I've resurrected an older model of mine and wanted to update it by moving the model into UE4 to avail of PBR. I also desired to use the model as a test case for learning the Substance Suite of tools. Since starting to update the model I've pretty much rebuilt the majority of it and have been adding additional details and…
My PS is crashing on simple shit. Turned off the accelerated goodness, updated nVidia drivers. Thought it was a bad version, downgraded drivers (after using a tool to clean them all out). Got off the phone with Adobe who said "Oh, just do the update, will clear it up..". Just did the update and it still happens! Went and…
Hi! I am combining bark and leaves texture in a single atlas to reduce draw calls. I am having trouble finding out how to increase size of the tree trunk compared to leaves in the final atlas texture, basically change size ratios between trunk and leaves. If I use export mesh and VFX setup tree trunk takes too little space…
Thanks @infectedfury I've made adjustments to the water now, hopefully it's better :) Updated Ocean Shader & More Clean Up. Here's another polish update... My internet's unfortunately just gone out at home so I wasn't able to post an update last night from my home workstation... I have had the worst experiences with…
My SD graphs are usually pretty heavy and combining multiple materials constructed of hundreds nodes of dozens sub-grapfs is hefty to load/update etc. So I sometimes just render outputs of each material to 16bit tiffs and then combine/compose/ height blend/mix them in a Photoshop file as linked smart objects. Alt+drop in…
Yes it worked just fine for a long time. I believe it happened when I did the latest PS CC update. I didn't use the suite until about 4 days after I updated so I can't say for sure, but that seems like a logical explanation. PS says 2014.2.2 Release for a version if that matters. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling both PS…
Sorry for the long space between updates. Work has been busy and my wife and I are preparing for a move so I haven't had as much time to spend on this as I'd like. Oh, and also Diablo 3. So, I'm going to post some updates, but I won't have a huge write up this week since most of what i am currently doing is following the…
If your Intuos 4 works without any issues, then I'd say it may well be a hardware issue. So far as I know the drivers & relevant services were sort of updated across the board sometime after the Intuos 4 came out (that pressure curve tool I was talking about got updated on account of updated config files, or something like…
-ToQuad (as the classic Quadrangulate of Maya) doesn't work on nGons, this is why you need to perform a triangulation before. -TglNorm simply display the normal on your object, you can use the field just below the button to change the size of the displayed normals. The previous TglNorm was displaying the normal of a face,…
Awesome suggestions RN! I'll definitely be asking about the varnish. We were already talking about having embossed studs in the metal that have no color and thus have the tin's natural aluminum reactivity to them. Getting the same effect on the black iron would be an awesome addition. The logo itself is fairly locked down…
