Re: Best video games current
TDRL; haven't gamed in quite awhile, stories haven't been the greatest lately, agree. Just for the record i haven't been gaming since ARK 1 (kind of a nightmare but otherwise neat for me at the time.) Maybe it was forced but also the p.c. i used at the time was 12 years old and i got it to run enough for me so could've… -
Re: Turning MEGATHREAD's in to sub-forums, please read.
* Code formating for FX shaders, maxscript, melscripting and python scripting, or at least something that is available through the GUI of the bb. Use the Advance posting mode (not just Quick Reply). There's function in there for Code tags (right beside the Add Image button). Is this what you mean? * Google redirected… -
Re: BRAWL 2 [Environment] The Jungle, sketchem
Small update I was able to find a solution for the shading. This person put me on the tip of using the vertex interpolator with fake lights. I created a material function that uses the SkyAtmosphereLightDirection instead of an arbitrary 3vector. It generates something I can lerp between light and dark using the level… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | September - October (98)
Thanks a lot for the thoughtful feedback! =) Those are really solid notes, especially the comments about wall UVs, geometry sharpness, and texel density. I can definitely see what you mean about the high-frequency detail and the carved-rock feel. I haven’t tried a triplanar setup yet, but I’ll experiment with that next… -
Re: UE5 workflow ideas - texturing high poly meshes
I know that blender definitely lets you paint vertex color directly, and it also supports multiple vertex color channels, here's a quick sanity check to make sure I'm not spreading BS on the forums. Just subdivided a cube to get sove verts real quick, I guess it qualifies as programer art at this point. Basically, if you… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | January - February (100)
@StarbirdUlt Nice progress :+1: I would note the lighting makes it hard to see the environment though. Looking forward to see that trim-sheet applied to some geometry. To that point, I recommend previewing it applied to different situations while working on it. Also at distances the final renders will be - at greater… -
Re: Are materials always reflective with PBR rendering?
That is likely very tricky since it not just fresnel and instead some special fresnel based on lighting with reflection somehow. But if all fails I give that a try. That didn't help it. From how I understand PBR it is not just in the shader but also in the lighting and UE4 is build around PBR. So if I would get rid of PBR… -
Re: {UDK}- Crash Site Mayday -{WIP}
Dev Blog 02 Hi guys, in the last few updates you probably noticed the landscape's shader having some interesting effects. Now the shader and landscapes are complete and I would love some feedback, but first a taste of what has been happening in the background. Adding Tileables for Landscape: Shader Functionality Complete:… -
Re: Albedo Creation Confusion
Thanks for the expansions :) One thing that I think is close to solving specular edge problems like you mention is having a geometric + normal map -> effective roughness conversion like Valve's Advanced VR presentation (I linked that earler up the page) and UE4's "Composite Texture" for that matter. There is no equation… -
Re: Hatched shadows or another solution to this problem
I googled before but it seems I looked right over your post. Been testing for a few days (as well as making a video for a presentation I had to do in the meantime) but still can't get it to work perfectly. I've also attempted to recreate sprunghunt's shader (as well as some others). Which I placed in my post-process chain…
