Re: [CE] Beach diorama
Was sick of the lame beach texture so I made one now. It's blended between two textures, one pebbles texture I sculpted and the other is just flat sand. Used vertex colors to darken the sand around the shoreline. I realize the concept pic is mostly just flat sand so I'm probably toning it down, I just used a quick and… -
Re: Best way to unwrap environment
Shouldn't this be in the Technical Talk forum? If you're just going to use solid colors throughout then wouldn't it be better to just create a material for each color and just have a non-overlapping uv-set for the lightmap, if you're going to have any. I find it hard to see though how you could run out of space for single… -
Re: A scene from Legend of Sealed Book----UDK
Thank you very much d1ever:) Leave sky and floor quite flat is the original concept and my idea from Chinese painting (Liu bai) you can see there is always blending sky ,floor and no clouds in most Chinese landcape painting,reason have 2( from my point of view) sometime less mean more by your immaginnation ,second, lots of… -
Re: exporting alpha maps in a diffuse texture
Basically yes. But for the window/wall example, you generally use a different material for anything with alpha blending, so the window would be a separate material from the wall, and the wall would never have a rendering problem. The biggest reason to do it this way is for faster rendering... alpha blending is (relatively)… -
Re: "next-gen" eyes
John: The way I implement that AO curtain use it in The Secret World (even Rango & FarCry 2), I applied them into a 'multiplicative blend mode', that way it's not sorting at all, or requires any Z-buffering or lighting. Also you can colour it reddish-brown so it multiplies more of a fleshier colour. Similarly with the… -
Re: n/a
Actually, the Dirt Layer feature is obsolete and was replaced by the Blend Layer. http://freesdk.crydev.net/display/SDKDOC2/Blend+Layer Diffuse color is changing the appearance of all geometry using an affected material and you will need two materials applied to separate parts of the mesh or two meshes if you want to… -
Re: Sketchbook: Giles Ruscoe
You need to define your planes, man! Try askhat's exercise here, and then apply the same thing to a painting: Pick THREE shades, or four if you really want, and paint ONLY with them, no blending or hatching. You'd be surprised how convincing of images you can make, and it will teach you a ton to bring to the table when you… -
Re: Realistic Tropical Island - Aztlan -
Ah you mean the transitions between a texture custom and the other that doessn'0t blend so well like the crysis ones? I have managed to blend my custom textures better by working them really " A LOT " in the tuning the similar tone color of the texture among imilars like sands and then work a lot on the colors and the… -
Re: Q3 skin problem...
http://www.bpeers.com/software/q3ase/ There is a free program for editing Quake 3 Shaders. You will need to learn how to use shaders if you want to make a fire effect like Gorre has. Basically it's simple code which points to some images and tells the game how to blend the textures. There are tutorials on that site I just… -
Re: The "ultimate trim" technique from Sunset Overdrive
Yes, especially if being mipped down (high quality mode = 2k trim texture, low quality mode for lower end machines = 512) there should be quite a lot of padding to prevent bleeding on lower resolutions
