By "google fu" I mean googling when I encounter issues or to search for tutorials for things I wanted to do with my site. I'm no web developer/coder so I had to google a lot to get what I wanted or for reference. Underscores is a base wordpress theme that gives you a well made "Core" to make a proper theme out of. Zero…
Important ask❗-> I need your professional help. I’m a final-year student, researching the realities of augmented AI tools in optimising UE5 shader pipelines for large scale projects, specifically AAA scale. It’s the last home stretch towards submitting, and it’s important to me for everyone to have their say in; “Are you…
Anybody have an idea if Loop mode or Ring mode selection is possible in the Unwrap UVW modifier? Similar to the "PolyTools" "RingModeToggle" and "PolyTools" "LoopModeToggle"
Hello :smile: Have a problem :( First I start a new NDO-Project. Then I import my mesh and the baked Normal Map (from my High-Poly-Model). When the project is created then, I create a multi normal layer. Then I press the button at "NDO Painter Mode". Then 3DO opens itself. Don't know why but I have no painting mode. Just…
Working on a new version of an environment I have previously made, now I'm better at this kind of thing. Inspiration comes from the Data Core in FEAR: Perseus Mandate and most of the graphics in the beautiful, if shallow, Syndicate reboot. Made a blockout today: (this was one large, rough scene put in UDK as a single mesh,…
It will most likely not be produced with UDK - though this decision is not final, we are not even in real preproduction yet. UDK has the best base when it comes to artist friendly tools, a great built in materialeditor makes it easy to create stunning results in no time. But the whole dated coding/scripting progress makes…
Heya to all, I was wondering if anyone knew of image editors (like Photoshop) but set in a Node editing kind of way (a la UDK or ShaderFX)? I know so far we have Substance - Allegorithmic, but it has a really high learning curve (even for someone coming in from shader based knowledge, since alot of the functions are hidden…
Fantastic work and wonderful discussion surrounded this challenge. It's been great to see the progress as well as the perspectives on approaches for ways to achieve certain things. I hope everyone came away from the challenge feeling as though they've grown a bit and to those who are still working to reach that finish line…
I recently bought an intro level tablet which came with Zbrush core to learn how to sculpt a bit better before I decide whether or not I wanted to purchase the full version of Zbrush. I'm not sure if I'm just "dynameshing" wrong or if it's core. I'm a bit more comfortable in 3ds max when it comes to controls so I figured…
there is also "Mental mill - artist edition" which is node-based just like ShaderFX, and comes free with Nvidia's FX Composer 2.0. the app is standalone and can dump shader code, as well. (fx composer itself feels a bit bloated imo) the Cg Tutorial book, eventhough old, has some nice basic stuff. The Cg Manual (in here…
