Re: [Unreal 4] Terrain Blending Tool (inspired by Star Wars: Battlefront)
For the landscape material, I use a Material Function that outputs a world-space material (in this case snow). I use this MF in the regular landscape material and in the "special" terrain blending material on the mesh. You're right, if you were to put this rock on a sand-landscape, snow would still show up at the… -
Re: Can Maya do transparency in the viewport?
It depends on what version of Maya you're using. In 4.5 the alpha's should show up automatically if they're in a 32-bit TGA. In 5.0 (and above, I think) you have to connect your texture to the transparency channel. Just drag/drop and you should be set to go. Transparency sorting has improved a bit in the later version...… -
Re: To the artists who have achieved this
Hey bud, I broke into the industry without having gone to school, and by just following tutorials. Its definitely doable. Its all about the portfolio and portfolio direction. Right now, your portfolio says "product rendering", which you could lean into. I'm not 100% sure but I'd assume someone who is good at producing… -
Techs (where you at?) rendering...
Okay so i find it strange i can not "stress" the p.c. i have out utilizing all of the aspects of the hardware, the img attached shows that noting or hardly anything is being used. What is the deal here (internally), software or driver-ly? One would think, "hey this pc's and the processes i am doing should utilize all… -

Also any help with the aliasing that is occurring would be great: In max im trying to configure my driver however it kept… -
Re: The Monthly CHARACTER Challenge | November 2014 | the Martial Artist
@Trawler Good job on the retopology, man. Looks great. I have seen some diff way of doing face topology though, with loops around her lower nose and her mouth as well. But yours should be fine as well. Side note; take your time, guys !! You can start December's challenge whenever you want. -
Re: Sketchbook: First Keeper
Wow! Elves really do have the word pointy written deep into their genetic code... you know... pointy ears, pointy nose, pointy hair, pointy eyebrows.... (take some air in) pointy armor... pointy armor decoration... (exhales) hehe I'm just kidding here. :) I really like how it looks. :) Awesome costume! :) -
Re: Alien Arena guns: New designs
Not bad at all, but do they fit the 'universe'? And another thing to keep in mind: they might have a good siluette for a 3rd person model, but the top looks kind of blank, even though this is the area that will be covering a lot of the screen space in 1st person mode. P.S.: I would much rather see an improvment in the… -
Re: Sketchbook: Alex Javor
A couple technical notes: To get multiple pieces of a mesh into Substance Painter as separate objects -- like eyes, nose, teeth, etc -- you have to assign each it's own material. Give the material the appropriate name as it will be associated with the mesh in SP. Also, has to have UV. But will seams matter that much? I… -
Re: parenting lights to camera?
You can drag your lights onto the sky object, and then use the scene turntable method. This way your model will move but none of the lights will. Your lights will also rotate around when you shift+drag too. Then use the scene rotation mode, should give you the same result as your solution but easier to set up.
