Re: Texturing dilemma...
Whatever works the best for whatever you're particularly doing. Of course it's great to be able to do both well. One thing to possibly keep in mind when working professionally (not portfolioly) is that there are things like production costs and time constraints, so it's best to work smart. (IE, I could manually spend time… -
Re: UDK: July 2012 Release - Synced Normals!
yeah bigjohn called it, as I said I dont want to turn this into a normal map witch hunt that some other threads turn into.

Re: Substance Painter - Master Thread
tbh I have to ask why bother? the only reason to use vertex colors over a texture mask is that you can't afford the mask texture. if you're doing it in painter then you're not paying for the mask texture - its all getting baked into the exported one. however.. iirc painter's vertex color and material ID bake masking are 1… -
Re: ZBrush - Hypothetical ultimate feature list
delete a subtool has no undo for instance, splitting meshes by groups etc a few actions warn you "this can not be undone" the biggest strengths of zbrush are also the core issues in many cases it is a 2.5 illustration tool, that allows you to manipulate the brushes/tools (hence the name), which was considered so powerful… -

Clothing pipeline in Games
Hi everybody. I am starting to try out marvelous designer for a character I am making. I get the advantages of using the simulator instead of manually creating clothing, since it makes a lot faster making creases, folds and should also be more accurate, but... I am not really sure on the complete pipeline... is it… -
Re: Rendering normal map information to lightmaps
A single lightmap is only 1.3 mb, a couple isn't going to be too much of a memory hog. I'm creating fairly enclosed environments so 3 1024s should give me fairly good lightmap resolution. Yeah, specular and normal maps per pixel is expensive on iPhone but I can make it really cheap if I bake the shadow information into the…
