Hey guys! First post on polycount! I Wanted to share this piece, I hope you like it! Introduction I love games like Dead Island or Requisition VR. For this portfolio piece I wanted to get inspired by the crafty, impossible yet believable weapon designs of these games. What better than C4 attached to something like a…
Is it possible to use texture blending or multitexturing in maya with a cgfx shader? So far, I figured out that I could use the layered texture node to blend between two textures, but all the tutorials Ive seen, have then put the output on a lambert material, and I want to use a Cgfx shader... does it makes sense? I tried…
Greetings all! I have been taking some time to practice hand painting textures and making tileable textures out of them. Here's two textures I have done recently, I will be doing a rock texture next to keep practicing my hand painting techniques. The wood texture is a combo of zbrush and photoshop picked up from Jeff…

I am trying to use animated textures using the uvmap method by having multiple maps of a character's face with different emotions on one texture sheet. Problem is I textured the character in Blender at 1024x1024 res before exporting to Gimp and creating the multiple animated maps on the same textured sheet.The sheet size…
Hi there and a happy new year to all! My problem is regarding creating a texture in Zbrush using Polypaint. I followed the tutorial- http://eat3d.com/free_zbrush_xnormal_pipe Which basically shows you how to create a polypaint texture into a diff use texture using Xnormal for use in Photoshop. By following the tutorial i…
You also have to keep in mind that a vehicle in comparison to say, a person, has ALOT more square footage hence a space vehicle thats 10-20 times as big as a person is going to look a lot more low res up close than a person at the same distance, if both are using say one 2k texture map each. You could migrate this factor…
It was a very common technique once with combining multiple neighboring objects in a single, often non-square texture for a sake of having one shared distant LOD object in systems using hierarchical lods or lod grouping . Still works with that logic and good for mobile games for sure but AAA games moved toward UDIM…
Hi! I'm happy to have finally joined Polycount. One of the reasons I decided to join was to team up with a texture artist or a group to create TF2 items with. I've been working with TF2 for a while to learn the ins and outs of modifying its game content, while also learning how to create 3d models with blender in my spare…
Hi All! I was wondering whether anyone could give me some advice as to how I can compile my textures into one big sheet for use in a game? I'm working on meshes for an indie strategy game at the moment, so lots and lots of little buildings. They're planned with the same overall modular style, so many different models will…
