Re: Shader - Mutiple Gradient Ramps stacked Vertically
All you do is get half-lambert and feed it in as U coord, then get your other value (however you want to select the gradient you want from the stack) and feed it in as the V coord to your ramp look-up. float NdotL = dot ( lightDir, normal ); // Lambert - we'll make it half-lambert when we feed it in as the U coord (i.e.… -
Hourglass shape - DOTA 2/Alien Swarm Particle Editor
Hey guys! I have been learning the particle tool that valve use for DOTA 2 particles. I'm stuck trying to achieve an hourglass shape in my particle: Technically I know what I want to do, but I'm not sure how to achieve it in this tool. What I want to do is modify the size of the particle the further away it gets from the… -
Need new virus software... sick of Norton
Well Nortons slows down my machine and it takes it sweet time to fully load my OS, cause it 's norton. I like to reformat my drive as needed and I'll buy need drives as needed. Norton acts like it's a separate pc if you activate on a new drive even if it's in your same case. Sick of this BS. That's not too bad because All… -
Re: Looking for retro games with an old rigging technique
Its not that they don't have skinning, its that the verts are weighted 100% to one bone. A lot the early 3D games from the original PlayStation used 1:1 skinning.

Re: Maya zPipeMaker Script
@Grimm_Wrecking Sounds like the Merge Vertex Command isn't set correctly for you grimm. I'll be adding in a settings thingamabob later, but for now you can open up the script and at line 631. it sayscmds.polyMergeVertex(fp_Name+".vtx[0:5000000]",d=0.5 ,am=1,ch=1) You can mess around with the part of that line where it says… -
Re: [UE4] Yorozuya Gin-Chan
Hey man, if you are still fighting this issue (even after using the correct Y orientation) there is a nice way to help fixing this. The specular input can also be used for microshadowing. Actually Epic even had plans to rename the slot to cavity^^ So what you can do is the following: -bake a cavity map with very high… -
Re: Lock weights in 3ds max
I think OP might be referring to the problem when working on 3/4 bone influenced verts where you get into a juggling situation when tweaking. Usually resolves into using the weight table or setting the weights in a specific order which avoids the problem. Imagine you give 1.0 to left leg, then 0.5 to hips, then you want… -
Re: Physically Informed Spec Value Library
Yes, this. Under no circumstances should linear values be represented as 0-255, or 'hex'. Safe to record sRGB either way. Also the sRGB/Linear equations EQ posted that came from me were in fact incomplete. The difference is small but here are corrected links (just edit L or S to compute what you want, ignore the graphs… -
Re: Baking of Cages
Hey, thanks for your reply! I tried to bake height map, but it gave me odd result (i baked in Marmoset Toolbag 3). Height distances: -0.5, 0.5 If lower height distance to: -0.01, 0.01 That's still not good, so i used instead of height map curvature map, which look that way Applying that to displacement channel and… -
