Re: Barbed Wire Baseball Bat
Actually, I'm not really sure if I'm making any sense to myself at the moment. Might have stayed up for a bit too long. I just had a look at my own latest wooden sculpt and realized I sculpted it in myself :p What I meant though, is that when taking a look at a lot of photos of wood, which would be used as a base for the… -
Re: Baked ambient occlusion map in PBR pipeline
AO should not be baked into your diffuse, when you bake AO directly into the diffuse, it affects direct lighting too, which is totally incorrect. Say you have a fridge, under that fridge is totally dark because the light is occluded, right? Now, what happens when you shine a flashlight there? Does it stay occluded? No, of… -
Re: what is the secret to good looking metalic textuers (previous gen texturing)
Metals should have a very dark (basically black) diffuse, as the look of pure metals is all in the reflection, metals do not diffuse light. It looks like your texture has a bright silver and yellow color in the diffuse, these should be in the specular map instead. The spec map should be pretty basic, pretty much a flat… -
Re: Marmoset Skyshop is GO, 1.07 is out!
Hey EQ sorry for the late replay. I just got done using Unity and skyshop on a 80 hour art test ! :) if your interested on an environment artists experience on your guys great tool PM me. as for your last reponse "What do you mean by grime exactly, blending in a diffuse map, multiplying on a dirt map, AO in general?" I was… -
Re: Pimp my realtime web 3d presentation (character)
Basicly its quite easy: Just import your mesh and textures, place them accordingly and create some lights. At last you'll have to use one of the camera scripts which are included in unity. Yesterday I just did my own unity setup and first test went well. The main problem with unity is, that the built in shaders only seem… -
Re: Marmoset Skyshop 1.07 is out! Image Based Lighting for Unity
Posting this here to not spam 999,999 peoples' emails. I know you're all working away nicely on your stuff, and you were interested in seeing some pictures using Marmoset IBL in Unity. Only complaints I have are the lack of interaction from realtime lights to the IBL components. I tried the "Hard Surface Shaders" and it… -
Re: Game Character
that image is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge! some stuff: YOu dont need to use a bump map in addition to a normal map. Take your bump info, grayscale it (color bump? eh?), and use the nvidia filter on it. Select your blue channel on that layer, adjust levels - White values = 127, and set that layer to… -
Re: mikes art thread
That's a really nice normal-map on the wall texture there. The diffuse is also good but feels like it could do with a tad more detail and noise. Some more sharp dark spots to imply cracks in the mortar would be great. About painting or baking lighting into diffuse textures when normalmapping... a little bit usually helps a… -
Re: Flintlock Pistol
Grayscale map All your colors are defined by your Diffuse, intensity by the Gloss and Metalness by Metalness. Marmoset has an entire page on conversion between the two workflows: http://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn/pbr-conversion With the metalness workflow it is also a good Idea to keep your AO separate from your… -
Re: Mudbox painting workflow
pior - couldn't it effectively be used to negate the 'seams' problem of painting a diffuse? What i don't understand w/ mudbox paint layers workflow regarding gameart is : Do you paint on the high sculpt or the 'baked/optimised' lowpoly? - (i haven't tried) but i am unware of any ability to bake the high poly's diffuse onto…
