Here is the change log of SD 5.0, in bold the main new features. Changes: [Export] discard Alpha channel for TGA and BMP when it is full opaque [3d View] Set the PBR shader by default [2D View] Switch to view image as alpha premultiplied [Parameters] Size: Add a Width/Height lock / display values in dropdown lists…
Actually you could just make a clone of your tile sampler and make it work with inputs alphas in 8 bit mode. No need to remap anything. Sorry for over -complicating. Also you can use FXAA node to "fix" " nasty edges". That "hiden gradient" UV idea still might be useful if you want to use the leaves color counterparts…
Looking great ThinkKlinck! I like the solid beam you have coming down and adding a cone of heavenly light around it would help push it further. I had a scene awhile ago where I made an asset with kind of the same thought in mind. What I'd suggest to make your heavenly light beam is to first fit a cone that runs from the…
Hey guys! I was wondering if all of you who use ZBrush could post below some of your stats: 1) What CPU (mem, mobo?) do you use? 2) What is your benchmark score in ZBrush (single thread, multi thread)? I'm really curious about the criteria of selecting a proper CPU for ZBrush. I've thoroughly googled for any real…
Hello, I am trying to streamline hair-cards in Blender and really want to use Fibershop to generate the textures. However when I go to the CGPal website, the website comes up as unsafe. Is it unsafe to download? Are there any good alternatives to Fibershop that work similarly? Thanks
Hey everyone! :) It was great to see the progress being made on this challenge over these last two months! While the challenge may have reached the end I hope that won't deter anyone here from sticking with it and taking their piece to completion. Either way, I hope there are skills that have improved such that whatever…
Hey guys. So I'm been developing my own 3D editor program and I'm really torn about who my potential customers are going to be after my next release. Essentially, my program has the ability to do basic modeling, but also has a built-in ability for power-users to directly edit shader code. For the mass majority that don't…
hey just a heads up, i was looking at something else and this popped up and the deal for the tablet i got is less than i "paid" for the 1st time, i do not know which version i got but it says v3. but i generally got the same one and its been great this is for anyone interested i'd invest in one tbh you never know.…
Oh and BTW, after posting an image you can turn it into a link by editing the post, enabling html mode ("<>" icon in the post editing panel) and replacing the original "dumb" image code with this : - - - - - <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.artstation.com/YOURNAME"> <img alt=""…
Texture atlasing is usually performed on the code side of things. Meshes/textures usually get batched on export or at runtime. There are things artists tend to do that is similar to atlasing, when it comes to building modular assets. The artist could map multiple modular assets to the same texture sheet, saving draw calls…
