Compute tangent face per fragment & tagents and binormals
Hello, So I'm getting into substance painter for the 1st time and I was introduced to this new term: "compute tangent face per fragment ". Now I have found some places online explaining what this is though, I don't really fully understand it and have to do more reading. To give some backstory I'm making a character in 3ds… -
Re: Online classes for texturing
Have you textured other kinds of materials before? Are you talking a PBR workflow? If you can identify the properties that define a metal or a plastic or a wood, how do you think a fabric will be unique? It's like anything else I suppose.

Re: [UE4] Physically Based 3D Art: 2016

Biped Keyframe Per Frame when saving BIPs
I've noticed that any bip files I save out in a separate max file completely screws up when I import them into another file's biped. This is unless I use the Key Frame Per Frame checkbox. I've started saving all my bip files with two versions (one with an added suffix '_kfpf'). What I'd like to know is A)why does it… -
Making mask on a per material basis
I had a conversation with someone about texturing. The individual is not into 3D but he is fascinated by the technical aspects of games. I demonstrated my process. I have 1 folder per material with a mask on the folder which i create with a lasso tool. For example, if I were to texture a wheel, I would have a folder for… -
