I'm after some texturing feedback on a locomotive I've built. I'm mostly after texture techniques which I could use to improve the texturing on the loco.

Several years ago I made a series of training videos to teach artists how to write real-time shaders in HLSL. The series starts out with very simple concepts so that someone with no programming experience at all can start right from the beginning and learn to write shaders.

I need the shadow of the car on its own preferably on the plane but with an alpha. Basically i'm going to comp the shadows onto a 360 rotation of the car…

If it can help, you can still use heitmap in UE5 but right now the existing systems are... not bug-free. From what I've tried you can use: The…
