I think the problem is caused by white background in normal map, probably caused by alpha. Those white stripes on dilated edges give those shading problems, 127 127 255 color background may fix this.
Hey thanks for bringing this thread back I had forgotten about it. I did a lot of research and found answers to my question, but forgot to post back here. So first, Beddall, yes we had that same problem at work with the overlay method you are talking about. There is a fix for it, but I don't know what it is. One of our…
Is your normal map being gamma corrected (it shouldn't be)? If it is being gamma corrected then it will be unnormalized and you'll hit these issues. What happens when you fill the entirety of the normal map with 127/127/255? is that what is happening in the first image? If so, that sounds like an issue with gamma…
I decided to start with my hero asset so I can use it as a kind of quality bar. This model had me more focused on topology with a lot of surprise ngons or pinching issues. My polycount is at 13k when smoothed and combined though that's without the final details of the scroll and the violin strings. Also need to replace the…
I'm wondering if there's any sort of advantage using Marmoset versus 3Do from the Quixel suite. I'm thinking of purchasing the Quixel suite for ~130 usd, which comes with nDO, 3Do, dDo, and a Megascans starter. Whereas with Marmoset, you only get Marmoset for ~130 usd. Is there any advantage to going for Marmoset? Or…
Hi! I'm trying to find a way to blend meshes that share the same material. I found this method, but I'm trying to avoid it because it seems like too much extra work https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/011/332/037/original/raul-aparicio-skirtsample-anim.gif?1529020963 Is there a way to do it like this?…
Not as far as I'm aware, however you can just do it manually by changing the URL, For example: ...showthread.php?t=47465&page=132 Takes you to page 132, obviously. ...showthread.php?t=47465&page=24 And that'll take you to page 24, so just change that value when you're on a thread and it should work fine.
I see these: "need stability financially and in terms of lifestyle" and "I know that I'm not prepared to move from state to state every few years for the sake of work. Nor am I willing to stomach months of unemployment" And I immediately think that, unfortunately, games may not be the best thing for you at this point in…
$180 for a case you've got to be insane. People always brag about cases and airflow and cable systems. I've used $150 cases and i've used $30 cases, there is very little practical difference in quality unless you're overclocking to 16ghz(airflow issues etc) or if you open your case and mess with it every day(build…
