Re: Weekly Substance Challenge
You might want to try something like this... start with a larger shape, that already has some falloff like a PRABOLOID. Use a TRANSFORM node to OFFSET it slightly in X, then use either another TRANSFORM or a SYMMETRY node (in my case I have my own symmetry node) to mirror the offset shape across the Y axis. It will… -
Maya Arnold question, Solidangle Scenes
I tried to import my mesh from substance painter to maya but I didn not get it to look right in Arnold. So I decided to start with the basics and follow the Arnold tutorials first. Unfortunately the files provided in the solidangle learning area https://support.solidangle.com/display/AFMUG/Learning+Scenes do not look like… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | May - June (102)
@BillyJackman, "stab at the eye" sounds really painful :p But jokes aside, my only critique would be in regard to the eye itself. Right now everything about it is so perfectly round, it seems out of style with the rest of the prop. Maybe if the surface was less smooth and/or the pupil texture not as sharp..?… -
Re: Substance Designer - Master Thread
Cheers all! I do know that the grunge maps are heavy, I'd actually used clouds previously by the effect isn't as nice as the grunge. Still, there's a project for us - Cheap Grunge. Rogelio, yeah when it comes to the blend node I also wondered why they didn't have screen and overlay built into the blend node. You can see… -

Re: Alpha glow using ShaderFX and ambient light in Maya LT
Hey, thanks for posting the problem. I forgot to compensate the ambient light for pre-multiplied-alpha in maya. If you want to fix it yourself locally, then you can: Enable Advanced Mode Go into traditional game surface shader Go into "InsideLightLoop" grp Find the node "AmbientLightAndAO" Create a "Multiply" node Connect… -
Help! How to derive a mask from a "max" style blend node.
I attached a quick example below. I'm struggling with how to derive a solid one-bit style mask from two heightfields blended using the max style blending. My mockup below is basically approximating some pebbles I want to blend on some sand. But I can't use the original pebble generator as a mask because a lot of the… -
Re: no games use coloured specular
Ah yeah, the lines are blurred with UE3. Programmers can write a shader (like HLSL) that generates the inputs for the nodes in our material editor, but we can also switch the material editor to use "Custom Lighting" Which means you can generate the whole lighting model in our material editor (some stuff is still done in… -
[Maxscript] Event Callback for multiple nodes added/deleted
Hi all, We've run into some issues with maxscript's event callback mechanism. It doesn't seem to have an event for after all items in the "queue" have been deleted or added. Backstory: we have a dotNet listview that displays objects, and some of the object's properties. When the user deletes or adds new items, the list…
