@Gazu, Not sure which detail you are referring to. As of heightmap itself or texturing? @armagon, I use a slope node to get the rocks, and I use flow and deposition map then as a base to start working on them in Photoshop. My textures are all made out of photos. And thank you. :) @Mant1k0re, Right. Not released yet.…
you could use an "if" node if your engine has one since it has 3 outputs? you'd need one of the states to be exactly equal to though so it would work as a switch rather than a soft blending. what sort of variable is it you want to pass to this part of the network? i've had a quick play with using multiple lerps and come up…
Some very solid base assets here. Bit over saturated and there might be a bit too much contrast in the diffuse, especialy in your darks. This is a common mistake, making single assets look really cool by increasing contrast and bumping up saturation, but if you want the lighting and shadows to look better in the scene,…
"I hit undo around 4 times, mesh didn't come back, said there was nothing more to undo." Then when you hit re-do it says no more re-do, right? I've had this happen on 90% of my models and I have no friggin idea why! Annoying as hell, isn't it? I searched high and low and couldn't find any mention of the problem. Luckily I…
I just bought Sins of a Solar Empire and it's awesome. I didn't have to do any stupid software key and the game runs great. It was the best PC gaming experience I have had in years. The PC game market is still huge compared to when I started playing PC games. I think that if games like WoW and The Sims can come along and…
[ QUOTE ] Not knowing where the monster comes from or any more information REALLY sucks. [/ QUOTE ] No, it is awesome. Clever withholding of information is what makes good scifi and speculative fiction great. The best scifi out there just hints at the existence of vast universes, but you only get a glimpse. The few things…
I recently had to make the same decision, I went for Professional over Home Premium for a few reasons. I'm not a Windows expert (was a Mac user for 5 years prior to switching earlier this year), so there may be workarounds to some of these points? Firstly, no compatibility mode. While there hasn't been a lot of times I've…
Hi, I'm working on a scene for my studies and after restarting the PC I'm getting this lines, all the materials are gone and some of the models. Is there a way to fix it or is it gone? Here is the file, in case it can help somehow. MA MB file -f -new; // untitled // performFileDropAction ("D:/3D…
I wouldn’t make the interior glass opaque, that would prevent refractions of the room /wood behind the bottle. Instead, flip the normals of the interior, so it’s more like a bottle within a bottle, and color that. The lighting you have now is very front-lit, with too-dark edges. It would be more dramatic and visually…
Hello! Some time ago I finished a project and thought I’d make a breakdown of the whole process from start to finish. This is not a detailed tutorial for every step but rather an overview over the process that I hope will help people (especially beginner 3D artists) get a better understanding of how the pipeline works.…
