Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 4
I solved my issue by turning off local transformations, I'll just leave this post here in case anyone runs into this. So I was attempting a different sort of workflow using insert multi mesh brushes, and I ran into an issue where when i would try to snap the orientation of the brush it would be rotated at an off angle like… -
Re: Toolbag 3.04 Beta - feedback
Hi Joe, i will mail the support if the shadow catcher problem occurs on my next project.I just tested it on my old projects and it works. To the glossy issue i have / viewport vs marmoset viewer, i found out that the completley diferent look comes from the Render setting: "use local refractions". This settings looks so… -
Re: Serious trouble understanding the workflow "Low to high to low Poly"
Personally I tend to keep separate parts as individual subtools so that I can locally subdivide them, and save retopology and UV'ing until after the sculpt is done. Use Decimation Master on it first to cut the size down. If you're baking in a program like xnormal, you can have several individual models loaded up at the… -
Re: Normals, UV's and Round Edges
Are you using a cage in xNormal? In Maya you can easily create one by selecting the lowpoly and then going into the Render tab > Transfer Maps > Load the mesh at the top. Then in the drop-down menu for "Envelope" select "Both". Now give it a low value like 0,1 and select the envelope mesh in the Outliner and export it. You… -
Re: I Need Pointers on Form, Lighting and Stuff
Muddiness in colour is what happens when the colour scheme is tinted, rather than correctly choosing the correct local colours based on the light source colour. Though honestly you shouldn't be worrying about light and colour as your form issues really are what you should be focusing on right now. If you don't understand… -
Re: Frustrated and jealous! rock sculpting help!
Oh good Lordy no, I'm not that crazy! I was just saying that the first half doesn't look rocky because my brush had Topological on, but I got an interesting pattern in a localized area which remind of geological build up, kinda like the Elevation Maps you see. Infact, I got a very similiar bake on map which reminds me of… -
Re: Student Loan Forgiveness of 2012
Bitching about it is really the only thing that we can do to help fix it. Unless one of us is also a member of the House or Senate (which would be awesome), we're only capable of talking about it, raising awareness of the bullshittery, creating petitions, calling local politicians, etc. :thumbup: There won't be a fix… -
Re: CWC 2007
Well, I guess it doesn't help that I go out to the driving range at the local golf course most weekends to unleash on some golf balls when I need to release. Though my housemate (who's Fiji Indian) keeps trying to convince me to have a round in the nets sometimes. He has all the cricket gear and shit, but can never get off… -
Re: UDK -Cube Maps
some of the cubemaps are created with world coords in mind, some are created with view or local coords in mind. Its all abut what setting you use in your vector transform node. Cityscape, I believe, is a view space map. If that's the only one you're going to use, then just change your vector transform node. If you're using… -
Re: Crap artist can't get job, whines about it
Hey guys, this thread is very timely. I've been asked to consult at the local university for a game dev/art major/course-list they want to create. I'm going to point the admins to this thread, I've already made a list of things I want to discuss with them. I'd love to know what the other vets on the forum think we can do…
