Re: Understanding tangent and binormal workflows between programs?
Still a very confusing topic for me but from what I learned is that most programs now, like Substance, Xnormal, and Knald all use Mikkt space as the tangent space calculator to bake normal maps. Maya and 3ds max use a different tangent space calculator to bake normal maps. If you are exporting a mesh from Maya/3ds max to… -
Re: Gentry Farmhouse and Tree (UDK)
Nedwork, Thanks a whole lot for your crit! I appreciate it! Are you doing Undead Labs work over at the Seattle campus or at the Bellevue one? Anyway, the original farmhouse was done about two years ago in a Jason Stokes class when he was still teaching at Seattle Central. In that class, the maps were HEAVILY folded over… -
Re: Town of Timberdale [Environment WIP]
Thanks again! I think you're right that they don't look great on that one but I think I have a better solution than getting rid of them altogether - The reason I don't want to do that is because then the roof would have a very sudden and straight edge - which is to fix their actual location which I seem to have messed up… -

Re: I got my dream computer. Here's how that went bad for me
"I joined a forum because there is NOTHING about this online." Does seem as if you've deep dived the interwebs for info and possibly landed on overclock.net as well? It's been ages but from what I can recall that community was probably or more than likely still populated with power users, if nothing else in my opinion… -
Re: How to tile a photogrammetry ground source?
Substance Designer has only pretty useless smart tiling similar to "detect edges" in Alchemist . ( 7:11 in the second video) As of Alchemist it has a few promising features like Content aware fill (9:47) and clone but I never found it really helpful . They both deteriorate somewhat natural look of photogrammetry scanned… -
Re: Futuristic Russian Helicopter (Hind inspired)
Joeriv: haha I might be one of the few 3d artists who actually enjoys UVs (at least the final fitting to 0-1 part). It's def a giant puzzle! Teh Splatt, Powermaennchen: Thx! Battlecow: Too kind! I actually liked my original version of the cockpit framing more but there was one big problem: It wasn't functional. Oops!… -

LessNode – a mind mapping tool that tries to keep up with your thinking
Hi everyone, I'm a Technical Artist and part-time indie game developer, and I've been building a small side project called LessNode. The original motivation was pretty simple: when thinking about ideas, design problems, or technical solutions, my thoughts often move faster than most tools can keep up with. So I started… -
