Re: Max 2020 and Zbrush 2019
I use Styx purely for transfering just the mesh so I never use it for polygroups/polypainting. The power of it for me is that it preserves the scale perfectly every time.....forever..... :D essentially giving me the power of Zbrush's tools within Max. It effectively combines Max/Zbrush into a single application because… -
Re: Why does ZBrush suddenly care if I have tri's?
It's not suddenly caring; you could never reconstruct levels below one with triangles. It's not so much a polygon reduction technique as it is reverse subdivision. If there was anything to reconstruct, your mesh would have been currently all quads (the triangle being 3 quads). Once it hits topology like that, it would have… -

Re: How to create Point Light Maps?
I had the same question after reading through their character texture guide. I work in Maya, but once I've got my High and Low poly models ready for texturing, I usually start by baking out Normal and AO maps in xNormal. I've had much better results there than using Maya's 'Transfer maps.' Using Maya to render out a Point… -
Re: RPG House - Hand painted textures
@ 7, Its a way to transfer your tile work to a unique unwrap of your building. Kind of like this. The model on the left is unwrapped to UV1 to make good use of the tiles, when you look at the UV's they're a jumbled, stacked mess but it works really well with the tiles. It doesn't look all that bad, but it lacks unique… -

Re: [UE5] Lost Between Worlds
I still haven't recorded a video, I'm adding finishing touches to the scene before the final render and have started working on prop showcase scenes, but in a nutshell it's like this: on separate layers, I paint a branch and all the leaves with masking tools - completely manually, by hand. Then I use those masks as anchors… -
Re: [Finished!] ComEng V-Set Train.
Current progress: Quickly brought the windows in-engine, and also put together the beginnings of a decal sheet for all the lettering and stuff. This is an RGBA set of packed masks, each channel corresponding to a colour parameter in-shader. This lets me re-use and re-colour elements such as the logo, which appears multiple…
