Creating a rim light and saturation shader in Maya trouble
Hey, I'm trying to tweak a style study I'm doing on Super Mario Galaxy As you can see my Rim lighting shader is just tending to white and I have no idea what nodes to use to make it apply to the saturation as well. In the image I'm using a SamplerInfo.facingRatio > Ramp.VCoord and the ramp into the lambert's incandencanse.… -

Re: Speed of Light Barrier Broken ?
Might be a stupid question but if they were traveling quicker than the speed of light how can they see where they are going?... I mean surely to travel so quick in such a meaningful distance wouldn't you need to be able to predict placements of objects "in the future" else you'll end up warp driving yourself into a rock.… -
Re: How to setup UE4 lighting to be kinda like Marmoset?
You'll likely need to look into using Skylights with a Directional Light, perhaps check out the HDRI Lighting Example scene that comes with the Starter Assets. However, it's never going to be exactly the same as Marmoset and Substance, because their rendering pipelines are completely different. -

Re: How would the lighting for this be baked?
Epic has a guide for unwrapping for lightmaps in their documentation. To answer your question yes, if you plan to export this as a single mesh you will need to crank up the lightmap resolution. I don't think 8k would be necessary, since lightmaps only hold lighting information they don't need to be as high resolution as… -
