Re: TDS "Equalizer" - Fractured Space
I experimented with using them but they seemed to be causing more issues than solving them, so I opted for making two texture sheets (one for metals, one for non-metals) that have the normal map details in the same sheet as the tiling texture. -
Re: AWAITING CONFIRMATION: Pipeline problem: ddo to 3do !!
Thanks Miroxs, Would it be possible to try 1.6 and see if this issue persists? A bug with non base 2 texture sizes was fixed in this version and might solve the issue for you. If not, let us know and we will be happy to troubleshoot this more in-depth with you. - Teddy -
Re: 3ds Max 2012 & 2015 Normap Map Viewport Issues
Some screenshots with the problems would be nice, as well as the baked maps - issues will get identified and solved faster. The quick fix for most discrepancies between max baker and max viewport is adding an Edit Normals on top of your mesh (and not changing anything) then collapsing. -
Re: Weird baking artifact
While I agree that making a tilable section of rope would have been a better idea, I think that just changing the projection distance will solve your problem. In Substance Painter it's the "Max Frontal/Rear Distance" parameter, try something smaller. -
Re: Mental Ray Lightning problems. 3D Max.
Did you read this topic in the Help? Might give you some tricks to solve it. http://docs.autodesk.com/3DSMAX/15/ENU/3ds-Max-Help/index.html?url=files/GUID-39E321E5-962B-49C2-BD05-B1FA3F48BA26.htm,topicNumber=d30e354555 -
Re: Inverted colors in normal
So you have a cage, in which case, it cannot be intersecting faces. So my next best guess is inverted normals/face of the model and/or inverted UV shells. Try resetting your XForm on the low before baking, it should solve the issue. -
Re: Reference image too dark in 3ds Max
Thanks, Joopson! I went to "Gamma and LUT" in "Preference Settings" and I turned off "Enable Gamma/LUT correction". This has apparently solved the problem, because I can see the image clearly. Thanks, mates, for your help and attention. :smile: -
Re: Red Dead Redemption Techs
mip maps on veg...depending on engine (that ole caveat)...its very important usually to get a good and consistent texel density to start with that and having the code LOD the mips at the correct distance/ angles anistropic solve so many of these issues i miss it... :-( -
Re: Question: Lowpoly + Painted Texture > Optimal smoothing group
some of those edges they are handling with alpha. They did a cool idea of using alpha for the outline corners. Not sure how they solve that tho. Perhaps the player never rotate the camera? The 2nd DOES have a hard edge, it's just antialiasing of the screenshot that makes it smooth. -
Re: Baking and handling normal artifact
You are right, this solves the issue. Thx! Just to note that the dilation here is the padding between UV shells, I have to set it to around 8px (assuming a 2K texture map). And SP by default will export textures with infinite dilation for reasons mentioned above.
