Re: Issue with Bakes and UVs Need some help!
No expert but till someone expert in the area appears. Also a good idea to mention what app/baker you are using. 1/ Make sure none of your components are adjacent. Adjacent objects cause casting errors. If so separate objects into sets, or use a cage. 2/ Check your ray casting distance and mess with it. 3/If there is a… -
Baking Hair?I
Is there any possible way to bake a texture of cg created hair on a 3d model shaped the same dimensions as the hair itself (including the alphas)? Meaning you use your hair plug in whatever 3d program your using. Make a simple low poly form that contours to the way the hair flows, and then bake the hairs information unto… -
Re: Modifying topology after bake?
Yup you should rebake - but mostly, you should also keep in mind that anything takes iterations to get right. So instead of hoping to get a perfect/easy rebake automagically, I'd rather suggest to do as many hacks as needed on the low, to consider the first bake as just a temporary thing, and then be ready to… -
Maya 2012 Normal Map Baking Problem
Hey folks. I'm currently at school trying to figure this one out... See, I've been assigned to model a locker. I'm currently working on the door. I've made a high poly model and a low poly with UVs. I baked the normal map yesterday and at first glance it looked alright, but when assigning the diffuse the 3D effect more or… -
Some feedback and issues (baking)
Hi everybody First, padding doesn't work. It simply outputs gray photoshop file Second, does it output only PSD? Because I wasn't able to find any other option. Third, maching by baking group seem to work very strange if I bake albedo. Some faces aren't baked properly. I've checked projection cages, matching meshes and so… -
Baking A Normal Map in Maya
So iv'e been trying to bake normal maps in Max, and the bakes come out perfect. I don't really like to bake normals in Max because Max is very cumbersome, so I thought i'd try to use Maya's new Turtle renderer. I am able to make the normals, not coming out perfect, but I just can't get my head around the envelope(cage)… -
Substance Painter - Baking problem with Color
Hello everyone! (I am new here and I hope i am in the good section, sorry if that's not the case) After a baking on substance painter, I have a strange render about my color (I've the impression the faces are flipped... but my UV Island seems ok in 3ds max and i don't have flipped normal and overlapped faces on my mesh...)… -
Re: How to bake transparency-Maya
_Kratos_ explained it well, that's really the only way to bake transparency-mapped models to a new texture, AFAIK. Foliage for games is best created by making geometry of the leaves, grass blades, etc. and baking that into textures with alpha. Photos can be used, but they're often more trouble than they're worth IMHO, and… -
Baking ao for mechanical stuff for animation
As title says, i'm wondering what would be best way to bake somewhat complex mechanical machinery in way that would be in-game animation friendly. I'm creating kind-of-a mech with hydraulic legs, bending hydraulics hoses and jointed armor plates, and am hoping to animate it and take it to either UE or unity for renders.… -
Are retoplogy tools like Blender's retopoflow 4 worth it for non characters
Hi, For some context I do environment design (hobby) mainly, but I am starting to do more and more modelling instead of depending on others for models or purchased kits. I have been delving into making rocks both realistic ish (with brushes) and stylised with the base Blender brushes. I saw a Mark Kingsnorth retopo addon…
