Re: Set of Oblivion Weapons.
Will it still work in maya? I thought they had to be squared off. and no more black area... and how do I know if the ration is 1:1? The checkers will look the same all the way around the model? What is a local map? Why are there so many maps? Texture, UV, diffuse, spec, blah blah blah... -
Re: Ancient Modular Wall
Looks pretty cool. What's the texture resolution? What maps are you using, diffuse, spec and normal? What kind of viewport shader are you using? The moss or ivy seems to be over ridden by the normal map? Also there are some shadows that don't seem to make sense, I wonder if they're spots on the normal map? -
Re: Old Coke Vending Machine
Thanks a lot for the feedback guys. I appreciate every last drop of it. I tweaked the saturation, tried to improve my spec map and added some lights in the scene to bring the textures out more. I will post the updated flats tomorrow morning when I have more time. Crits are still welcome. -
Re: Sketchbook: Daniel Conroy
Thanks for posting Ged, I'd say texture is my weakest area so I'm glad you liked them the most lol. The Mini does have a Spec I'm guessing its not doing enough, I have no clue about reflection maps though I'll have a look into getting one to work. -
Re: HK UMP .45
nice! i enjoy this alot. My only small suggestion is, play with the spec just a bit more. You started to put in dull spots where the hand would go ect ect. Marmoset seems to blast that away tho, so might need to get a bit more heavy handed with it? lovely bakes. -
Re: Crevice/dirt map generation
I do like Crazybump's method, feed it a normal map and it outputs a very cool map (with Sharpen & Flatten at 97, since 99 produces weird noisy artifacts), which has "raised" edges highlighted and crevice edges darkened. Useful for overlaying onto spec maps to pick out the highs and darken the cracks. -
Re: Video card advice for 3D apps
alyen: You have your answer for compatibility (nVidia), if you are going to spend the money it'd be worth doing a bit more research and advice from hardware-specific forums, such as http://icrontic.com/forum/ They will make sure you purchase the optimal card for your budget and taking into account your current system specs. -
Re: To Quadro or not?!
A Boxx is flippin' pricey and much as I love it, I didn't need it and shouldn't have bought it :P I could have got a topend PC for probably £1000 less and still been happy. Still, I guess I'm pretty future-proofed spec-wise. That's my consolation :) ~P~ £3k BTW! -
Re: WIP - End of the Alleyway
This is looking much better then your first post. You've got some weird shadows happening on the wall. And the spec on your garbage can, the silve one, looks a little too intense - that is also a mighty thick garbage can.. I would also bevel the corners of the plastic garbage bin. Keep working hard! :) -
