Zbursh - just trying to make a displacement map!!
I've imported an OBJ object into Zbrush (pre UV unwrapped) and I understand now that OBJ files don't transfer UV's to Zbrush?

We Got Tired of “Final” Renders Breaking — So We Built a Gate Instead

Best way to light this scene?
Hey guys, I'm working on a top-down game set in space. I'm not sure how to handle the lighting for my level (here). I have a flat playspace area, distant objects below and huge background objects. So far, I have a directional light for the sun light, set as movable and a skylight. From what I've read, this light should be… -
Re: did anyone just watch Gameswipe?

What is the best shader to use in Maya for PBR materials?

Is this a good shader to be using in Maya, or should I be using a different shader, or does it not matter? Any feedback on this… -
Have anyone figured out how new Curvature Smooth node works in Designer?
So far I find it best for doing various edge masks just on top of a final normal map . Tried to make it work in Painter but as always it's weird and never same , works only on square textures i.e a dead end. Want to recreate it for Blender shader editor. I see it sort of shift iteratively in x and y positive and negative…
