Hi guys, I don't understand. Why is there such a big difference between how my foliage and static mesh is being lit? I have a lot of "glowing" mushrooms, which is not intended, so I placed a SM next to it, and it lightbakes completely different. Any hints on how to improve my lihgtbake on the foliage?
What you can do, instead of fighting with monitors is look at the actual color values, levels, histogram in Photoshop. These don't lie. But at the end of the day, getting your monitor right is super important for painting textures and getting your scene correct for everyone else. Because your settings must be way off. If…
I think the lighting is still a bit unbalanced - the light on the wall of candles and across the back middle windows almost reads to me as sunset/sunrise. I think there could be a little less light from the candles, and little more light on the candles, if that makes sense. The amount of light they cast is much more…
I've made all of these materials 2 sided, so surely it shouldn't cause this issue? I can't seem to fix it. Any ideas? The meshes have cast shadows enabled too.

Looks like a good start. I think it would be a good idea to set up some lighting in here, even if its placeholder. The space just feels kinda dark and uninspiring right now. I like the reference, but i feel like the yellow curly bits, while fitting nicely in the concept...look out of place in your scene. I think it might…
Good grief. The last time I went three days with no sleep I was in the military and people were trying to kill me. Catch some Zs man. I find there is a certain loss to returns after so many missed hours of sleep. 10 hours worth of sleep deprived work can often be done in 5-6 hours refreshed from spending the extra 4-5…

So now that the workshop is well on its way, and there is tons of mods. Which ones do you guys use? if any at all? I have been skeptic about mods, but using the workshop is so much easier, you can see the updates and comments, and you only need to subscribe to use the mod. (unless it asks you to install something else as…
I totally know the feels... the life of a lighting artist on a daily basis lol. I literally spend full days fighting issues like that at work. If you are set on having the sun light coming in from that direction, and same with the foliage right there at the entrance, you can also try making a lower gloss variant of that…
