Re: halo5 works
So the final in-game models are just straight up geo with bevels? And then smaller detail pieces here and there that are baked but have better texel density? Or are you using trim sheets to run normal map bevels on edges and just tiling the diffuse/detail? -
Re: UV Mapping a High Poly
You could do what MoP suggested and then import that into your app of choice and bake your polypaint to a lower poly count mesh that has been UV'd correctly. That way you have your diffuse in tact to be easily editable in Photoshop if need-be. -
Re: Hand painted texturing advice please?
I'll have to check out Mari when I have the spare time but the price and features feel like overkill for this kind of art. It would be nice to have a Mari Lite, I only need diffuse and rarely go over 512x512 maps. -
Re: Face Sculpt

Re: Normal map hidden noise
3ds Max adds dithering by default. This can be disabled in the Preferences. It's helpful to hide banding artifacts in diffuse or lightmap or other non-precision bakes. But not good for normal map bakes. This thread is a good read on the subject: Of Bit Depths, Banding and Normal Maps -
Re: Bread
"I guess I can see why specularity is also reflective, but it's a diffused reflectivity. It reflects light, but not necessarily nearby objects." Just think about Vray.There is no specular value.Just Reflection and glossiness.Its the same thing.The "specular" itself is the reflection of the light source. -
Re: Why does my texture look so bad in 3DS max?
Go into the material itself in the material editor, using the old compact view (non-node based) Go into the settings for the diffuse map, then set the Blur value to 0,1 and change the filtering method to summed area or none. Should improve the results hopefully :3 -

Re: Patricks portfolio
Hi. the majority of the stuff on your site is metal so its important that your materials are reading correctly, with metals you need to put the majority of your detail into your spec map, the diffuse should be dark and subtle texture.. keep going though -
Re: w'll & Brojo's workshop
does CSGO allow normal maps? Or is it all strictly specular/diffuse based? Pretty nice skins, by the way. I always like this minimalist tri-tone feel as opposed to the over-the-top, whacky AK-47 skins. cough Vulcan cough
