Re: Tileable Texture or Custom Texture?
I quickly made this as a test: I've cut up the mesh at the parts that needed a different color. Then detached that part, so you get a really sharp blend. Then after I've assigned the colors I painted in a few spots of AO and shadows. In Unity I made special shader that multiplies a diffuse texture with the vertex colors. -
Re: Root Golem
Almost final sculpt because I noticed the eyes had squished a little as I uploaded. >.> I've thinned the legs a little so they weren't pop-eye bulging and brought the eyes up and made them bigger. Last bit on the eyes and then I'm going to knock out a quick polypaint then I can start on the diffuse. -
Re: Prospects of Texture Artists?
I think it will really depend on the kind of work you do. The two trends moving forward I see are texture painting becoming much more material oriented, and texture painting integrating with sculpting. Both of these things are already happening but right now a lot of the industry still gets by with diffuse painting + quick… -
Re: Max to Maya: Help Make It Easier
Ninja UV will map to a specified texel density.. it will automatically scale based on the diffuse texture size or you can input a texture size. http://www.creativecrash.com/maya/marketplace/scripts-plugins/texturing/c/ninja-uv--2 you can also check out Ninja Dojo for more tools. http://www.bk3d.com/Ninja_Dojo/Dojo.htm -
Re: [PORTFOLIO] Bonnie Sin, 3D Artist
It's lookin' pretty good. The only thing I would say is that the scratches on the walls may be a little to noticeable on the diffuse. But it is a WIP. You may have already heard this, I know I've heard it a lot; its better to have 1 or 2 completely finished projects than a bunch of WIP in your portfolio. GET THIS SHIT… -
Re: Ares - God of War
Thanks man, texture resolution is 2048 for the whole character + weapon. Maps include: Diffuse + Alpha, Normal, Spec Colour + Gloss, Emissive, SSS Mask. Currently using Marmoset. I need to sort the emissive texture on the hammer and balance it out. I also plan on rigging him as well as putting in a decent lighting system… -
Re: First Crysis 2 shots/bullshots?
the environments i can believe, the character looks tooooooo good though - haha. Wonder if its some of that DX11 magic voodoo? There doesn't look to be much, if any detail at all in the Diffuse, just Normals & Specular, and possibly a Height Map for offsetting the geometry - which are all probably 4096 :) thats a nice… -
Re: Brick Apartment Building [wip]
I baked out a pretty decent tiling normal map from my sculpt, and created some test diffuse and specular textures. I'm still having some problems with my corner normals. Anybody got any tips on how to smooth them out? I'd also appreciate any feedback on how to improve this in general. -
Re: Can´t repair Smoothing Groups
Hey Stevston! Thanks for your post. I gave a try with OBJ and its the same result. But as you say, those errors are so small, that nobody will see them. I think that the Diffuse,Spec and Gloss Map will make them more invisbile,too. Obscura said to me, that there is no reason to look so close at a normal map ^^ -
Re: Lighting Issues in the UDK
Indeed, but as we're talking UDK, the auto UV generator (which is MS DirectX not Epic) can produce quite shit results. Maybe there is a better in-house tool you've used? As for spending time on it - take your diffuse uv set, copy it to your lightmap uv set and start there. Should not take more than a few mins.
