It's more likely an issue on the rendering side. If you're using Maya/Arnold, try searching for that. This is also a good resource to look at: https://www.cggallery.com/tutorials/disp With the 32bit image, even if it looks black there's still data there.
Me and Arshlevon were having this conversation a bit the other night. Bare with me now as I'm gonna ramble a bit. I think there is a huge majority of people in the industry as artists, who aren't really artists. They are technicians. They have learned a very limited ruleset of this+that=game asset. While it results in ok…
I learned Maya when I was in 7th grade. I torrented the maya essential training and went from there. Yeah I didn't learn anything really advanced for a long time but my point is that if you have the right tutorial, anyone can learn any program. You just have to pick a set of tutorials that will take you from knowing…
I totally agree with Xoliul on this, but i can also see the point (when you are really new) to see something be created from scratch with all the steps included. I remember when i where new, i followed alot of tutorials step by step and it looked awesome but when i tried making something original i had loads of truble…
My work so far! I could call it finished, but If someone has any ideas to make the scene better, do tell please! After started and (kind of) finishing a awesome mech-tank I am now starting on a new portfolio piece called: Sanctum. (My old thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=116199) I will make my first…
Minding my own business working on an asset when I encountered an issue and here we are with a tutorial. Most of it is part of old Polycount but some fresh take. Full version here: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/rlGqrE Its 2025 we have nanite, AI, lots of procedural tools and fancy features yet I keep seeing students,…
Tobbo: Yeah you're really right! I do need to narrow down this Modeling passage. I have dabbled in several different areas, and I actually have several projects coming up that vary as well. While I do these upcoming projects I will take into consideration how much I enjoy doing each one and which one I loved doing the…
Hello! I have Quixel 2.2 and I am having trouble figuring out how to use it. I use Blender 3D with it, and I can't find a good tutorial to learn Quixel. The tutorials I have found either 1. Don't explain what they are doing to get their results... It's basically "Yay I imported a bunch of things and now the model is…
I followed some tutorials on the internet on how to do that but i had no success using them because i was always stuck in a certain part of the tutorials and i couldnt understand how to continue. I also searched the forum for tutorials but i still had no luck in making a texture. I should explain what exactly i want to…
I think the single largest issue I've had with Modo is community support. It's fairly easy for a dumb issue to crop up, like accidentally pressing some hotkey and breaking the viewport (I recently managed to accidentally activate Falloff, preventing me from being able to transform anything, and it took a few hours to…
