Re: Procedural heightmaps for surface displacement
I do understand how to apply a map to a plane, like this, but it's a whole different beast using a heightmap to create geometry. For example, from this heightmap: http://unigine.com/articles/130605-procedural-content-generation/full/19_oilrush_canyons_side_heightmap.jpg How you can create the circular geometry found here:… -

Re: Ship a game,here's your pink slip

Re: How to fake 3D through 2D in Construct, Unity, or other Game Engine
I think the term you're looking for is 2.5D (as in a space, like 2D or 3D).

Re: Baking Normals Topic: Cages. Are they old news?
@Devon M This one works in Maya. I can't remember who made it, but it sits on my shelf and I use it constantly. It's in MEL: string $objList[] = `ls -sl -o`; string $uvBorder[]; string $edgeUVs[]; string $finalBorder[]; for ($subObj in $objList) { select -r $subObj; polyNormalPerVertex -ufn true; polySoftEdge -a 180 -ch 1… -
