Re: Problem to bake a text normal map on a flat surface with xNormal
You are still getting some smoothing errors and workaround fix is not so great because you will have issues with other high-res bakes. Try exporting high-poly as .obj next time. And details like these are best made in Photoshop, very quick. edit:quickly traced the interior and applied glow filter and Xnormal height to… -
Re: Which software should i be learning for hard surface modeling in games?
I'm going to go over those in more detail this weekend when I have more time. Just glancing over them they look fairly similar to the way I'm working in max but not quite there. I'll have to go over them in more depth and do some more trail and error. I'll probably start new thread about it, instead of derailing this one… -
Re: Normal Map comes out like poop
In max, add a Turn To Poly modifier on the top of your stack. Check the box "Limit Polygon Size" and set the "Max Size" to 3. Export that. This is called non destructive triangulation and will prevent you from making the triangulation permanent. We do this because the .obj export will compute how the triangles are arranged… -
Re: Dominant Light with Sky-dome issues
Thanks for getting back so fast! Your suggestions were already checked however I figured it out! I unchecked precomputed shadows on the skybox... it was because I was stupid and used a static mesh instead of an interp actor so its shadows were causing the error. Thanks again for taking the time! I'm changing my shadow… -
Re: Vehicle Design
Been having some difficulty with getting my vehicle into Unreal. As far as I’m aware I’ve set up the .ini and .uc files correctly, having corrected them from before and although the Unreal editor compiles, it comes up with the following errors. http://i740.photobucket.com/albums/xx49/Patackular/Compile_error_1.jpg I’ve… -
Re: New To Modelling
This model is supposed to be a high poly piece to bake onto a low poly. The grip is definately too wide the bipod could definately use some more work. Those things are pretty obvious. There are also some small errors that I have to learn to fix in there also. I guess that as I try to model more I will learn to fix those.… -
Re: [UDK] Salt Mine
I changed the lights to just emissive and I'm getting a weird + shaped shading error, is there a way to fix that? Working on making more props and clutter now, I'll post a bigger update tonight, but this is bugging me. Also I have 2 monitors, one of them makes this look too purple, the other one is a nice balance, I can't… -
Re: Medieval Building
By quake method he means you don't make the whole exterior of the house. You only make a false front, like a stage set. This only works if the player is limited to traveling on one main street, and there are no spaces between the houses. Depends on your town style, and the gameplay. Unity should have no trouble with… -
Re: Blender > UDK Batch Export Helper
Added a slider in the UI to control the scale, and made it default to 50. Also modified the script to replace "." characters in group names to "_" so there will be no .fbx import errors. I will look into changing how users interact with groups, since the instances are based on the distance to the world origin. The offsets… -
Re: Unreal Engine 4 - UV seam, Normal (or lightmap bug), and symmetry missalignment.
I can't speak to UE4 but UE3 has issues with symmetry when you are importing mesh normals. Try turning off explicit normals/import tangents and see if the seam goes away. You will get a bunch of shading errors but that might help narrow down the cause. Edit: Also, can you show your lowpoly smoothing and what the normal map…
