Re: Help me improve!
I tried this but I could not find any updated documentation about it. Which node are you talking about exactly? I got it fixed and have a nicely displaced material now. I imported a tesellated plane. I know this comes with high performance costs, especially when I make a whole floor tesellated, but my scene is gonna have… -
Re: cha-cha-cha
no-one wants a go at this? it's a modern-day (well, it was when it was made) adapatation of an older book featuring a well known character ... features Arnie (very briefly, and quietly), a bottle of coke, a mafia-type bloke, links to MASH ... oh, and it has a missing cat too. it's also linked to a movie quoted in this game… -
Re: Environment Practice
Thanks for all the help, Minotaur0 I used that tutorial when fixing my normal maps before :) I have abused the search function of this forum lol theres just so much information everywhere! I have been looking at the materials that come with the game, and their material set ups are so complicated with all the different… -

Blender Mapping Rotation Question
Is it possible to setup mapping so that the Z copies the mapping from the X or Y? I feel like it should be possible but can't get my head around the Math of it, I thought maybe something like the Texture Coordinates Node, Normal socket into a Separate XYZ, then somehow rotate/possibly Mix it with something so that it gets… -

I'm switching careers out of the game industry.
Always thought I wanted to be a 3D artist / designer for games. I do really enjoy my work and I'd say I'm really good at it. I currently model, texture, animate, rig and optimise all 3D assets for the game. I will then import them into engine and set up any controllers required. I also do most of the 2D graphics (UI and… -

Re: master chief halo2 WIP
Around soon after the time of E3 2003 I spoke with the engine coders who I work with, about the advantage/disadvantages in general regarding Normal-Mapping vs Bump-Mapping (you know the genaral discussion between coder and Artist ..) anyhow Halo2 was mentioned and someone said that it was actually bump-mapping used in… -
Re: Optimizing Shader Performance for Real-Time Rendering
A lot of shader performance comes down to your textures as well. If you can get away with less textures being accessed, you'll do better. Many materials just need a monochromatic albedo, tinted a color, so you can compress to the red channel, and pack other maps in with it. It's better to pack materials into less textures,…
