Re: Interarms Walther PPK - WIP
Finally got some more time to work on my PPK. Some of the work have been on small details on both high and lowpoly model. I have created a more efficient UV layout and the same pixel density over all UV islands. Playing around with some wear and dirt using substance painter smart mask and then paint over to add or remove… -
Re: WIP environment props/character models
May want to up the resolution of the texture on the walls, it seems to have a far lower pixel density than the floor. It also seems 'dirtier', if you know what I mean. Also, on the floor texture, not sure if it's already got lighting on it, if so, I'd try and get rid of that. I will assume the chairs (not stools) are… -
Re: TOWER - Mothership
@putka, yes, padding is needed, the reason it looks so packed in my UV is because the UV is prepared for large atlases such as 2k to 4k, i still leave 2-4 px padding but it cant be seen with big textures like this. anyway, if the textures are happened to scale down, what i usually do is to manually touch up the UV just a… -
Re: UDK Material Reflection behaviour similar to Marmoset?
The specular node is a parameter that is tied to the analytic lighting that gets calculated for every light in the scene. Environment maps are a hack to fake global illumination, they have nothing to do with the analytic lights. You need some way to squeeze the contribution of the environment map into the final pixel… -
Re: Crysis demo
Per, sounded like you played it run-and-gun sytle? I never had an encounter from 10-pixel distances other than to mark them with my binocs. And I found the suit + weapon menu's to be really easy and fast to use. I can go from Strength to Speed insanely quickly. I guess that comes from being use to the radial-menu style of… -
Re: Maya viewport 2.0 depth pass?
i don't think you can. I think its intended as a replacement for current viewport and not so much as a traditional renderer that will give you passes for comping. im speculating here but you could try to set up a play blast that renders off screen . then a depth pass in mental ray with the same resolution as the play blast… -
Re: Stone Giant Tech Demo (Image heavy)
If I understood correctly, such an abrupt transition never occurs. Since tesselation occurs based on screen space the low poly meshes gets tesselated only where it's needed, in a way that you pretty much have the same number of tris on screen at any given time (1 tri/8 pixels as PixelGoat stated). So I assume all meshes… -
Re: Tarascus
Helios, when I took a look at it, I was actually surprised to find out it had a normal map or a specular map at all. It looked like a basic hand-painted color texture with nothing else. I'd really suggest giving what Chris said a try, because right now it's so soft and easy to miss that all the extra work you put into it… -
Re: FINAL: Scar Predator (Download is here!)
I chose progressively darker brown colours and layed them down with a hard-edged paintbrush in a splotchy pattern, then added little black spots everywhere. Then used a 1-pixel brush to add random little dots of light blue to make it look a bit wetter and shiny. Still need to do more of those - that whole area needs more… -
Re: Flakk Cannon - WIP
Haha thanks, I'm really proud of it. Took a couple tries to get it perfect, but on the final layout I had like 5-6 pieces that just wouldn't fit, but I refused to give up cause I was so close and spent like 30 mins tweaking and shifting stuff until they could finally squeak in and everything would have at least an 8 pixel…
