Re: Getting into the Game Industry (Inspiration of a different kind)
The early years: I grew up with my mother only. We were, and still are, close. My mother graduated from Nursing school when I was around 7 years old.

Re: Question about PBR
Hey dude, yeah, there is of course variance in implementation. My post above was as general as I could make it though, and talks more about ideals than any specific engine.

[UE4] Vertex Paint shader (with two material blending, water painting and optional displacement)
For another project I am working on, a requirement I have set myself is that I will need to be able to use vertex paint some meshes.

Re: Trimsheet normals inverted when rotating UV islands
Rotating the mesh components doesn't necessarily have the same effect as rotating the normal map or the UV islands. If it did then tangent space normal maps wouldn't work on anything other than static objects because in-game meshes are often required to deform and rotate. The assumption that the UV islands and normal map… -
