The whole forum is about game development, we don't need a section :) The problem with these sort of questions is that the answer depends on what you're making and what your engine and toolchain can cope with. and on top of that - the answer will often be "all of the above" Your best bet on the terrain / road stuff is to…
Combining AO will just be a blend set on multiply. FX maps are pretty complex beasts. So much so that entire second video is dedicated to creating the node to add the footprints. Make sure you watch the entire video, follow it closely, its quite easy to make mistakes particularly on the "code" side of things. If you feel…
Apprehension [ QUOTE ] Take the standard RTS format and extend it into the First Person perspecive. No longer are you isolated from the fight. No longer are you alone. You are on the ground with your troops. Not just that, but those troops are also intelligent players like yourself! Build a land factory and give yourself…

I'm trying to decide on whether i should buy a 4 core / 6 core / 8 core i7 CPU? Does anyone know if Quixel Suite benefit from having more cores? Or is it single CPU bound (like most games)? The most slow aspects of Quixel for me are when I enter into Dynamask Paint mode and whenever I apply my changes to the mask settings.…
It has come to my attention that I have never even used edge mode in lightwave, and then I started thinking to myself, does it exist? So can someone please answer this (EarthQuake hopefully, since I know he uses LW and has gone to the trouble of helping me out before): Is there an edge mode in LW8 similar to the one in max…
I am wondering why there isn't a blend node with alpha like in other material editors. The Lerp node doesn't allow you to multiply, add or overlay two textures with a plug for an alpha texture. If I am not mistaken Lerp uses the Normal like photoshop blend mode. Is there a way to blend using multiply, add, overlay,…
