Re: Normal map seams on UV borders
Generally, there will always be a seam if you zoom in far enough. This looks like you're zoomed in like 50x farther than you should be. What does the full asset look like and what is the intended viewing distance? -
Re: Splitting Objects for more UV Space and Texture Details?
I saw many examples for splitting a weapon into multiple textures,and it is a totally usual thing in environment art (buildings, big objects) but I would say you already use 4k which must be enough... A FPS weapon usually takes the 1/6 space of the screen in game and even if we use full hd resolution , the weapon gets… -
Re: Video recording software for udk?
Thanks guys.Is there a way to use the built in movie recording funtionality to export at a resolution higher than ur screen say at 5000px? I noticed when u compress from a high res to a lower one, it eliminates all the jagged edges and ur work looks crisp. -

Re: Displacement maps and UDK
It's expensive, has the pancake problem, doesn't work well (or at all) with a vertex-blend(s), it's performance heavy by shader standard (forcing you to go bog standard instead of having anything else) and the list goes on. Might as well just use Phong and a Color Map for all the physically accuracy it gives me room to… -
Re: Need help choosing computer!!!
1. Build your own desktop. 2. Mid range GPUs are fine, newer is better because they are more likely to be supported by newer APIs like DX12.

Re: Deadline Extension - August 9th
In the end we received a lot of exposure, new followers and honed our skills. Win-win situation no matter what. I really enjoyed every bit of this journey and will do it again.
