Is it possible to get a good bake without support loops?
Hi everyone, Let me present a very simple practical example, Modeled in 3ds Max 2025 and baked in Substance Painter 11.

Re: explain it to me like I am 5, what is a floating point render engine
Disclaimer: While I'm a programmer, I haven't written a "proper" render engine. Some of what I say is from my own experience, and therefore may be less than 100% true. With that said...

Re: 1900's Western Fields
Okay so I got some cameras setup and some renders with lighting only. Now I'm preparing to add detail if these renders look okay. I can see how setting up cameras help it easier to composition. (Image heavy sorry) -
Re: Baking Problem in SP (Modelled in Max)
