In this next stage, we are going to import the model into 3DXchange and create sub-props out of the components. On the left we see the various components we created. In SketchUp, front and back faces are separated, so each component is listed twice. In high-quality SketchUp models you can dispense with the back faces, but…
For those of you who are confused, here is a basic shader that you can use to get your foot in the door for physically based shading. As you can see, it doesn't even cost much more instruction count wise then the dreadful default phong shader. To make it easy to implement and re-use I suggest you do as I did and implement…
In terms of stability both film and games are in a reeeeeaaaally scary place right now and competitiveness is through the roof and then some. If you're in a position of stability right now then it might be worth it to think about focusing on where you'd like to land a few years down the road and take this time to build a…
If the rotation isn't applied to the mesh you can work in local axis mode by either selecting it in the transform orientation dropdown in the viewport header or by pressing the axis shortcuts twice if you leave it as global. It works even when you constrain the scaling to two axis by pressing shift+axis letter. Example:…
Might as well add mine back in: Note: This one can be used with either the variation selector mode Brush Modifier turned on or off, depending on if you want randomization. --DOWNLOAD-- --DOWNLOAD--
Marmoset needs alpha maps to be in the diffuse map's alpha channel saved as a 32bit uncompressed TGA. Also change the blend mode of the material to "Alpha", though it seems to work with "None" as well...
As a side note, is there some new feature with colour coded verts? Some verts (When they show) are bright blue and bright red, while some are burgundy and dark blue. SPITTY: no luck :\
