UV help for a complex car
Hey all, I'm teaching myself how to use the unreal engine. I created a complex car I wanted to rig and try and drive around in the engine but I wanted to texture it first. My question is, how many UV maps should I create for this car? It has an open cab with many accessories and an interior. Should I put all of the car… -
Browning M2 .50 CAL Machine Gun
Hello guys, I'm a new user and this is my first contribution here. As you can derive from the title I'll be trying to model the m2 machine gun. Why trying, because of a really really bad habit of freezing my works that I once started and I eventually never used to complete them, ever :disappointed: (might be familiar to… -
Re: How to cap low poly cylinders
I've always tried to quadrify caps as best I can and tend to stick to side counts that can make all quad caps, but that was never even introduced as a method in the thread you link to Stradigos. Sure it's all triangulated at runtime but I don't see many disadvantages to the "all/near all quads" method. Anyone care to… -
Re: Creating cars for games
I have seen plenty of games where they model the car and just remove small elements here and there, such as change the headlight type, color, etc. I'm not talking about Indie Games either, I'm talking about big games with a 60$ price tag, using the likes of cars from big companies, simply not using the names. Same with… -
Re: Car modeling help
Quads do matter a lot more for cars than they do for the average Hard surface object. Reflections bring out every single thing so much more. eg, for regular stuff like a gun, you can terminate unwanted lines into an N-Gon on a surface that is near flat, but forget it for a car, it's going to look bad. Snakedoctor, quick… -
Re: Car battery(?) problems
Actually, I've had starters die with absolutely no prior sound. And true, if the battery is deader than dead, then it could take it a few to charge up before being able to start. The click IS the sound of the solenoid, but it takes less juice than the starter, thus the reason you hear it and not the starter. So again, if… -
Re: Car games
You picked a strange time to start work like this. AI is going to make things difficult for you. Here are some images from Artstation found under the tag AI. So as far as designing cars for games this seems to make things difficult. As far as I know, AI images cant be copywrighted though. Good luck. -
Re: Is 3d Coat worth it?
Regarding your 5 points: I'm not sure a brush constitutes a good primary reason to choose between programs. The resolution stuff is nice, I cant fault it although when working at those resolutions people tend to go to UDIM, which substance supports. Not sure what you mean regarding edge detection, seems fine to me -… -
Re: How do you bake such a complex woven hat on a low-poly mesh that like that?
I made a tutorial recently, for our automated remesher. It currently puts out triangulated mesh (quad output in progress), so maybe not what you want. But should give you an idea of how it's done. https://docs.rapidpipeline.com/docs/3dProcessor-Tutorials/tutorial-remesher If you manually retopo the lowpoly mesh, you can… -
Re: Car or Computer?
Computer first, cars suck. I´m living car free now after 6 years of car addiction and I feel way better! Get a bicycle if you don´t have one, and you can date on buses or taxis. It´s cheaper in the end, and older cars need service often, which is a pain in the ass. But hey... I lived a little in Utah and I made $10+tips an…
