Make Planar in Maya 2009
I'm a native Max user and I use the make planar tool every now and then. At work though, we use Maya 2009 and I can't seem to find a tool that's close to make planar and I can't scale by face normals. Anyone know how to make a select group of faces flat planar based on their average? Max has this tool, I'm just hoping Maya… -
Re: [Portfolio] Bearded_Man - Environment Art
Yeah, same comments as the other, bake some ambient occlusion maps on your environment, they looks flat. Also, CrazyBump is the worst specular maker app, but good for normal map. You should make the specular from your diffuse. Try to look at reference pictures, by observing the picture, you'll able to mimic the same… -
Re: Famine - Darksiders - Interpretation
Yeah, I don't think your treatment is quite working yet, although it's not a bad idea. It might be worth taking a look at the Phantasmagoria enemies from the first American McGees Alice game. It's tough to find a decent screenshot but you can see one a couple of minutes into this video [ame="… -
Re: [Finished Work] Night Room Scene – Nov-Dec 2024 Environment Art Challenge
Thanks for the feedback! changed the wall textures and softened the replaster texture, and added some props emphasize more on storytelling, redid some lighting and colors. A small vfx to add floating dust, and final touches on post process, and will wrap it up! -
Edge Smoothing Decals
Hello everyone - Does anybody know if there is a way to use decals strips which only contain normal information to smooth the edges of a mesh beneath it - so you would achieve the same results as face weighted normals without the mesh being chamfered but relying on the decal strips to provide the normal information for… -
[UE4] "Long and Rubbery"
...as in a Submarine. I had an idea for a UE Master Material for vehicle panels, which became rubber tiles, which became a whole submarine. Possibly because I've been getting back into the Ace Combat franchise, and big floating/flying things are cool. I'll be updating this post on AS up until it's finished with (in one way… -
Re: Mask from Math in Material Editor
another option in just nodes would be 2 if nodes, a float 2 for the corner of the square and a float 1 or float 2 for side width(use float 2 if you want rectangles), along with a texcoords. If texcoords > or = to cornerCoord output 1 else output 0 If texcoords < or = to cornerCoord + sideWidth output 1 else output 0… -
Re: Coyo.Te's Dota 2 Thread
i love the idea of the floating ice fragments, the reason for the ring is simply that I assume it'll look a little stiff without floating animation. the floating fragments were also in the original concept which got lost due to pc freeze, so maybe i should try it out and see how it translates into the game without floating… -
Re: Weeping Tree Crit
Hey not really and expert myself but maybe I can point out something useful for you, at the moment everything looks pretty uniform, you have to break the color of the leaves, even if you just make like a couple with the original color and some other with just a HSL node, some of the leaves are actually floating or not… -
Sketchbook: Jade Liaw
This collection shows a variety of renders from my Environment Diorama, of which I composed from a webcomic series idea. This floating island in the sky is meant to be the main character's mental space, a place inside their mind for all of their individual traits to interact. The overall composition was meant to be…
