Re: WIP - Character Priestess/Assassin
Thanks Wilex for your comment. I know symmetry is a problem. I've added a few accessories here and there in the design in hopes of making it a bit more interesting. Just wanted to post my WIP. Here is the base mesh I've created thus far (one mesh smooth iteration). If anyone sees any issues please let me know, since I'll… -
Re: Colt 1911 topology feedback
Thanks once again for the feedback @sacboi. This time I went with 0 in metallic on coating. I think compared to the previous one it's a progress but I'm still having trouble with the wooden grips. I guess I could try to smooth some parts of the knurling pattern, but I suppose I will have to replace it with a slightly… -
Question(s) about UVs..
Hey, my lovely Polycount community! I know it... we all hate UVs and it's a pain in the a**.. In the last weeks, I tried to learn UVs, smoothing groups to bake perfect normal maps, but I'm not really sure what I'm actually doing. I'm relative new to UVs and I hate them.... Here are some bakes: (I don't know if there are… -
porfolio piece creation
i have been browsing the net for like 2 days now, looking for something to do for my portfolio, i have mainly been looking for swords and daggers and armor of all sorts, i really want to show of some clean smooth lines in the hp,, cant seem to find something advanced enough, really want something with very hard smooth… -
How to expand your decal library ?
Hello. I wanted to ask how can I expand my decal library ? I have seen many people creating really great textures using a lot of decals. I am talking about leak, smooths, wear decals etc. They had really big pictures that containd for example set of 6 on 6 diffrent smooths/worn decals. My question is, how can you create… -
Re: Zbrush Decimation Master causing black areas in 3DsMax?
After decimating I always run a smooth deformation at a very low value (1-10) and spam the repeat to active button a few times. -
How to bake normal map for subdivision model
I need advice on how to properly bake a normal map for a subdivision model (not LP) because, if I create a normal map from HP on SubD (0), when I later apply level (2) to the SubD model, the UV map changes and the texture doesn't fit, not to mention the influence of the model not being triangulated. The type of subdivision… -
Re: Rookie moves you've corrected over time
I used to: Model using almost only extrusions and some bevels due to fear of having bad topology, avoiding triangles and ngons like plague. Now: I use chamfers, booleans, bevels and every tool and modifier I know to break the shape, prioritizing form over topology and making my life a lot easier when unwrapping. I used to:… -
Re: Why is it recommended to make all UV seams hard?
thank you for explaining this. :) I'm also wondering if I should even bother doing my bakes by splitting because I could just bake using averaged normals and just forget about the need to worry about uv splitting and having smoothing groups? I've had people tell me that I can just do this because of synced workflow due to… -
Re: Bake turned out wrong in Marmoset
Hi! I still have problems with my bake. I just can't understand why. I have separated all the other parts from the larger bars and I don't get pixels. I have redone the smoothing groups because I noticed they got messed up. The uvs have the same texel density. I have bake groups separated, I removed the instances... I have…
