Re: SOLVED: Curvature map from Object Space Normal map?
Yes there is! When we were texturing this high-poly mesh, we used a curvature map that was created from an Object Space Normal: This was an experimental process, but the current workflow looks like this: 1) Apply the Surface Blur filter on the Object Space Normal in Photoshop with a 16-48 pixel radius 2) Open xNormal and… -
Re: Foliage-Tree
The branch looks very jelly. You have to make it sharper, need to get rid of that smooth curves. The leafs are fine I think. When you are making foliage, there is something like Padding Edge. When you applied this texture with the black backround in the enigne, there will be black border around the leafs. To get rid of… -
Re: Fairy FD 2 Transformer W.I.P
Check out the way the cockpit/nose breaks up on starscream from the transformers movies. If that doesn't help you create something better, perhaps split the nose down the middle and have the sections slide up. At the moment he has some long dongle-cone thing going on and can't even crouch, so that's a design problem you… -
Re: Liz P
Hi Lizz, The character looks great! You might want to scale his hands up a bit to give an extra boost to the cartoony proportions and because everyone loves oversized hands ;) One thing that confused me is how you got the base lower, space invader type shapes on the gramophone to bake properly as they look like 90 degree… -
Re: Normal map issue, Maya
Why not just copy paste them in 3d? I see people give this advice pretty often but it is quite puzzeling. It takes about as much time to copy/paste in 3d as it does in 2d, but 3d has various benifits: 1. You cant rotate your normal map in 2d 2. When you have real 3d geometry, you get get correct AO on it 3. When you have… -
Re: Deadlocked Prime - 3D Pixel art FPS - Devlog
Thanks @haZe and @Wendy de Boer :) If you are wondering about anyhing go ahead and comment! I have finally fixed up the buttons from the gamejam, now they are more visually interactable. Hopefully I will make a lot of custom UI for different buttons, they just look so charming! Buttons will possibly be triggered with a USE… -
Re: Question about sculpting modular asset
bgoodsell- You are right about the entire texture sheet being a 1:1 ratio for the mesh. It shows my unfamiliarity with UV mapping. I guess I am just having difficulty understanding how I can UV map this one I break it up into several pieces. I created the diffuse, normal, spec using a different reference photo which I… -
Re: Combining UV/ maps into ONE texture map
Hmm. Not a good combo. Some hard choices to make. 3 options I see: 1. Put the head & body side by side. 2048x1024, manually in PS. In Max use UVW Xform to precisely align the head and body UVs to the new layout. UVW Unwrap to scale down those fingernail UVs into one of the gutters, that's the most manual part. But no… -
Re: Elod Horvath - Environment work
Guys, I would like to know if you have some tips on acquiring selection masks for the texturing process. I have this HP model: As you can see, there are several elements (separate meshes) that make up the model. Here is the LP: The LP is one solid surface mostly. Texture so far: I`d like to know if there is an efficient… -
Re: 360° Nude References (Boobs ahoy!) - nsfw
Awesome, but it's kinda lost potential since none of the ladies stretch or do anything interesting that would allow someone to study 'stress anatomy', kinda like body builder lifting, etc, the poses are simply too mundane or silly. Also, Katie is the only one that is even close to a 'neutral' pose as was noted, there is…
