Re: Unreal Modular Asset Seams
The lighting is most likely doing that because of how the two objects are treated during the light building process. It lights the three walls as three separate objects and will leave an odd lighting seam. Using the merge feature in UE4 or placing an object (like a post or what have you) on the seam solves it usually.… -
Re: Summer Character Workshop - the SwordMaster
Finally! After a week of being bedridden with the flu I've, finally, managed to come back to the computer :) I've had some UV issues, but I think I've managed to solve most of them. And fingers crossed.... Maya won't mess them up again. After gettings some ok bakes, I've seen some areas where I'll need to add some polys to… -
Re: How to draw character shadow maps?
Ok Amsterdam, I took your advice to the best of my ability. Though the position of the sun had me slightly concerned. The characters are being lit on the right so the sun would be outside the picture. I took your advice of the vanishing points being both on the horizon and underneath literally, assuming that was the… -
Re: David's Modeling and Environment Art
Thanks again guys. Hopefully this update solves the tiling and repetition problems, or is at least helping. I finished the strut/support asset, and I'm in the process of putting pipes everywhere. I seem to have my emissive bleeding into my lightmap channel? There is plenty of padding, weird. It might just be an AA issue. I… -
Re: Masking methods for grout/tiling texture
Managed to find the issue in Xnormal :) It seems the "edge padding" setting was set to high which caused the brick color to "drown" the grout color. Also, my grout texture consisted of 2 polygroups which actually splitted the mesh in 2 seperate ones. I collapsed them together and reloaded them and voila: Really thanks a… -
Re: Round 2: Self Model
Hey guys, another update, I've added some lights and a pedestal, but I'm still having problems with the seams around the arms and neck. In this photo my model is all the exact same color, and you can clearly see the seams, I though maybe my smoothing groupers where causing the problem, but I reset them and the problem… -
Re: Heroes that need LOD0 item poly budget improvements
A bit out the theme, but i'd like to see opportunity to add solid item sets. Without breaking on different parts with one texture map and one poligonal budget. This will give a lot of space for creativity and solve all "budget problems". Especially this is actual after latest drop-system changes, since players now receive… -
Re: Fantasy Cavern City CE3
The ocean reflection I mean (I thought screen space reflection was the term, but now I'm thinking I'm mistaken). According to the crydev forums moving my project to 3.3.9 may solve my issue. I'll definetaly try that aa stuff though too. Thanks for the comments guys! The city is only as fleshed out as needed to create an… -
Re: Where do I even begin?
There's the monthly noob challenge on Polycount! http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119077 I'm a total beginner too and just jumping in with this month's challenge now that I have a basic sense of Maya's UI (just opening it was nearly enough to put me off). I'm finding it really helpful just looking up… -
Re: UV shells stuck together! Maya 2016
I'd love to know too! I sometimes get it from other peoples' imported models (probably always FBX). Instead of resetting prefs, just detach the offending faces into a new object and combine again. I've never reset preferences for this issue, I can't even think of what's in there that would cause or be solved by this. I'm…
