Re: [ShaderFX + Maya] ShadowMap node doesn't work (and other questions)
Turns out I don't have to disconnect the node! I just renamed it and it worked, I appended a '1' and all was OK. Guess there is a name clash. I'm making a system for doing hand-drawn animation style in 3D and using anime as a basis. This shader is one small piece of it. However it means the shadows need to work in… -

Re: Sketchbook: Luxap
Did the textures on the ferns in the last couple of days, as well as some testing within a small environment as well. Got some good feedback on the ferns already, seed to put some more time into the SSS part of the texture, so that's where I'll be spending my time on next Also spent some time on a water shader I still had… -
Re: Sci-fi/Steampunk/Manga Character WIP
I think you missed the direction. The overall head shape is headed in the right direction, but the musculature layout and all the features are off. You've also interpreted a shadeing line as a geometric divot. Eyes should be more square, nose is too pronounced and masculine, lips are also too masculine. Distance from chin… -

Re: Really Dumb Question about Specular Maps in Maya...
Specular is actually just faking real life reflections in a really cheap manner. It's not a real phenonmenon to being with. So anything non raytraced-reflections to begin with is "cheating" in my eyes, and not in a bad way. Lots of things are cheating when it comes to computer graphics in any field. Either way. There is no… -
Re: Texel Density & Trim
if you're not sharing texture with other assets then only use trim techniques where it actually helps and don't be afraid to bump your texel density if that's what you need to make it look right. at 1024px/metre, 1 pixel is <1mm across : at this density you need to get pretty close to a surface to see pixels (even at 4k)… -
Re: [RANT]What I really REALLY hate about Blender as a 3ds Max user.
I never used face constrain a lot in Max , only edge one usually and after switching to Blender I instantly loved its "slide" counterpart where you could instantly move a vertex or edge along any of adjacent edges with double GG and contrary to Max you can do it outside of a mesh shape with Alt pressed. Never figure out…
