Re: Normal Map - Smoothing groups / beveling edges
For baking I use xNormal, target engine is UE4 and tangent calculator is ofc mikk tspace and in plugin have checked compute binormals in shader and waviness on 3 and 4 case is because I have 1 smoothing group for entire mesh. and I dont have there any support edge loop or beveled edge on LP for reduce angle of raycasting.… -
Re: [UE4] MP 40
Hmm, the texture needs some work, there needs to be a lot more differences in the roughness, it dosnt read well and there is no big scale detail only small scale noise. Try getting some edge definition out and play with roughness, you cannot skip the photoshop painting part Im also not really impressed by the first person… -
Re: Ysalex Anatomy Practice Thread (nsfw)
If you have zbrush R4, there's a new feature that allows you to record based on your undos. I've been trying it out recently. I just open up zbrush and start sculpting. When I'm done, I turn my undo queue into a movie. And if you save your project as a .ZPR then it keeps your undo queue, so it's still there when you open… -
Re: Female - Nude.
This is definitely a good start. A couple critiques: from the front view shorten her shoulders a bit, not too much, from the side view you have 2 options: narrow out her shoulder a bit or have that volume pan out through her triceps. Her breast are lacking the general shapes that makes breast recognizable. From the side… -
Re: Material definition in Zbrush and weird shadows on normal map
If I were sculpting a barrel, I would first create a base in Max/Maya the same way a real barrel would be constructed: separate pieces for each wood strip and metal rings. It will help separate the materials and make the gaps between the wood more believable. Without seeing your UVs or smoothing splits, I would say you… -
Re: Sketchbook: anglorum
Wow! Thanks Alismuffin! Hopefully I can, just gotta persevere. Today's was a bit challenging. I picked an item with a similar material (a shiny black plastic) but this time the straight edges proved difficult to master. [External Hard Drive. Time: 45 minutes] I'm not sure what was giving me the trouble. I think I'm going… -
Re: What It's Like To Be A Woman Making Video Games
The last time i visited a studio i was surprised, almost a 40% of the workers were women. that without counting the other women that generally works in the administrative/H.R. departments. Things are not like they paint it there. There are plenty of studios full of ladies :) . It's not good to generalize... btw it's… -
Re: DOTA 2 Character Rig Dump
I fixed that, forgot to remove the reference, if you download the link now it will be the updated version of that. I do these quick too, I did the earthshaker in about 45 minutes last night, and Im finishing up a darkseer and centaur warrunner now. I plan on doing this for every character in the game. Also, another thing… -
Re: Sketchbook: Martin "VertexBee" Punchev
@OXGears, glad you find it useful. I like to share bits and pieces of useful info from time to time (got so many stacked postnotes with ideas for small tutorials and things I want to share with the community...not groundbreaking, just ordinary practices, but probably useful to some people...Anyway, hope I can get some free… -
Re: Is it just me or is Autodesk putting 3DS Max aside?
4 year old video, but 45 min to model, texture and render a potted plant that is quick and easy to revise and expand on. It wasn't shown in the video(not the best procedural modeling techniques on display) but parameters can be bound to a viewport handle, allowing procedural models to be manipulated in the 3d viewport,…
