Re: SOLVED: Creating a clean colour ID map?
Yeah I was experimenting with some tight layer and curves controls but trying to isolate colours proved very difficult and it certainly wasn't automatable. Edit: To expand . . I figured that if using 128 in Threshold was enough to give me a small range of colours, being able to use multiple increments of that at the same… -
Re: Blending Hi-poly Normal Maps with 2D Normal Maps
If you want to blend two normal maps together: 1. Half the intensity of your blue channel on the top layer (make it go to 128 max instead of 256) 2. Set top layer to overlay 3. Merge layers 4. Renormalize Works perfectly for me. If you forget to lower the intensity of the blue layer, you'll destroy any info from your… -
Re: First Environment Texture
I would say that you should lower the intensity of your normal map on your textures.

If you don't have Photoshop, you can download a… -
Re: beating the summer heat (warning: there's balls in here)

Re: Low Poly Texturing

You need your uvs laid out properly though. For painting… -
Bake AO of multi-texture object ?
