Re: Nexam's cavern - Join my 3D journey to Blizzard...
i asked on discord, but i'm afraid my question got lost :) Several time i run into this, time to fix it ! I want to make some kind of necklace, or a strap... something like this. What i did so far was to mask pen the area, extract and go on. It's working, but i've got to do a lot a clean up on the surface and the edge to… -
Can't get correct edge wear with Quixel ddo
Hi I've been trying to use quixel ddo to generate some edge wear maps but I'm not getting a decent result. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, I already watched some tutorials but still can't figure this out. When I apply a material preset, for instance some metal with worn edges, all the generated maps are completly off… -
Re: 17th Century French Flintlock Pistol
@dzibarik The floral relief pattern is the only photo-derived part of the gun. I dropped into the Royal Armouries while visiting Leeds a few months ago, and seized the opportunity to get some nice photo-reference. I began by extracting a single diamond shape (containing a subset of flowers) from the photograph and used… -
Re: Anybody here from the old Milkshape 3D forums ('97-'01) ?
I started with Milkshape back then too! The site is still accessible (except for the forum). Is the project still active for the author? Perhaps one could ask if he would make the source code publicly available? -
Re: UV layout
It depends entirely on how close the camera gets (kinda like VFX, I suppose), but assuming its AAA quality third person you might have 2-3 4K texture sets (*super ball-park guesstimate, I am not a character artist), with multiple layered tiling textures on top that are blended with mask textures which give you the super… -
Re: Advice with secondary forms
Not Tldr; Explaining what i once did, polygroup/muscle group dynamesh method: Just tossing in an idea i had to one day use cause i wanted things to look "amazing", when it comes to musculature. It might be a bit "long" process at least for me but. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpT31z6LErs (video explains extracting the… -
Substance Designer - Multiple Inputs on a Tile Generator?
Hi! I'm currently working on a white tiles texture, and trying to do a cement texture below that, to show whenever a tile is removed by a mask. I'm trying to make some "left-over plaster shapes" below each of the tiles, but also trying to randomize the shapes so not every tile has the same 'left-over' below. I achieved… -
Re: Obelisk
sculpt is nice, but The texturing is noisy and very generic all over, as if you just threw masks/color on to everything to act the same. I would make the edges lighter then the planar faces. Add a small gradient from bottom to top and also make sure that the faces that are faced more toward the sun, is more bleached. So… -
Re: Technical solutions for dealing with in-game roads
There is a tutorial about using UDK and vertex painting, which is pretty nice and shows how to use vertex paint to bland different materials. Maybe that might be an idea, create a mask image (which doesn't have to be high resolution, since its just a black and white "alpha"), an asphalt material and a stripe material, and… -
Re: 115 Madison Avenue in the Style of "The Division"
While I've been porting everything over to the new grid I experimented with vert painting some more. Please let me know if my thinking is on the right track: >You probably want your topology to be even (unless you're trying to use edge length for a specific effect) >If you're using a mask, you don't want your topology to…
