Re: Set Material Slot to Button based on edit text box
Using edit text boxes is a bad idea. they are for string values and you will need to cast them to integers(convert them) to use their values. the thing is you can input what you want into an edit text field and its not allways going to be castable to an int. so say your text is '100' x = "100" as integer returns: 100 now… -
Re: In-progress: DDO Stretches my non-square maps
In that kind of situation I usually create a square texture to avoid some troubles in future. In recent project a have rectangular texture 4096x2048. So i just created a 4k texture to work with and just splited it in half to know my work area. When it will be exported in engine I'll just cut it to 4k x 2k with canvas size… -
Re: Gamedesign Hollywood
Most of the time, the people calling the shots aren't artists. Though they may have advisers, or collaborate with art directors, they are still the ones calling the shots. Most of what you see in games and movies, you're seeing because a marketing team has done the math and knows that x, y and z will sell "x" amount of… -
Re: ObjectSpace NormalMaps - What is the Neutral Color ? And Normalization ?
Maybe you didn't understand the point, the objective is not to write (2*a)-1 as (a-0.5) * 2 which is exactly the same but cost more on the gpu. Indeed simplyfying the matter: a = tex2D() The monomial (a - 1/2) * 2 = 2a - 1 is equivalent. x)(2*a) - 1.0 costs 5 cycles on SGX540 y)(a - 0.5)* 2.0 costs 6 cycles on SGX540 z) a… -
Re: Company Acquisition
It is not unreasonable to do a survey online! LOL! People do this all the time. What is your favorite SNES game. When somebody says "I really love X because of its gameplay AND art" do you simply respond "game X is for fucking idiots". Jesus H christ. I don't come to forums to not get opinions. But I also don't come here… -
Re: Making holes and centering items correctly
I'm not familiar with whatever program you're using, but one approach is to set the objects origin to the grid center (where x and y meet), and then to center the object over to that origin. If it's like Blender 1. Set object's origin to grid center 2. set object to move to origin 3. Transpose/move object in grid snapping… -
Re: [Done] Lost in space - Scifi Environment (Critique welcome)
I need help! I'm grappling with an really weird Normal Problem by exporting from SP2 to UE4. I really don't know why, but on some faces are getting shadet with an weird "X" normal problem. SP2: No Problems UE4: Problems SP2 Normal Problemspots: For testing I've baked also with knald... I'm getting nearly the same issues:… -
Re: Maya 2016 Python: Moving frozen objects to 0,0,0 to export them.
I do it same way Haiddasalami mentions. Check out the Pivot section under the transform node(not the shape that is). It retains the original values in the rotation/scale pivots. There are other hacky ways to do it, but this one I find to be the easiest and cleanest. If for some reason you would have 0,0,0 rotate/scale… -
Re: DOM WAR IV 'Team Spirit' thread!
yea ive had a few friends give up cuz they saw their thread drop to the bottom of the page, then to page 2 and 3 if nobody is interested, you dont feel like being a part of it. in all honesty, i think the "woah cool model" response helps - if its the truth, then why not say it? - but it should _almost_ always be coupled…
