Re: Workflow question: generating height/normal before Substance
Sorta, bit it doesn't work well . I tried to go that hi pass way . blur a bit and treshold dark lines and then add white value to initially highpassed picture ( right in my example) to isolate cracks only and clean small dots noise but it kills a half of tiny crack lines too. then I tried to expand /bevel what left of… -
Re: Why you should NOT trust 3ds Max's viewport normal-map display!
I can't post that example its under NDA :) The texture has changed from the OS map generated by max, but doesn't match the tangent map from maya, it's still very object-y looking. I'm not going to plough any more time into fiddling with this at the moment, I want to press on with the production work instead, confident that… -
Re: [WIP] Lisbon Street - Unreal Engine 5
Hi @d1ver Thank you for your feedback. It is very constructive and I really appreciate that you've gone through the extra mile measuring my lighting values and matching it up with really useful examples. I'll definitely take your advise and try to adjust my scene and will keep that in mind for future project as well. In… -
Re: Efficient Use of Texture Sheets
Right. So the reference isn't for any one specific item. I understand the principles of efficient UV use, but the reference is more for providing a visual example to other people. Good packing is easy to find, but getting examples of reuse is what is tripping me up. People are happy to reuse textures in modular environment… -
Re: UE5 project low poly asssets
Nice. It seems like it might be missing from some of the corners though. What do the BaseColor and AO look like on their own? For example (render / basecolor / occlusion): -

Re: Material Studies?
you can try learning by rough and smooth surfaces (glossy). This is base for classify a lot of materials, but of course, there are few exceptions like rubber materials, that can be smoothness but not necessarily have to emit or reflect the light like some glossy materials, cuz rubber materials absorve too much the light.… -
Re: Edge Constrain in Modo?
I'm was not being dismissive(english is not my first language, and never knew "shenaningans" could have such a negative connotation, and for that I apologize), I'm well aware of the flexibility of the system, it's just that after conducting a few experiments last night I started to get the conclusion that what could be a… -
Re: next gen woes?
Ive been diving into high poly now for a while teaching myself to model at high quality and I admit I dislike it . Spend a shit load of time cutting in detail that most people won't care about in the end . Doom 3 is a great example once the woe factor wore off on the graphics there wasnt much to the game play and so will… -
Re: Gina (critique welcome)
A detour or not, depending on how you look at it. I was trying to understand eye refraction. After finding some examples, attempted to recreate the effect... and it sort of looked correct. There was just that one issue I spent a good deal of forever chasing down. The whole thing distorts depending on whether you look along…
