Re: Normal Map to Cavity Map
I used to struggle with AO, curvature and even separate concavity & convexity maps... but now in Marmoset Toolbag 3's baker when all the high and low polies and cages are set up, it's just one push of a button and bakes are awesome. ;) Nowadays you don't basically need to bake anything else than these 6 helper maps for the… -
Re: Post Apoc Gunner
[ QUOTE ] The normal map on the earphone things turns out with a fluted, wavy edge rather than a smooth border. The low poly version obviously has a reduced number of sides on the cylinder, and this seem to be the cause of the problem. Anyone know a way round this? I've tried UVing it several different ways, and also… -
Re: Aerodynamics Lab
I'm going to be working on this again seeing as I'm not doing much. Here's the redesign of the hologram machine, texture not yet 100%. There will be a couple other computers on the platform with it. The WIP high-poly for the hangar door beneath the control room. A scissor lift for the testing area, floating geo and all.… -
Re: [wip]Max payne alike high poly char
A few things that I think could be improved. His eyes are too much in the front, might want to try moving them back a litle. You actualy shaped the eyelids to have a sort of sad expresion. It isn't really possible to shape your eyelids besides closing and opening them. If you want a sad expresion use the eyebrows.… -
Re: Hit a brick wall | MD Cloth simulation workflow for animation
This is very similar to the workflow I used to retopo my garment except I use blender. It's really good for the sculpting phase but not usable within MD. Simulating more simple mesh like this t-shirt with Ncloth or blender is possible though if you only add thickness after the simulation. Thanks for the response. I had an… -
Re: [SOLVED] Math help! Accurately reducing edge length
That's a really good idea! The only problem though is that I need the diameter of the cone to remain the same (because I'm a tight ass) and that would flatten out the squares. Here's what I did instead: I used a measure tool plugin to get the distance of one edge at the base of the cone (.313 cm). Then I made a plane with… -
MMORPG Development
I am currently in the process of developing an MMORPG, at the moment I'm writing documents organising features that will be implemented into the game and while that process was running, I wanted answers and discussion on the questions I have to be going on that I can refer to when production takes place. Note: I am using… -
Blending textures (no smooth transition) [3D]
Hello everyone! First I would like to apologize because I am very new to 3D. I've used unity a little and experimented with 2D. I think I want to try some 3D in Unreal now. So in 2D we have tiles: I can paint the grass tiles in and then add the dirt and autotiles gives me a nice clean transition. I looked at Zelda links… -
ZBrush - zAppLink giving pixelated results
Hey guys, hoping any Zbrush artists could help me. I was looking into replacing 3DCoat with Zbrush for low poly painting. I read that ZAppLink could do the trick; you only have to first create a texture so as to make ZAppLink drop what you painted to the texture and not to the vertex. The problem is, for some reason… -
3ds Max 2017 corrupting files non-stop
I can't stand 3ds Max 2017 anymore: it crashes randomly with the most stupid thing (using edge restriction to move a vertex, changing selection mode, deleting edge loops...), sometimes it closes without any notification, keeps alive the proccess 3dsmax.exe after having closed the program or explodes when using the relax UV…
