Re: [WIP] Cartoon Style Floating Islands
I can't seem to get a good color for my walls, as of right now, it seems way too orange, but I've been at this for too long and can't seem to find a color that I like... Also, I've ran into a small problem, my chimney isn't casting a shadow on my house, dunno if someone has an idea about that. It's not the lightmap or the… -
Re: WIP - Durp
Minor updates. Tree has been switched out for bamboo and top level is somewhat up and running in unreal now. Having problems with lightmaps on segmented static meshes though. Hopefully get that resolved today. Here is screenshot of the lighting seam. I got a couple suggestions in the UDK thread I'll be trying out today.… -

I'm going through this "transition" at the moment and as an artist the way you do things don't change that much, you just need to get used to the tools and the diferent material editor and you're good to go. There's plenty of little diferences between one engine and the other, part of the fun will be figuring all them out… -
Re: 3ds Max 2016 VS. Maya 2016 for modeling?
Lightwave, have you guys not seen these tools = http://www.3rdpowers.com/ Jokes aside though, there is just something about Max. It gives you a more direct & in control feeling. MODO is great but there are just times when its hard to spot & fix mesh errors. You have to run MeshCleanup constantly & hope that it fixes the… -
Re: [UDK] Portfolio Environments (WIP)
Thanks for the kind words everyone. It's extremely motivating :) Anyway, here's a little update. I added a new skybox. I opted to handpaint it; it still needs refinement but it's achieving the look I want. I also added some morph target animations to the sacs. Aside from that, I just did general world building and lightmap… -
Re: [UDK] Sci-Fi Corridor
Huh. I almost hate to ask, but with the issues your describing with the lighting, you do have a second UVW channel set up in 3dsmax that has no overlapping faces for your lightmaps, right? IE, add a second UVW modifier to the stack, change the UVW channel to 2, move your old UVW's over onto it, and then Pack everything… -
Re: Labyrinth of the Pig
yeah! someone pointed that out earlier. I was doing the baking while at work inbetween lightmapping and totally missed that. I was trying to project it to a flat surface and I was having to push my cage out so far I just said screw it and added geo. I'll do the same with the wall too. this thing is going to be a couple… -
Re: Gears of War Judgment Art
NickGW - Thanks, my pleasure :) So yes I placed an extra row near the edges just to get a better blend. The stucco texture was seamless throughout all meshes, but in case there were any lightmap bleeding issues so we could paint maybe some grime or broken stone. In the end, I had to go back and stitch a few of the bigger… -
Re: 'Stalker' viral ad
I dunno that I'd go quite as far as pure shite, but I wasn't at all impressed either. I just created a server and peeked around. It suffers terribly from the age old problem of the lightmap pass being 'used up' on the outside of the buildings, and thus all the interiors have literally no lighting or shading at all and look… -
Re: Basement environment
been working with the lightning in udk , but I keep getting these lightmap erros in my bsp walls. here's how it looks like: I get very sharp edges where my polygons are. They are just simple bsp brushes with a planar mapping on them. And it doesn't help to render the lightning in production either... I have remade the…
