Re: Using normal lengths <1 for AO type effect?
From a theoretical view this is not a problem, but you have to deal with some issues. If possible you need to adjust the shaders to re-normalize the normal where needed or extract the ao value on its own. Most lighting calculations which use the normal in combination with a dot product, have no problem with the scaled… -
Re: Weird marmoset normal map issue
EQ, can you bake 16 bit normal maps out of xNormal? I looked around, but couldn't figure it out. -
Re: Can normal map be used in animation?
Thank you very much! Today when I was reading Autodesk documents. It says:" The other very popular use for tangent space normal maps is the deforming of characters. Because the tangent space normal map defines the details of a character relative to the surface, you can stretch, move and deform your character, and those… -
Normal map changing the global orientation of the specular.
Hi ! I came up on this problem everytimes lately, maybe because I changed a little bit my pipeline to create normal maps. maybe I had this everytimes without really noticing it ? Here it is: (I am doin that in UDK, but I guess it would do the same with any game engine/renderer.) When I apply one of my normal map in my… -
Blending Normal Maps With Multiple UV-Layouts
Hi there. I am currently experimenting with multiple uv-layouts. I wanted to add topology on one channel and detail maps on another channel. But I can't get it working properly because all normal maps are oriented always by channel 0 in Unreal 4. I created a test to properly show my issue. Here you can see, that I have one… -
Re: normal map problems
You could try XNormal - www.xnormal.net Be sure to get the documentation and read it too, if you don't understand how the program works. It's very good for creating and displaying tangent-space normal maps! Best of all, it's free -
Re: I would like some tips on how to recreate a Miku concert model
Thank you for the question! I made this model myself, but I want to know how to make it look more accurate to the references shown above texture and normal map wise, and what I should do to make it that way. I can’t wait to hear back from you - Cyber Edit: I am not home right now, so I will send the screenshot without the… -
Zbrush Tilable Wall Normals
Hi there, I'm working on a tilable wall in Zbrush. For a first attempt at an environmental prop in Zbrush I don't think it went too badly (plenty of room for improvement though). Attachment not found. At first I just UV mapped the bricks in Zbrush and imported the low poly mesh, with normal map, into Maya. Quite simply the… -
convert vertex normal to...something ?
Ola, I'd like to project custom vertex normals from one mesh to another. I tried Normal Thief, which is ok, but i'd need something more precise and i had an idea about using the projection modifier. But projection doesn't work on vertex normal, AFAIK. So I'd like to convert vertex normal data to something like vertex color… -
Normal Map creation Questions
Hello all. I am looking at trying to make some small game assets for a small game project at school and i am running into issues creating normal maps. I am using X normal to generate normal maps for my items. But once i have created the Normal map i get very sharp edges as shown in the picture below. So i am wanting to…
