you could generate this with code or you could simply composite images. either way, the result will depend entirely on how you combine your gradients/distancefields/however you choose to think of it here is an example in substance designer. the maths translate 1:1 to any shading language and can be easily ported to code.…
This is a very subjective question, it depends on your learning style, and everyone is going to have a different experience learning these tools. I think Unity is initially easier to pick up than Unreal, because they've made it a priority to pare down the main interface to be as simple as possible. However as you dig…

You need to remove that circular gradient or combine it with what OkiDoki suggested to have sort of a variation. There are certain texture patterns particularly gradients that are not possible to be seamless thats where in between parts come in to hide those seams. Blue orange and black will also bleed on UVs of your floor…
Hello fellow polycounters! I'm a student from Sweden that studies at The Game Assembly. This is my seconds year at this school and we have just started producing 3D games. Last year we made four 2D games (posted Wings Of Steel last year as well). Anyways, this friday we finished our first 3D game. This year we were…
I went looking for the forums recently, as now UT2004 got re-released , I couldn't find any other way to do some playermodels than Milkshape. I think I bought it twice over the years as I kept forgetting the code / losing the email I regged on. Must've been 2002/2004 I last used it. Would be cool to see the project picked…
Subdivision sketch: No. Really, it's all the same. In some ways angular shape intersections are just curved intersections without curves and curved shape intersections are just angular intersections without corners. Both curved and square shapes can be joined to curved surfaces using the same basic loop routing strategies.…
Tldr; fiddling with things till i get it right, learned the milliseconds matter eventually, got 2 versions of the shader now. Yeah, i am testing taking apart the current setups of the current material shader options available and seeing what does what and then re-configuring them back together, its been a learning…
Here's a hint to make things that toggle into really simple code: toggleCmd -flag (1-`toggleCmd -q -flag`); So in your case: selectPref -useDepth (1-`selectPref -q -useDepth`); To make it callable from the command line, you need to make it a global procedure and load it. Making it a procedure is simple: global proc…
I'll try those fix's for the shading problem guys thanks. I want to stay with Max, I do. But I can't see justifying the price tag when I have to pay for it with all the problems I find. I know no app. is going to be perfect, and that the coding behind these programs must be a huge/painful task to build, but why keep adding…
