Re: Hominid Project
Okay! First I want to compliment you again on how good it looks! I wouldn't be writing a critique this if your work wasn't this nice, and I'm looking forward your to next pieces. I've got pretty much only anatomy pointers. I tried to color-code so they're easier to read but the text colors are changing once posted, haha.… -
Re: Please let me know what you think of my WIP
I've simplified the concept because I don't understand the code at a super low level. It's still the same object during the whole process. Polygon models have indices of verts, edges, faces and so on, each component has an ID number and a value (and secondary values, like vertex color or skin weights). The history nodes… -
UV Squashing in Borderlands 2 on masks for color tints.
I wanted to share something I came across while looking at models and textures from Borderlands 2. There is a 3D model called WreckedVan that is used all over the game. It comes with a 2048 diffuse map and a second packed mask texture. The size might seem large for 2012 but given that it was standard practice to give… -
Re: Sketchbook: Zetheros
No lowpoly yet, but more polish. Replaced the internals with synthetic digestive organs protected by a removable internal panel. Added rivets and hooks. This is a great example of how functionality drives aesthetics. Everything is designed with intention and not because it "just looks cool", and the art is better served… -
Re: UDK - Material - Mutli-UV Changes
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I tried that unfortunately, UDK has a example custom node which has a UV and Sampler slots in it's Compendium webpage. http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/MaterialsCompendium.html#CustomTexture Problem is, you need to use a Custom node for the textures to get it to work, and the output for some… -
Re: Nvidia Control Panel
making your own is a bit on the 'easier said than done' side - i'm not exactly well versed in driver authoring but my surface level understanding is that it's a bit of a black box as far as Nvidia are concerned. AMD opensource their linux drivers but afaik not the windows ones. if we're doing conspiracy theories (facts)… -
Re: Buying Perpetual "Substance" License
Steam version is non-transferable, as it falls under the software subscription version. I am looking for something compatible with the 'Directive 2009/24/EC Article 4(2) Case C-128/11 UsedSoft vs Oracle' if interested in the legal details. EU only, I know that it does not apply to any other location, but for my usage that… -
Re: Shape splattering with a random to non-random gradient?
Yeah, evolution does happen. Still Substance Designer imo is an example of what could be perfectly artist friendly with just a little bit more conveniences here and there and less "program everything on your own" concept. Convenient 2d transform gizmo like in Photoshop with ability to scale precisely around chosen screen… -
Code syntax coloring added
Code syntax coloring has been added. Use the Format dropdown to make a Code block, then paste your code into it. Code block features: * Colored syntax. * Line numbers. * Row shading. * Horizontal scroll if a line is really long. * Sorry no vertical scroll, wishlist item. -
Re: Textures from Substance Designer not displaying correctly in UE4
SOLUTION Ok! I found the real cause of the problem. The real cause is that Designer is exporting the Textures out at 16bit. Even if you set the Output Format to 8 Bits per Chanel it gives not a flying cluck. The real solution is annoying still a pretty hacky fix, but it works none the less. The solution is to put a node in…
