Yep, unlit scene with mostly (if not entirely) unique textures so you can paint the lighting directly on to the models. Here's one of my favorite examples, or a more recent example.
Here's a quickie Max 2010 file, using the example texture from your first post. Take a close look at the modifier stack. http://www.ericchadwick.com/examples/files/RowBoatTexture.max
I would suggest NOT using an alpha blended surface for these. The texture is going to be filtered with distance, and the lower MIPS will be very blurry. It's generally better to just use pure opaque geometry. Include enough cross-sections to reduce long thin triangles, which can cause performance issues with some GPUs.…
you could break up the UV's into islands with the boundaries as the edges you want rounded.... export as obj load into this tool then using the element mask in photoshop ..... add a gaussian blur and use the nvidia plugin to convert to a normal map..... for example a simple box uv elements (just each side)... guassian @…
I'm not sure if Portal 2 is a great example for a great videogame story. It's hilarious, sure, but I'd imagine there would be quite a few examples you could have picked that are better in that regard.
Update: By trial and error I have found precise formula for Height Adjust filter Multiply slider: square root of the multiplier between two Texel Densities For example suppose we have Td = 4 and Td = 15, thus 15 / 4 = 3.75 and now the square root of 3.75 = 1.936 so to obtain equal height magnitude between two Td = 4 and Td…
Update version 2.01: Hello! I just updated my script on ArtStation which now comes with a new option "Force offset" that might help achieve a better result in certain situations. Basically, as you can see in the animation below, if you check this box, an offset will be applied to the Quad Fill Hole no matter what. Update…
Open up the example night and day transition map in UDK. It has examples of this exact thing. You should just be able to use a world position node as UVs to make water run downwards.
Yeah its important to note that the values in the chart are for very specific examples, and that they are just that, example materials, not strict rules that tell you every plastic material needs to have the blue albedo or anything like that.
