Hey! So I'm making my second ever 3D Character, and it will be rigged and used for VRChat so I need the inside of the mouth to be textured and modeled. I saw about as many people saying to sculpt with open mouth, as I saw people doing the opposite, both with good arguments.I went with closed mouth, and as I'm about to…
Hey all, I'm hoping to get some help here after 3 days of painstaking research into this issue. So I'm working for a company that's getting signed on for a project involving project-map graphics and animations on a mannequin (in the real world with a projector). We're using Watchout 6 to project the graphics and we'll have…
first of all im sorry maybe i sound like an idiot asking this im quite new on this PBR thingy and just wondering how do most people bake a fake hole on their low poly ?? i mean albedo/diffuse map shouldn't contain any shadow information ,right ?
I have an alternative that both solves the skewing issue and works on all sides. It relies on having 2 lowpoly with matching uv and making use of an object/worldspace normalmap. For the sake of comparison we're going to look at bakes from 4 lowpoly and a highpoly with repeating details. A: Default B: Copy of your weighted…
If you go the baking route, and assuming that you are using a realistic rendering style like what is done by default in all modern game engines, it means that the surface detail of the final asset will look just like that of your screenshot. Meaning that you will still have to put in a *lot* of work to get rid of the…
Hi! Hm, interesting that you checked in Max but normals are flipped in the fbx. A simple way to check, would be to re-import the exported fbx and check that everything looks as intended. Since its normals define in what direction a face is looking, I would say flipping faces and flipping normals describes the same outcome.…
The biggest problem here is you've got holes and gaps in your mesh. The renderer doesn't know what to do with this sort of data, and its going to raycast onto something random. In your "This is how it should be" example, you have those pink normals which are just facing in some random direction, both methods you show there…
What channel are you looking at? 'Mesh Maps -> Normal' would be the bake. This is what I see in your attached file: But what does your current shading look like, low poly with normal map applied? I would work on the asset looking at that. What you're looking to learn from the normal map channel? I only check the normal map…
I'd like some help from the community, if you have a minute! Could you bake normal maps from these models in the software you're familiar with? * 3ds Max [done] * Maya * Blender * Substance [done] * Toolbag * 3D-Coat * Cinema 4D * Houdini * Modo * Xnormal [done] * Knald * (others?) The intent is to show the baked result in…
I have a weird Painter behavior where it change flat to smooth shading on decimated Zbrush hi poly object , It makes the baked normal map sort of blurry vs Designer or Blender bakers . Does anyone know a trick to workaround it ? Painter writes: [Scene 3d] [FBX] mesh normals are invalid (some values are null) and will be…
