So, I've been reading a bunch of threads and discussions, googling for hours now, looking for a way to replicate an anisotropic surface inside UE4. The answer so far is basically: none of the shaders in UE4 support this. This seems to be somehow related to deferred rendering (is it true? why?) You must code your own shader…
Polyboost has projection-paint, too. Never tried it so far, though. Seems limited to viewport resolution and quite basic alltogether. But worth a try perhaps. As a sidenote I started to write a projection-paint script for max last year.(Similar to Zapplink ). Unfortunately the emphasis lies on started. I have hardly any…
When did you play? It was extremely busy today, usually 10-20 people online the whole time, right up until about a half hour before I posted this when my router seemed to buckle from the traffic. Sundays, for some reason are always the busiest day of the week. Not sure why you couldn't see servers with the Linux…
VR standalone is pretty much in PS2-3 era of optimization. Number one reason of VR performance hit are the badly handled UI and Code. 100+ individual UI textures being called instead of atlased for example. As for 4k 8k, general guide is 2k for 3rd person and 4k for FPS. It gets interesting depending on company workflow…

Continued some with the roundtable room. Added in an old knight model. Updated the web build hosted on itch. Some screenshots: I decided to get…

KP: This is the base layer set up I have for guns. I'll delete a folder I don't need, but it pretty much covers the majority of what will pop up for me. Like I said I only color code major groups. I don't bother with trying to color code individual layers except red in which case they'll probably be deleted anyways. I'm…
You might find a 40% split board to be a pain in the arse if you're working in modelling apps etc. I can't come up with a good layout that supports writing code and operating the wide range of apps I use regularly (eg. I want alt on the right half of the board for typing but need it on the left for Maya) Also - where do…

I had an idea for a way to create wavy sand. Heres where I'm starting. It's pretty terrible but it'll do for this example. I'm assuming that you don't know anything so I don't leave anything out. Sorry if some of this is stuff you already know. What we're going to do is do some UV distortion to introduce some eddies into…
