Weird line on every seam with normal map
Hey guys! I have stumbled upon this problem here and I really need some help! I have offset my uv's by 1 in maya but. now whenever I add my normal map I get this visible seam on every uv island. what do I do here? :S -
Re: Shading/artifact issues on flat surfaces after applying the “Soften Edges” feature
Hi! Did you bake a unique normal map from a high poly to a lowpoly, then changed the lowpolys shading? If so, I would expect the final shading (mesh shading + normal map) to no longer look correct. The normal map stores the difference in shading of the meshes it was baked with. So if you change the lowpoly shading, you… -
beginner Normal map baking
Hi all i have a small issue .im a beginner and im trying to understand the normal map baking and my first issue that i have is that my edges after baking smooth edges model to a hard edges model.. that my result after i bake the high to the low poly , and i checked the UVs and i think they seem fine i also saw in a forum… -
little normal map tip
Just thought I would share this, though most of you already know it. If you have overlapping uv's and you wannna render out your normal map with RTT in max, to avoid messing up , select one of the elements that overlaps and change the w setting to 1. (you know you have uvw) so in theory one of your elements has 'w' set to… -
Creating normals with multiple objects
I am creating a low poly asset, currently working on high poly for normals. I knew that this screw on the side would be very time consuming to add within the main model itself so I created it separate. Only after I made it I realized my surface wasn't flat beneath... if I'm not mistaken it will appear as a separate object.… -
Issue after mirroring geometry in maya (maybe a normals issue)
How to get rid of the lines on the characters nose and chest. I tried resetting the normal angle but after mirroring the geometry, ran into this issue. -
Re: Modeling and blending normals
Hi. You could use a second uv channel, yes, but Unreal doesn't generate tangents for it by default, so the material setup isn't really straight forward. There are 2 nodes that you will need to use. "derive tangent base" to make tangents for the second channel, and "blend angle corrected normals" to blend the 2 normals. Its… -
Baking and Normals Workflow
Ok, im trying to learn baking, but im a bit iffy on the workflow of it all. Ive created a high poly, and am almost done the low poly. But, i want to zBrush some of it as well. I tried bringing in the highpoly to zBrush, but when i brought it back to Max, it said no enough memory. So what am i to do? do i get the normal map… -
Re: WebGL normal map issue
Hello, thank you for the reply. We're using WebGL 3. Our programmer is only using the .mtl I export from 3ds max to import the maps, which isn't working quite properly as it seems. Do you have any suggestions on how a normal map should be setup in WebGL for it to be working as a normal map?
