Nice lookn lowpoly. Perhaps put a few more poly's in the feet? I know its not a very focal point, but they read very lowpoly compared to the rest of his body. Now entertain me with textures!:)
'Closest' and 'Furthest' only affects Highpolys between the Lowpoly and the Cage. As soon as the Ray crossed the Lowpoly's surface, it will always use the first hit. At least that is what my short tests established...might need verification ;)
rightclick on your lowpoly mesh, properties, and uncheck Cast Shadows in General tab, and also Cast Shadows in Adv. Lighting. The problem is caused by your lowpoly casting a shadow on the highpoly, and then this getting baked out on the texture.
more of a problem, with the the lowpoly than the high, though you will get a better edges, if you model it in, or float it. and even in the lowpoly you can get by complications with projection by simpley explodeing the mesh, and bakeing that way.
uh, I guess some would call it lowpoly art - flatcolored-ish? I wouldn't say its trying to be low poly but its has some similar looks to other lowpoly works :)
Sometimes I'll do keep an un-beveled version. Although sometimes I'll rebuild the lowpoly completely from scratch. It depends on what kind of shape it is and how I've made the hipoly versus what a good lowpoly is.
Sorry no, I assumed that there was another object that this tape is wrapped around and that you have a lowpoly model for that. So instead of having a dedicated lowpoly model for the tape, bake it directly onto the part the tape is wrapped around.
Hmm...intrigued and if I could also attempt to pin down the artist, spent an afternoon running a search however thus far no dice but here's something although a low poly character, I'd say a PBR workflow might've been similar to what was described in the OP i.e. "high end pixelart textures" The Bogatyr - Pixel Art PBR on a…
Here is an update on what ive got so far. I got the Lowpoly and a decent normal+Ao map out of my pc. Highpoly's And a try at Lowpoly [around 4.6k tris] 1color + AO +normal
Hi guys, preview of some characters in
