Hmmmm, There are a lot of problems i see with the models. For starters you got some really poorly modeled geometry. I really don't quite know how to explain everything. I would study some other gun wireframes (i'm sure you can find many good examples on this forum) and see how their wireframe looks. There are a lot of…
This looks really cool. But it's very very dark, hard to see all the hard work you put into it. Generally I like to avoid pure blacks, since it's really just filling the frame with a whole lot of nothing. You can still get dramatic lighting without crushing all the shadows into nothingness. I'd suggest adding a soft…
@Neox Substance Designer can be used to make shaders, MDL for example and there's ongoing work to integrate MaterialX. To the OP, we have lots of resources to help with understanding how Naughty Dog does their textures: https://polycount.com/discussion/122359/the-last-of-us-art-dump-rogelio-olguin/p1 Great post from…

Aaaah, feck it. EDIT: OK, so this is the question I have now, why don't people create the correct tangent 'bakers' for their software before releasing it? It doesn't make sense, atleast make the information easy to access so people know. I just found out today thanks to EQ that UDK is NOT synched with anything except Max's…
I have to say the biggest thing as a community I ever see as far as getting people to budge/ work together has been hard competition. As pixelmasher said On the opposite side of the coin we see alot of artist who act like they dont know there bad ass, post a few beauty renders, and then every kid from hobbiest to AI post…
I think one of the main atributes which seperate computer-games from other kinds of media is the interactivity. No matter what kind of game you play, you always have choices to take and interactions available. For the field of story-telling I'm missing the fact, that my interactions in the virtual world really reflect on…
So I took a look at your substance. From my perspective it seems that your are a bit confused by the resolution system of Designer. It seems you want to output textures at 4K, but Designer works in your ram to be efficient. When I opened you graph my computer consumed a total amount of 15gb of ram. This can result is some…
I'm glad you find it useful. There's a lot of scripts, shaders, lighting, LODs and Unity settings all working together so it's a challenge to explain it all clearly. To qualify everything I write: I'm not an engineer and I don't pretend to be. I work closely with them, I do a lot of scripting but I stay out of their code.…
Hello all. I am currently working on a character and I want it to have pixel textures. I am confused about how to straighten uvs. I am currently trying it with this simple mesh, but whenever I try to straighten it, it looks deformed and you can see the stretching on the checker map. I tried different values of the…
