Re: Textures - Specular Level vs Glossiness - What What?
Just some extra info: Blinn, phong, oren-nayar, shlick etc all have diffuse and specular implementations. Most often you'll be seeing a lambertian diffuse model with a blinn or phong specular. Blinn's model is an approximation of phongs, and can be made to look identical with differing exponents. Also that specular… -
Re: Untitled Pirate iPhone Game
Thanks for the kind words and feedback so far guys. I'll address somne points and we can work on others :p I'm curious why you have redundant textures. You've made two walls [with the windows] that are nearly identical. Same for the triangular eve pieces - mirror the uvs, not the texture. I assume this relates to the… -
Re: What sort of shader could win this contest?
My goal was to create a cool looking shader (main judgment criteria is "Aesthetics: Does it look cool?"). You get to a point in a no-man's land writing shaders where you have to do something more complex than the generic shaders out there that cover 99% of all surfaces with minor variations, but aren't mathematical enough… -
Re: Baked normals in different engines.
I was slowing typing out a response here to everyone that offered advice when I stumbled on the issue: unreal doesn't take the material into account when lighting! I thought I had checked this issue when I viewed the 'lighting only' mode (as posted in that large image above) but it turns out that mode isn't just the… -
Re: Rugged cliche type
Rifter, ha that wasnt supposed to be there.. the 'what am I?' object was part of his gas mask setup.. but since I dropped that I decided to keep the box and texture it up to fit with the rest of him, just me trying to think up what it should be shotgun, hey thanks. Its a interesting point you bring up about the missing… -
Re: Looking for low-poly 3D modeller
Hello everyone :) Just an update on the project on how it is - We've gotten quite a way through developing some of the key environments in the game. Thanks for everyone's comments so far - it's really motivating to hear so many people interested in the game and definitely pushes us forward in getting it completed. With so… -
Re: New Environment render
Nice environment, poor execution.* Add an AO pass (you said you did, but I can't tell). Most games coming out use AO as a post process so I wouldn't worry about if its feasible in games or not. * Your pixel density is inconsistent. For instance, the light post wood texture is much blurrier than that garbage bag directly… -
Re: Character : Slack ( fully textured, etc )
This stuff looks good overall. I really don't like the guy's face... the eyes look far too small, and squashed together. The lines/wrinkles going down the cheeks look really weird, they're not anatomically correct, and shaded far too "hard" to be flesh. His mouth also seems too hard... I think you've overdone the 1-pixel… -
Starcofski's Section
Hey guys, so to start, I'm going to post an album of all the materials I used, along with (soon) two finalized in-game videos of my Outworld Devourer horns cosmetic. But first some reference numbers. Mask1 - Red: The glow effect will occur at even 4 points above pure black (for best results use a buffer of 5-9 for… -
