Re: (Finished) Research Outpost - Unreal Engine 5 Environment
Great work in progress, keep at it! Currently it feels like all your props and assets are made of 1 piece and are a similar colour. I know you're going for a frozen aesthetic. I really recommend you look at some reference on how frozen assets look. Usually they still read clearly, maybe have some snow/ice on it. Here a… -
Re: Building modular interiors question!
Hi Jordank95. Wall dimensions question: The best way to determine the needs you are talking about is to lay these pieces out in your 3D engine. Make a 3x3m pieces and compare them to the 4x4 pieces and see what works better for your project. 4x4 might be easier if you don't want to do fractions. Also you might need less… -
Re: Efficient Use of Texture Sheets
Right. So the reference isn't for any one specific item. I understand the principles of efficient UV use, but the reference is more for providing a visual example to other people. Good packing is easy to find, but getting examples of reuse is what is tripping me up. People are happy to reuse textures in modular environment… -
Re: Material Studies?
you can try learning by rough and smooth surfaces (glossy). This is base for classify a lot of materials, but of course, there are few exceptions like rubber materials, that can be smoothness but not necessarily have to emit or reflect the light like some glossy materials, cuz rubber materials absorve too much the light.… -
Re: Edge Constrain in Modo?
I'm was not being dismissive(english is not my first language, and never knew "shenaningans" could have such a negative connotation, and for that I apologize), I'm well aware of the flexibility of the system, it's just that after conducting a few experiments last night I started to get the conclusion that what could be a… -
Re: next gen woes?
Ive been diving into high poly now for a while teaching myself to model at high quality and I admit I dislike it . Spend a shit load of time cutting in detail that most people won't care about in the end . Doom 3 is a great example once the woe factor wore off on the graphics there wasnt much to the game play and so will… -
Re: Race and Game Characters
"Now I think it's kind of rediculous you dont credit the "build your own character" games. I think every game should offer this option as a way to enhance immersion but you seem to see it as a less then worthy solution to a problem you s" You can have a elve or alien sometimes as a option in those same games I disregard.… -
Re: Is This How a Normal Map Should Look or Am I Doing Something Wrong?
Welcome on the forum! Looking at the images, I would make sure those border UVs are straightened, since the bevel is very thight. Perhaps increase bevel width in highpoly, so there's more information to capture. Make sure to check at intended viewing distance, it might be that edge is generally too tight. I think this… -
Re: The biggest challenge I have to face is texturing
Alex_J Well, that's the thing... How do I make good artwork without making good art, and how do I make good art without good modeling AND texturing because if i post acceptable models with bad texturing wouldn't that lower my chances of getting hired ?. Don't get me wrong I am not complaining, I just need some guidance and… -
