Re: Unwrapping a bit more complex cylindrical shape (issue with vertical faces)
Splitting and straightening the UV islands to increase the overall texture density makes sense in theory but in practice it's a bit more complicated than that since there's multiple factors to consider. In the overall scheme of things a single road wheel is a very small part of a tank and it's unlikely that every part of… -
Re: Need help in baking related problem
On UV issue - well that's curious and something you'd want to resolve. I recommend checking the asset in engine (assuming it's a game asset), alternatively could import into a fresh file. Regarding supporting loops/ bevels: I think once the mesh shades nicely, adding more support loops will do little and mainly increase… -

I want to render it in Marmoset. But I can try to make a bigger difference in roughness in the asset. I will check the example that you… -
Re: Programmning vs Artist in the Game Industry
I think you forgot the part where any game with procedural art, ESPECIALLY Spore, is ugly as my fuckin ballsack. I'd take Half Life 2's visuals 10 days out of the week over Spore's. Richard Kain had some good advice. Java is a good place to start, but you will definitely need to learn at least some C++. It is such a piece… -
Re: Specular map question
[ QUOTE ] FatAssasin: You talk of what happens in the real world. [/ QUOTE ] No, I'm talking about what happens in a 3d rendering engine. You keep bringing up real world examples, and that just isn't going to help with the problem of controlling the size of spec highlights on the computer. I'll repeat, that's why there is… -
