I was curious if anyone knew how to save/export render layers in maya to be used with out projects? Pain in the arse to keep making them each time when you always need an ambient occlusion etc. Thanks!
When i load my mesh (OBJ) and Baked normal map (PNG) into the NDO project creator and select 'Create new Project' all i get is my normal PNG on a locked background layer?
Like someone said already: This is a very, very broad subject. Some advice though: -Learn the blend modes. Basicly there are five categories (in Photoshop): a lighten group, a darken group, a contrast group, a math group and a HSB group - in that order. All blend modes can be useful - even Hard Mix which some ppl have a…
Another update to this project incoming! Since the last post I've focused mainly on getting the cobblestone road look less tiled, including a mix of vertex painting and splitting up the piece into different material sets. Aside from that I have worked on the main arch house kit, tweaking material stuff and adding another…
Hey guys, I don't know if this is stupid or not, but I'm trying to make a layered material that blends 3 materials using a simple RGB texture mapped to UV Channel 3. The idea is to use to the 3rd uv channel to define which material to display ingame: If anyone has a better idea on how to do this more easily, I'm all ears.…
Hi currve! Thanks for the question. DDO actually finds all the colors (as can be seen in the ID Link Editor) but some of the materials are not generated simply because they are not part of that specific material preset. To make sure all IDs get their own base layers upon generation, make sure to check "Create base layers"…
Definitely coming along, nice! The only thing really getting to me is that the normal map seems to be carrying all the weight of the damage while the diffuse still looks relatively clean. One thing that helps me is in PS have your normal layer sitting over you diffuse layer and drop the opacity of the normal layer to about…
At work we need to convert a scene from 3DSMax - Vray to Cinema 4D - Corona.For this we bought a script from 3DtoAll, but it does not keep the VrayProxies.So I thought I could easily do this automated in Maxscript, but am failing. Maybe someone is up for helping me? Basically at the moment I want to addthe reimported Mesh…
Painter 2019.1.2 Exporting my textures exports only normals from layers and not the base normal. I have to use OpenGL. The normal channel is active and the Normal mixing is set to Combine. Project configuration is set to Normal Map Format: OpenGL. Any help appreciated.
