Re: Marmoset Toolbag 1.10 Official support thread
Hey, first of all let me say that I'm really loving Marmoset so far, it's great to have a tool that makes it so easy to display things in real time. Now, onto my question- is there anything I can do about loss of texture quality due to mipmapping? I've imported multiple meshes, but some are larger than others causing a… -
Re: 3ds Max / Substance Painter - Problems with Normal Maps
Thanks for the detailed reply. - I have separate the symmetric UV clusters/islands in another test, and the problem wasn't solved. I also tried to separate the UV clusters by smoothing groups using that option and I think the problem wasn't solved either. But just in case, I'll check it again. - You are correct about the… -
Re: ZBrush AUV bad for games?
Depends whether the ptex or prt realtime stuff is ready for primetime soon. In which case I think ptex as levels of resolution would be used instead of mipmaps? The same way tessellation levels can be used to handle LOD geometry levels?… -
Re: [UE4] Emissive lighting artifact
Hello, thank you for your answer. Of course I considered 2 and 3 as alternatives, but I was hoping there would be a solution instead of an alternative. I increased the lightmap resolution to 256, and also changed the mesh from a long rectangle to a single square (so even more lightmap pixels per mesh, if I understand how… -
Re: True 4k
4096x2160 (4K) is the cinema/projection standard (what high end projectors at theaters tend to use). 3840x2160 (UHD) is the broadcast standard and what any 16:9 display (the vast majority of displays) would use. The difference between the two is about 6% horizontally, entirely trivial for anything we would be concerned… -
Re: UV-Remap: A New Tool for Rearranging the UVs of Textured Models
It would be interesting to see how notably the new textures change from the remap. The examples shown get a bit more blurry, but they also seem to have been scaled down as a result of the combination. A pure rearrangement would help to identify changes (if any) better. A no-save demo is a great idea. A lossless / pixel… -
Sci-fi gun based on concept art by Lei Zhang
I stumbled upon Lei's art (https://www.artstation.com/limbolimbo) and thought it was just awesome, so I reached out and he kindly let me use his concept for this model. I originally only had one UV and three textures (base color, normal, and AO, roughness, and metallic packed together) as I wanted to have one material for… -
Re: Modeling a bunch of VHS & Music Player props
How close do you get and what level of interaction is neccessary? Work or personal/ portfolio? I would start simple: Composite an albedo from photo references of the modules needed, with all buttons and texts. Check in engine at desired distances, adjust, perhaps split up set to achieve neccessary resolution, then create… -
Re: R&D Deck
Make sure you mess around with your static model's lightmap resolution under properties in the static mesh editor, usually its set to a pretty low resolution by default. You don't really have to bump it up to a crazy resolution for shadow maps, it depends on the object and how crisp you want the shadows. Usually I start… -
Re: Ladies & gentlemen, Unearthly Challenge is ON!
Hey guys, I can't talk much as I am running late this morning but I wanted to clear a few things up. -Lightmap resolution doesn't count towards your final texture resolution and should likely be half of your texture resolution, 2048x2048, for this competition. Fred will update the rules with actual specifics. -Standard…
