Assuming your project involves high to low poly bake workflow? then from my perspective both elements completed thus far seem fine, imo nicely quadrafied too project an optimised proxy off of. As for face counts including relative number of cylinder segments, well they're dependent upon screen space this object or parts…
Hey guys, just going to use this thread as a dump for any 3d assets that I develop for my current game. The game has no name at the moment. I can give you an idea as to how it'll look and play by telling you that it is similar to Sim City, but in space :) I have been programming away for days, trying to create a…
Finalizing the model of the logo and neon signs (that took a bit of time..). Used a bit of mash for the scatter effect. Here are some tests in Vray. Don't mind the ugly metallic support behind the logo, all temporary placeholders. I used a ramp node in the neon shader.
Seems possible, especially considering that there is a way to bring these same shading artifacts in Eevee - I did that just by plugging the normal map into an AO node and looking at the isolated diffuse color render pass I have a sneaking suspicion that the AO node may be utilizing Cycles for its raytracing (I doubt that…
http://www.igda.org/articles/erobinson_crunch.php Great article from the latest IGDA newsletter. My favorate quote, and the one I have found to be true first hand. "They (managers) crunch because they have learned only the importance of appearing to do their best to instead of really of doing their best."
I've been using speedtree for a little while now and I thought I had a hang of it. I made some trees and exported them yada yada and I reopened the file today and the previously 2k~ tri trees I made are now at a whopping 13k tris. Upon closer inspection I see that there are smaller versions of the trees within my trees. I…
Doesn't have all that much to do with whether a texture is tiling or unique. Textures are just images. For a long long time Photoshop was the best available image editor for our needs. Besides painting directly onto an image or manipulaitng photos into a texture it allows you to do a lot of automation by clever use of…
Have you checked, that the basemesh is added into the first socket of your Wrapping node? It is recommended for quick computations, that your basemesh has not more than ~30k polygons since the more polygons your Basemesh has, the longer the computation time is. According to the developer, a 100k basemesh might take up to…
Set the size of your first node imputs (the first node you pluck your bitmaps into) to "absolute" or the size of your project in general (just double click on the empty side of your graph, top right is your size options) and change the resolution to what you want, e.g 1 or 2k. What is the size of your project? A good thing…
