So I'm working on an environment in UDK and I planned on making heavy usage of Prefab actors to quickly snap together groupings of modular meshes. However, I'm running into an issue where shift-dragging out a duplicate seems to reset the dupe to the original rotation of the actor, rather than keeping the orientation of the…
Salve, galera! How are you guys? So after writing a good backstory and spending some weeks gathering more references, doing some doodles and blocking out the map using a new perspective given by Thiago, it was time to go hands on and start texturing. Before that, I would like to show a bit of my progress in the blockout…
To give you an idea of what's possible with tinting, here's a project I did with extreme tinting in Unity. All the textures are greyscale, all the color is done with custom shaders. https://polycount.com/discussion/160691/sketchbook-eric-chadwick/p1 Here's another example of extreme tinting, made by Snefer in Unreal…
Quick update! Trying out some more modular wall pieces and tried out the moon surface using World Machine. As the floor will be a skybox asset it isn't an asset that will get a lot of time poured into it, but I will probably run it through Zbrush for further stylising soon. Interior still needs a lot of work and hopefully…
Nice, looks pretty neat overall. The presentation of the individual modular pieces irks me a little bit though. The spec/lighting is making everything look really shiny and cheap. It all looks much better in UDK though. Maybe consider working on that...or even just getting footage of the pieces spinning in UDK so they…
im having this problem on my current project too and i cant progress until i fix it. because it does it to ALL modular instanced assets. fml. try this tutorial. it hasnt fixed our problem, but maybe you can better interpret it and understand the principal behind this practice.…
Baking turned out ok There's some problem on the edges and smoothing so I'm going to have to improve my modeling. Low poly at 6330 tris which should be ok for their game. With the base textures done going to move into detailing with ndo2 and making nicer textures. I have to model some modular enviro pieces this week so not…
Hey, guys, I'm pretty much wrapping up the HP. I am already working on my Low Poly, not too bad so far, lots of modular pieces and instances.

You should host your image somewhere, like imgur and display it directly using wiki which is an awesome bank of knowledge when it comes to this stuff. Start there, iterate and refine your work, and post back for some feedback. Here is a few places to try first; Mega resource for environment stuff Modular brick wall and…
I have to say that rocks are not easy to get looking right, especially ones of a modular nature. The difficulty is that the only real way to get what you want is trial, error and experimentation - as I'm sure you know by now :D It's really impressive to see how quickly you've developed your skills this far, and it won't be…
