I have my custom split texture node. like splitting one master file 2x2k into several vertical stripes like 256x2k or 64x2k etc. that does pixel precise splitting . It requires a special sizelog integer2 connection from master image node to splitting nodes that tells the splitting node the initial size of the master one.…
*** SOLVED *** So thanks to my team member Ryan Manning he has figured this issue out! So for anyone else trying to fix this issue were is what you need to know: From CryDocs: "CRYENGINE will automatically try to replace physics proxies with parametric primitives by comparing the proxy geometry against the supported…
klunk is completely correct about needing a full vector field - the data has to be continuous and smooth or all manner of stupid shit happens in the gaps the best "don't need to write a special tool approach" I've found is to use a hair sim, apply a material that writes out the derivatives along each hair (arnold has a…
you can scale the UVs going into a maya texture node and indeed that data will not be passed through when the model is exported. in principle, if you apply the same transform to UVs plugged into a texture sampler in unreal it should give you the same result - if there's a difference it could be a few things - the texture…
I know theirs a few, I'll see if I can dig them up later. till then here's some of my notes from when I was learning it, some of it may be off but I've tried to update it to some degree (incoming wall of text): MAYA Notes Basics Menu names: 1st down (menu type) = Status line 2nd down (Tabs) = Shelf Left = Toolbox Spacebar…
This is a great thread, lots of stuff I didn't know. commander_keen would you mind explaining the math and/or process behind the lightmap modulation? I'm currently coding my own pixel shaders in Unity for the Sidescroller challenge going on right now and I'd like to be able to do more than just multiply my lightmap on top…
Does anyone managed to use it for something other than vertex paint based scattering of things ? I am trying to make randomized arrays along curves , something more complex than what was formerly dupliverts and couldn't figure out anything yet. Like random fence posts along a road curve driven by some id map or something ?
