Stupidly, yes. Guessing they're assuming the gloss value will stay relatively well compressed in the alpha, with AO getting next best compression in the green. Metalness doesn't need that much to it, so it gets next best in the red. I've had to hack the Standard shaders to use RGB rather than RGA and that's a real pain now…
Hi! To sacboi's point, you might want to tighten up the mesh shading of the environment using hard edges. Since it's textured using a trim atlas which was baked to a flat plane, the normal map is not compensating for any gradients in mesh shading. I would note that the of the shading of the hero asset in Unreal appears to…
I'm still fairly new to Designer, but here's my thoughts: In the long run it's probably indeed will be faster to mass-produce assets using Designer only. Painter is great too and it has smart materials/smart masks, but Designer is much more flexible. In time you'll have a number of graphs and useful graph snippets that…
not that I am into unity, but it's nice that you release your lightmapper! I've looked into your code. And having written a similar tool for luxinia once, here is some hints towards better efficiency and higher quality results: raycast vs raytrace Don't trace from lightsource to object, but do the opposite. That is shoot a…
Don't believe all those positive reviews there is quite a lot things still very wrong with Unity3D. Sure they will upgrade and fix the flaws and gabs but it is NO WAY close to what they claim in their ads and website (just like adobe, autodesk,microsoft,... software).. Here is a list of things that I really hate so far, my…
VCS: A version control system has it roots in programming.. when multiple people work on several text files any changes on the same file will be "overwritten" by the last one who changes this. So in a VCS everyone has an own version which then are tried to merge.. if there are changes in different location of a text file…
Hi! I am having an issue with my model getting a falloff in the viewport. I don't know what causes it and neither did my teacher so I am hopeing you guys might have a hunch. Here is a picture of the viewport: http://imageshack.us/f/10/wierdfalloff.jpg/
So, i have this base mesh which is a midget with 1 arm and leg and the other arm and leg are going to be artificial... So the base mesh has a stumpy arm/leg on one side, resulting in wierd topological axis. The rest of the mesh such as chest, hips and head are symetrical and i need to sculpt details on these, but due to…
