Re: How do I do a realistic Eye?
Right now you have specular highlights in the diffuse map (your diffuse map should not have directional lighting info) and you are only using diffuse shading. Find a good reference of an eye and try to mimic the specularity and the shading in your material setup. Keep in mind that not only are eyes somewhat reflective, but… -
Re: Jedi Starfighter
Definitely coming along, nice! The only thing really getting to me is that the normal map seems to be carrying all the weight of the damage while the diffuse still looks relatively clean. One thing that helps me is in PS have your normal layer sitting over you diffuse layer and drop the opacity of the normal layer to about… -
Re: Journey Down Environment.
That AO technique you tried isn't working. In fact I'd say you've put too much effort into something with little to no great success. The floor tile feels blurry up close. If you wanted to do some fancy shader work, you should have focused on breaking up the tiling diffuse some more and used a lerp mask with different… -
Preferences for creating maps other than normal...
Hi, Is there a consenus on how much of maps baked from high-res source should be direct from the render or done on the game model itself? I can see the advantages of creating most of it from the high-res model (which means that the high-res model would require some mapping as well). You could then mess around with the UVs… -
Consolidating materials via maya transfer maps
So i'm looking to optimize some assets that were created with a combination of tiling textures (in this case, 3 diffuse, normal and specular maps on one mesh) so the way i'm going about it now is this: -make a copy of the finished textured mesh -layout uv's of copy -transfer diffuse map from the source to target using… -
Whats the difference between using baked AO map in the AO slot and just merging it into my texture?
I baked out my normal, AO, and height maps from hi to low poly in Marmoset. Now I've' imported all my meshes into a single Substance Painter file using an FBX and I could apply each of the the individual AO maps to the AO map layer or I could just add them as an additional layer for the diffuse texture layer. Any reason to… -
Re: Unity wants to know Metal vs Spec PBR workflow
Yes and no. Mostly yes on a technical level, the metalness workflow isn't as easy to represent (or convert) odd values, however in reality those values don't show up too often. If you're seeing hugely different results with the spec vs metalness workflow, more than anything that is probably a sign that your content isn't… -
Re: BORDERLANDS 2 ART MEGA THREAD!!!! [OMG IMAGE HEAVY]
Beautiful, beautiful textures. Hmm, am I the only one who thinks that black outlines and details in diffuse texture(not in shader) hide most of normal/spec map details? Those high poly models are state of art, but unfortunately, it doesn't show ingame, since diffuse is super complex and those nice details are difficult to… -
Re: [UE4] Forest development - Suggest, Help, Critique
Hey! Thanks will share :) As you can see UV is as simple as it can be, looks like I have moved diffuse texture cant find it atm :/ I'll post it once I find it I will do that but right now I'm trying to get lighting in order as bad lighting made me change diffuse (when diffuse was ok but lighting made it look bad) so after… -
Re: Land Dragon
Don't make a normal map by just running a crazybump/nvidia filter over your diffuse. This simply doesn't work that well for characters. Maybe only to add in small details that you add to the highpoly-generated normalmap. The design is actually pretty cool! the colors could use some work, but the shape and style are fun.…
