Re: TOZ-120 Shotgun
I've been tweaking the texture today, but I'm not sure if I'm improving it by much. I've uploaded a quick turntable to youtube and the spec/gloss/diffuse maps, which might make critiquing easier? [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-86XCaw6zKk"]TOZ 120 yt - YouTube[/ame] Perhaps my spec is too noisy? Either way, I've… -
Re: Rusted Car
Is your rust on a separate layer in Photoshop? if so, it should be easy to lower the spec relative to the paint, and generate a normal map - both these things will really help sell it I think :) what I like to do is have a base layer of rust in my photoshop file, and mask it out accordingly using scatter brushes and shapes… -
Re: Textures, feedback and coffee.
Nope.. Colored specular fresenel is almost always reserved for metallic materials. Most materials that's not metallic by nature should use a gray-scale or very very close to gray-scale spec. As for your texture Maximum, you should have the same spec value for both the water and the sand. The water should have a gloss value… -
Re: UDK/Ddo Lighting Problem
Hm, I always thought the way ZacD does. And clearly the way most game-artists do, considering spec is far more commonly used than gloss is. Of course, both is always best, when beauty is your main concern, but yeah, I'd use spec if I had to chose. Your explanations make sense, but if that is the case, why isn't gloss used… -
Re: Texturing practice; SciFi hallway
Current things to fix/do: =Shadows =More rust/scratches on tool box ~get reflection maps working (omit the rust) ~make a spec map ='Corner piece' still has very basic texture =Finish props ~wires ~computer monitor ~hinge for door ~texture for door ~several other things that don't really need mentioning =The texture on the… -
Re: Geat Warrior
Posting some texture wips, lemme know what you think. Found this site about killzones nextgen specs: http://www.gamespot.com/forums/system-wars-314159282/tech-specs-of-killzone-sf-and-crysis-3-character-m-29419004/ Still got the head and hands to convert into lowpoly but my full character will be about 40k triangles. Feel… -
Re: a dirty ol' vending machine
A few things: The spec map is totally off, why would the pepsi logo and other text show up differently? You may need to ditch this one and have a look at some other spec maps for reference, as its not just a grey scale of your diffuse. Your local is currently doing nothing to add to the piece, so granted you may not want… -
Re: Art Deco Streamliner Train
Thanks for the comments and feedback. The desk model in your portfolio was a piece of my reference pile lchll3d :) I'm looking to create a clean, fairly new and maintained scene. Trickier than defaulting to grunge to add interest. As for the gloss map could not agree more, at the moment I'm using a diffuse, spec and… -
Re: Unity 5 & Marmoset
Yeah, there's no real need for Skyshop lighting or it's shaders any more with Unity 5, I'd suggest moving over to unity's own. So far as that thread, um, it seems that the unity 5 picture is correct and it's the 4x one that has issues, but why would you be using the legacy bump/spec shader anyway? The Standard shader is… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Jonathan Armstrong
yea, i agree. making a diffuse map and then passing it through crazy bump to get spec and normal is not the way to do it. it will give you a horrible spec map because its just a program, it doesnt know what needs to be shiny and what doesnt. and for normal maps, you should use a highpoly model to project onto the lowpoly…
