Re: Every baked map ok except normal
I didn't download your files but im guessing there isn't anything in the high res for the bake to capture as normals. Are there rounded edges or surface details that would be picked up a new normal on the normal map? Intruding faces along the normal will not result in any new normals from the perspective of the bake. -
Weird Normals
Hello people I am working on this asset and getting these weird normals on my asset. I have tried Flip Normals in polygon mode, tried Normal modifier, tried Reset Xform, then converting to editable mesh then editable poly. But still the same. Some parts of the asset got fixed some are still stubborn. What am I missing… -
Re: Normal Map everything?
If the object is perfectly smooth, it generally will not need a normal map. If an object has surface variation of any sort, a normal map is desirable. Something like a crate will generally have wood grain, knots, chips, nails or screws, and various other surface details that would benefit from a normal map. Whether you… -
Re: Product Viz - normal shading problem
Your flat normal value tests are wrong. Normals are in 1,-1 range so the vector should be 0,0,1 to represent flat normals. Would you mind opening up the normal map texture inside unreal engine and showing a screenshot from it and from its settings? Its probably just some checkbox or compression setting needed to be set… -
Normal maps
Found out this week in my advanced modeling class that I have been going about creating normal maps all wrong. It was recommended that I create a grayscale bit map first then use that in my normal map generator. Does anyone have any tips or tutorials on how to create good grayscale bit maps to use to make my normal maps… -
Re: Maya 2017 how to turn on visibility of normals?
Select the object you wish to display the normals on. Go to Display -> Polygons -> Face Normals/Vertex Normals What this is actually doing under the hood is changing your "Mesh component display" attributes on your model. Go to your model's Shape node, go to Mesh Component Display and you'll see "Display Normals" and the… -
Re: Normals/Smoothing Group problem
When you say "looks good in Maya", do you mean in the viewport? or in a actual render? The normals need to look good in the viewport and even then the tangent basis will be different for Maya and Marmoset so you will never get the exact same result. It looks like you're having some issues with your normal map where it's… -
Re: normal map issues in maya
You're using a Tangent Space normal map. This type of map is very versatile. It's easy to edit, and you can apply the same map to a variety of different geometric shapes, so it's perfect for floors, walls, terrain meshes, etc. Alas, tangent space maps are prone to this sort of trouble, because different programs and… -
Face Normals Issue
So I'm currently working on a tank and have mirrored certain parts for the purpose of symmetry. I'm almost done with the UV's and wanted to test them in Substance Painter upon which I found the normals where inverted on the mirrored parts. I went back to Maya and Reversed them and re-imported and now the normals are okay… -
Visible normal map seams in 3DS Max's viewport
Hi, I decided to move to Autodesk's 3DS Max to start rigging my character, from Blender. Just because it's the industry standard and they teach to use it in our school. Anyway, setting the textures up in Max are giving me problems. Especially very visible seams appear on my normal maps everywhere where there's an UV seam.…
