Re: Where can I edit multiple PBR textures at same time?
There is no software where you could do it easy and simple. If you mean re-compositing textures by moving something. Substance painter - easy working with multiple channels at once but you can't move anything precisely say 32 pixels right . But if you do it in twice of target resolution it still could be a choice. I am… -
[UDK] Roman Street
Hey guys, This is my first post here :) A quick bit of background: I did a BA in Games design, but then recently decided I'd like to do Archaeology, as that's always been my other passion - Long story short, I finished my archaeology degree, and there are few jobs in either field :poly124: So I'm trying to update my games… -
UDK Lightmass Lightmap affected by vertex normals?
Hi, Polycount. :poly121: I've got the following problem with Lightmass and Lightmaps: As you can see, there is a nasty black gradient in the 2 corners of the fusebox. The problem presents itself when the light is not directly in front of the asset. The more severe the angle - the worse it gets. This gradient always appears… -

UV Unwrapping - Discussion & Possible Workflow Improvements (Hard Surface Focus)
I'm curious how long does it take for other artists to uniquely (no overlaps or mirroring) unwrap and pack the UVs of complex hard surface objects, say for example : . That is a personal example, and took about 6-7 hours for just unwrapping each object. As you can see it is not even packed efficiently or at a even texel… -

Re: Uv questions
Vig's got some good answers. To be fair to you, I personally think building modularity is quite a complex subject to tackle. Especially because there are so many ways to do it. So don't feel bad about asking questions. It's a great way to learn! Look for your building specs and texture sizes and then create it the way YOU… -
Re: How can Polycount help?
GhostD - I am not quite sure what else there is to say about the channels/masks really ... the Valve doc covers pretty much anything, doesn't it ? What is there specifically that you find to be missing ? On the subject of how Polycount could help, I agree with the general theme expressed in many posts already : exposure.… -
Re: LoDs: From how many tris does it make sense?
I guess, I'm trying to answer your questions, you asked them, I gave you technical information as a GFX programmer, and I have done the tests and I'm just trying to keep you educated to what I know and understand what that thing is saying. Correct. You batched them together AND are drawing the same amount of vertices. So… -
Re: Dungeon Door WIP
Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback! I still haven't had a chance to make the spec map. I spent this morning trying to redo the normal map to optimize the mesh and fighting with the AO map. The horizontal beam on the door has some AO that was rendered in max, the rest of the AO was made from the normal map. Ignore the…
