Sketchbook: Martin "VertexBee" Punchev
Here are few quick sketches of weird looking creatures that are supposed to be non-typical dragon designs. I started them from the thumbnails that I've posted not so long ago. This guy came from thumbnail number 9. Except the wings it doesn't feel very dragonish, but anyway, I had lots of fun sketching it out: OMG, what is… -
