Re: Interior environment crits please
[ QUOTE ] At my school they kinda drilled into us early that everything has to be welded and airtight, because of the previous unreal engine lighting...and my furniture really showed that my mindset was still there when making them. Floating geometry, or geometry "snapped" to each other isnt bad! From now on I will be… -
Re: toolbag 4 - ray tracing render shows UV seams
Sorry for the delayed response. The AO slot only darkens the diffuse ambient lighting in Toolbag for physically accurate reasons. Depending on your lighting setup (ie: if you have a lot of direct lights) it may not appear to have much of an effect. If lighting the scene with only the sky light, it's generally more… -
Re: RPG House - Hand painted textures
Off to a pretty good start, I love the ref you picked, awesome style. The textures on their own look pretty cool, nice work. Here are a few suggestions. 1) Door you can't get this done with tiles so some unique unwrap needs to be done. Probably float the door/step and pack them on their own sheet? You also need some kind… -
Re: Fantasy Tavern Take 2
What u have in both the early (cold vs warm) and the current versions is vague lighting. U want to create a clear, logical separation between the lit areas that would seem descriptive and feel inviting. Ask urself, if u just came into this tavern, where would u sit? hard to tell, right? it's cuz the lighting is indistinct.… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag - MASTER THREAD
Well, the way the lighting works in the viewer, there are no "lights" persay. All the lighting comes from a cubemap(HDR Image based lighting). Now theoretically you could create any sort of lighting environment you want, but its a bit more of a pain to actually go about doing it(someone documented thier process a bit… -
Re: Rendering out lightmaps for walk-around models
Lightmapping usually doesn't preserve high-frequency details like rivets. The UVs usually have to be unique for all the meshes in the whole scene, so the lightmap pixels get real large real fast. Unless you use gigantic lightmaps. What you could do is convert the normalmap into an ambient occlusion map, and multiply this… -
Re: Looking for critique of a 3D Japanese Onsen Environment
Hey man, I think your night time lighting could use a lot of work (particularly in the images). The contrast between the lighting and the rest of the environment is making it so my eyes are instantly attracted to the very bright lights, and I'm not looking at the rest of the environment, which is too dark to see if I try… -
Re: Ninja Girl [Finished] : Trepan's WorkThread
@lotet Thanks lotet :) Yeah, I should probably change the ground texture, you are right :/ About the rim light, I was trying to find a lighting that looks "good" on every angle for the 3D viewer you know :( But for the beauty shot, you are right I should've done a different lighting, I'll maybe change it later, I'm so… -
Re: RGCA - best animation/best use of iclone - Direx

First, I show you a short clip, so you can watch my torchlight in action ...… -
Re: Core's Office
[EDIT] I feel kind of stupid right now, as I totally passed over the screenshot that showed you're indeed using pt lights as fills and the skylight, silly me! Bottom advice is probably null and void, oh well. :) You could also up the actual intensity of the light bounces that are baked (I think in the lightmass settings),…
