I found this image of a diffuse and a spec map while reading through the vertex 2 magazine and I had some questions about spec maps. I was wondering how they are created as well as how they would be applied in maya? I tried looking it up and I was told that you are supposed to invert the diffuse color for nonmetallic…
Hi, I wanted to ask if this is possible where u can select some faces using a black and white map like the Vol. Select modifier in 3dsmax. Is there anything like this in Blender?

Hello all, When I have my model in Maya or 3Ds Max I have no discrepancies or problems along the UV islands on my model.

The thing is when I go to use the 'tilde' key (~) to move the canvas about so i can fill in the gaps it doesn't let me. Anybody know what could be wrong or if anyone has experienced this. It's so frustrating :|
Would the glass just be a normal map with specular? -But how would you achieve that distortion/noise? If the glass is the normal map, how would you have the gaps between the green/blue hexagons and the holes within them as a normal map? (do you simply add 2 normal maps in material editor in UE4?) Thank you. It overlays on…
I noticed when playing GW2 that when looking at one of the legendary greatswords (ex: [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SbWI7WQD_TA"]Sunrise[/ame]) that a photo image within moves around when you move the character. Would anyone have an idea as to how they were able to do this?

Want to share one method of creating simple signs when you don't know vector graphics or don't like it. It's kinda strange and stupid, but it works. 1. Model a sign. I used Plasticity for that. It…
