UV Squashing in Borderlands 2 on masks for color tints.
I wanted to share something I came across while looking at models and textures from Borderlands 2. There is a 3D model called WreckedVan that is used all over the game. It comes with a 2048 diffuse map and a second packed mask texture. The size might seem large for 2012 but given that it was standard practice to give… -

Re: UDK vs unity and whats the most next gen looking game on unity?
Assuming you're doing things yourself, I'd recommend Unity. Its much easier to rapidly iterate a useful product even if you're "doing it wrong".

Does the new Vanilla forums accept HTML5 videos links or iframe code?
Recently, I've found HTML5 to be a better option than displaying loopable animation gif files. (Smaller sizes, increased resolution) Would html5 video links from other hosts be supported? (i.e Gfycat, your own server, etc). When pasted, they appear as a text link rather than a video. Maybe I'm just inputting the wrong… -

The only way to work with maya 2016 - is to roll back to the standard OpenGL or DX11 mode. But in this case I get many other problems like… -
Some workflow/nanite questions coming from UE4
Coming to UE5 from UE4 and have a few questions regarding modular sets and nanite. If I have an exterior building wall set that is going to be brick, is it better to use a height map to displace the mesh in ZBrush/Blender, then use nanite on those modular pieces?

Re: Transparency with ColladaMax and CgFX?
Ah - cool to hear that ShaderFX is helpful! You can set the blend mode by selecting the standard material node and then choosing the blend mode you want from the drop-down box on the right that's labeled "Blend Mode." If you're making a custom FX shader for your artists to use, I'd recommend using three separate techniques… -
Re: Text Node blending?
You will need to create multiple text node node and blend them together with multiple blend nodes. If you have a grayscale text node, then be sure to change the blending mode of the blend mode to something like "add" or "max".
