Re: [WIP][UE4] The Heart Maker (Full Environment) Looking for critique!
Hey! One thing that really bothers me about this is the amount of visual noise created by the very detailed texture maps, it's kind of overwhelming to my eyes. I'd tone down the normal maps on a lot of your assets, for example your floor has deep grooves in woodgrain. Also the woodgrain would not continue uninterrupted… -
Re: I guess this is more yes or no type of question
Here is example... Lets say you finished a 3d character. By "finished" I mean you're done with modeling/sculpting,texturing,rendering. And you see there are some problems in anatomy for example or maybe in texturing, and you overpaint those parts in Ps. Thats kinda "faking". But yea, it's all about context and what is the… -
Re: Shader help!
this is really simple. you just multiply the ao map with the ambient lighting. no inverse dot products or linear algebra neccessary. i like to post pictures so here's an example in unity. here the diffuse map is just a solid color but using a texture instead obviously isn't a problem. actually getting ambient light is the… -
Re: Is there a way to convert a 3DS Mesh to an editable poly without it breaking?
It's likely this model has non-manifold mesh, that's why it's breaking. Editable Poly requires specific topology rules. Editable Mesh does not, you can have edges extruded in the middle of a surface for example. Editable Poly does not support this. Where did you get the model from? Ask them for the source file. The .3ds… -
Re: Does a good 3D Artist need to be a good 2D Artist?
Not a necessity but you will improve as an artist, giving you depth in your skill set to grow upon. For example doing traditional life drawing forces you to test your observational skills and trains your mind's eye in articulating what you see and translating that into a medium. It also forces you to constantly assess how… -
Re: Handpainted Tree house - wip
Looks pretty cool, Id try getting a sky or background in there, right now the black isnt helping with your values and lighting. then there is the obvious things like solo grass cards just sitting there without a proper transition to the ground. I could also recommend bumping up the polycount some, for example the roof is… -
Re: UE4 Tiling Rock Wall
Also if you look at the cave example content, they like to reuse the same 4 or 5 rock meshes and just rotate the meshes around. If you textures do not look good upside down, it makes then a lot less reusable and harder to cover up tiling. I know that example isn't the best for this particular texture. But imagine there was… -
Re: Extracting simple models
Your link is broken, in two ways: * The link goes to http://www.elitepvpers.com/link/?http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=10894 which is an invalid syntax. * If I strip out the first part, the xentax forum tells me "The requested topic does not exist." Also, "Extracting simple models" is a poor thread title. * If… -
Re: Snaps in Max
Use 'S' to toggle snaps. In the Main Toolbar there is a Button with a Magnet, where you can toggle Snaps (similar to pressing 'S'), chose between 2D, 2.5D and 3D Snap (I only use 3D) and, if you rightclick it, you open a new window where you can choose what to snap and, for example, to use the Gizmo's Axis Constraint when… -
Re: Animation Question
Nice . I don't how to say " THANKS FOR YOUR HELP ! " Actually I think Game animation is the most mysterious part of the game Industry in these days. For Example I don't know how can I export a Ray Fire destruction type animation Into a game engine ! For Example Unity only Supports Bones and Biped fr animation and using…
