@okornyal : I'm mostly using 18mm. I have a very versatile 18-250mm lens. For photogrammetry you want to get as much as you can in your frame so I'm 99% of the time in 18mm. I spent quite a lot of time in UE4 trying to get all my textures to work fine. Here's a quick scene with some of the latest textures I made The scene…
ventress was pretty cool, i'm 99% sure someone else here did her a while back. let me look for a link. edit: it was Josh Singh. might be worth asking him if he still has any old renders. the model was pimp. here's the problem i'm having with lighting at the moment. i can: make the background ligher - this makes the…
you never know, it probably went like this; VGA call Billy Murray's agent; "we were wondering if Bill is available for collecting a video-games award?" Bill Murray's agent; "I doubt it" VGA call Hugh Jackmans agent; "we were wondering if Hugh is available for collecting a video-games award? Hugh picks up the phone; "of…
Im not exactly sure what changed, but now its behaving a little differently, but is still either 100% opaque or transparent. So here you can see i have only two layers effecting opacity, at the very bottom. Pressing C and viewing the opacity channel confirms the result of these two layers. The bottom layer is the map i…
What happened to show your work? Would be hard for someone to sit down and go over the scene with the student and see if he can talk the talk? It's not like those shots are all that great, they are right where I would expect someone in his position to be. It's not like modern furniture in a small apartment hasn't been done…
if there ever was a prop that shouldn't have been made with a none overlapping normalized uv map and a unique unsharable none tiling texture this is it ! ( do these kind of unwraps/textures have a name ? ) i would urge you to make this prop with a tiling texture some more/clever geometry cuts and vertex colors ! and than…
That's essentially what I was trying to do. I played it for a long time yesterday, and left it running when I wasn't playing, in hopes of getting it to keel over. My player had a blue glow to him, and the text would take about 5 seconds to crisp up to legible. Do you know a good trick to log the 3 ring? I had contemplated…
lol , are you sure you didn`t go to my school? EXACTLY the same story here. that said, it never really bothered me much. I never had the illusion that uni assignments alone get me far. 99% of what I know comes from reading tutorials, forums and researching industry workflows - I dont think many of my tutors ever heard of…
Seriously? Are we going to go there? Yeah, some odd music choices but pretty fitting for the theme and era they were going for. I heard a few giggles at 99 Luft Balloons. I doubt many of those people know the song is about nuclear war. The violence/gore was high but fit within context of the movie. It never really felt out…
okay I'm bumping this cause I have another AO related question... I have a 3000ish triangle model of a suspension piece, and I'm trying to bake an AO pass at 2048^2 for it. The bake went fine until around 90%... took about half an hour to get there, but now it's stuck at 99.9% and that's taken about 2 hours to do that 10%,…
