Re: CGMA - Organic World Building in UE4 progress
In week 5 we focused on rocks and watched some techniques to take them to the next level using shaders. We focused on adding more details to the rocks, work on the slope vector shader, mesh vert displacement shader and Parallax / Bump offset shader. Here is how my scene looked in week 5: The slope vector shader really adds… -
Re: How-to bake Transparency Effect in to Diffuse map
You can't replicate the gumballs in a standard shader. You would need a complex custom shader, with fancy parallax, and that's usually more expensive to render in realtime than simply using geometry balls inside a transparent cylinder. Quick test in 3ds Max with two cylinders, and a free texture off the web. There's no… -
Re: Portfolio Critique/Review
Your texture work is a bit to flat at the moment. Your container has even rust wear on each extrusion along the side and there are no focal points of where the damage would build up. Think about how this would function in the real world and if it were being moved with a crane or fork lift what areas would be likely to hit… -
Re: Sketchbook: RasielD (aka Paul D.)
Hello:) I think your best stuff is probably the sculpture and the dragon basemesh. You seem to have a good sense of shape and volume, but to me, this doesn't seem to transfer to your 2D work. You work with a lot of bright colors, but you don't use them to describe shapes, you lay them on flat. Notice for instance the… -
Re: FN Five-SeveN Pistol
Yeah it seems so, the aliasing is due to just a screengrab/snipping tool, doesn't alias much in viewport :) But some edges could benefit from a fatter bevel, totally. All grips are baked into the normal, aside from the top slide's triangular extrusions (since that'd be closest to the players view, i imagined it'd be nice… -
Re: Pirate Fort. Better way to model for game engine?
You could have the roof be flat, but have a few shingles modeled that stick out a bit to help the silhouette. I would probably model the individual poles for the gates. You could make the floor above the gate one flat mesh, but if you do the planks individually you can have them warped a bit, and it would look cool.… -
Re: Term for upper lips being raised, revealing teeth, when in a neutral expression?
That lip pose doesn't have a name, but for adults, it can be refereed as a 'pout', especially in the case of women (however, you will get a different meaning when applied to children or men). Also; That is why when modeling lips you make sure they're not exactly ontop of each other, have a tiny gap, just enough to use a… -
Re: Les Paul Guitar Prop
Your edge distribution is really bad, there should be even spacing as much as possible between vertices, also try not to have tris, bad for deforming and doesn't smooth well on curved objects, have them in flat spots, but keep in mind they might warp your bevel if they share vertices. Use blin material or any reflective… -
Re: MGS4 art making-of articles @ softimage.jp
I'd be very interested to see the flat textures for the characters. I know the article says "512x512 for an entire character", but I'm having trouble believing that, especially given all the unique details shown on a lot of them. Then again, Japanese game artists do tend to really pack stuff into their UV maps like… -
Re: WW2 German Infantry update
ye daz.. good as usual check out his hands, i think it could use more work they look kinda flat to me but i cant quite point it out if the watch sits on the lowest place on the arm, just on the wrist, then the back of the hand is a little flat or long.. may be the bone structure of the thumb that is a little off? i think…
