Hi! Does the combined object not have 3 materials assigned to it? Not a Max User, but I think you'd want to feed the textures into the materials used by the object through the material editor. Perhaps going through the Max documentation you figure this out (Texture, Example of using Maps).
Disclaimer: While I'm a programmer, I haven't written a "proper" render engine. Some of what I say is from my own experience, and therefore may be less than 100% true. With that said... First off, one thing that we should be clear on with half/float/doubles are approximations of decimal numbers. Computers don't really have…
hey, well, in essence your work is great. From a technical point of view everything is done properly as far as I can tell. You acquired the mechanical skills .... but your work is lacking some kind of WOW effect. Every image I look at I´m getting the feeling its either not finished or it was done quickly. Maybe create…
Here's some tips to producing really low spec art: Go as low as possible. TBH, if this game were made on DS, these would be sprites because they would look better as sprites that always face the camera. But, for this example, I'll model to explain some things. Four sides looks as round as 6 sides on the small screen. So…
Hello! I don't have harsh words but hopefully I have useful a critique. You're showing an ortho view of the sculpt. Did you also sculpt in ortho? This can be very challenging and look wrong once you switch to the target focal length in perspective. When working from references look up "focal length portrait" to get a sense…
This is looking great so far. I love the color palette. I think it's worth pushing it a bit more to get it to a really good place for your portfolio. 1. The gray-purple stucco on the walls should have some weathering near the wood beams. Without this it's looking very flat. An example from here on our wiki: 2. There is a…
I like the handle solution for the brush work, irl. obviously like the updates and work, congrats, my ex said she just carried some of her works with her and she would get people willing to purchase them randomly, through general conversation. (also commissions) Just a friendly option if you wanted to do that sort of…
that's not either, that's both/all :) as I said getting the overlapping faces is the easy bit deciding which to delete not so much ! think i'd also start by adding a planar map in a suitable direction on an unused map channel first..... and even that might produce spurious results, for example using the uvw map overlapping…
Hello guys, I registered to this forum to get your insight on PBR workflows and texturing for those. My question on albedo maps: Albedo If I understood the idea behind it an albedo map should contain no lighting information except the pure reflected diffuse. So should there be any gradients in an albedo color map at all?…
ok... So if i understand correctly, the Example file you guys supplied to demonstrate what ddo can do out of the box has custom curvature map you plugged which you didn't include in the source as part of the package? And is the key map to get the look you are showing off as an example? Cool! So i scavenged the forums after…
