Re: Toon outline problem
I don't know what engine you are using, but some engines can create odd bugs when rendering a toon shader effect where there are masked/transparent meshes. If this toon shader is a post process effect, it might just ignore the transparent/masked meshes. If they are set to a transparent type of blend mode, they might need… -
Re: Link's House from Ocarina Of Time
Thanks for the feedback! I'm in the process of taking the main tree model into Mudbox to add some extra detail but as I'm a novice at modelling and sculpting it's taking a little while longer than I thought! The UV problem on the tree is something I tried to fix and it doesn't look as bad in UDK and in Max as it does in… -
Re: WarTorn Town (WW2)
Hey Mark, Right now I just made an assortment of rubble/bricks and used reactor to drop them, then moved them around to my suiting. My plan right now is to leave it as because I have run out of time project wise.. (Due tomorrow) But I will be revisiting this scene, My goal would be to get it into UDK for a better… -
Re: Where Can I learn To Texture Water?
Okay, so I guess I should have explained better. I'm looking and making the actual texture maps (Its supposed to be a texture and light class, emphasis on texture). In this specific case the water will be flowing in an indoor, man-made river. I thought about sculpting, and it seems to be the most viable route to take at… -
Re: Pixelated Texture issues?
Err, I don't know how to say this, but that is not 2K square, and doesn't represent the final map, since you have other stuff to pack. So we still can't really help you, but as Gsokol said "wasted space" is your first issue. 8 padding it all you need for engines like UDK and if you're rendering, unless you plan on using… -
Re: Ugh...the uninformed.
Actually, In a bit more detail, after observing the behind the scenes of Blizzard Entertainment and few other games, the animation part can be done using any 3d modeling tool (3ds max in general) and than it can be exported as Xfiles to be implimented in your program to be run by events, so you can play that animation on… -
Re: Whats your IQ score...?
3D art is an incredibly deep and complex and subject, it requires more patience than perhaps sheer intellect to understand. The first time I booted up UDK back around 2011, I didn't know how this was a tool used by artists. It felt like input button after input button before you even got to the "can I actually make art… -
Re: Portfolio Critiques | 3D Hard Surface Artist | Stephen Borgens
Okay, Thank you for the critiques. I have another template I can get a hold of. Jet_Pilot: I have been having a hard time pinpointing my exact focus. I will start tailoring my art to hard surface more like lonewolf3d.com as that seems to be more to my liking. Those images you are speaking of were done in Unity and I don't… -
Re: Shader fiddling (getting rid of blue)
Well, standard normal maps range from -1 to +1 also. Also I have no idea how your dot products are doing anything with the output of those mask nodes. The mask should function like the hlsl component swizzle, just outputting a floating point scalar. The dot product is only valid between vectors, so something has to be… -
Re: 3D palace releases 200+ hours of video tutorials free!
