Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Hey, here's an XML that I'm using to bake a test mesh. Unfortunately, for the Normal Map and Bent Normal Map, the specified Background Color doesn't affect anything in the final bake while the AO Background Color works as expected... any ideas why? <Settings> <HighPolyModel DefaultMeshScale="1.000000"> <Mesh Visible="true"… -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Hey, somebody know why when I load a custom xml some parameters are not read ? Here is my file :<Settings> <HighPolyModel DefaultMeshScale="1.000000"> <Mesh Visible="true" Scale="1" IgnorePerVertexColor="true" AverageNormals="UseExportedNormals" BaseTexIsTSNM="false" File="D:/DESKTOP/mesh_hp.obj" /> </HighPolyModel>… -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Fixed it! Always good to have friends that know programming... Go to .../xNormalLocation/ui/ and open up controls.lua with your editor Delete everything in it and paste this: --[[ xNormal UI generic controls (c) 2005-2015, S.Orgaz.--]]dofile ( xn_get_ui_path() .. "utils.lua" )dofile ( xn_get_ui_path() .. "input.lua" )--… -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
I use 127.5f as flat color. xNormal works insternally using floating point. But, at the end, if you use a 8bits format like BMP or TGA then I convert it in this way: Vector l_vN ( 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f ); unsigned char r, g, b; r = static_cast<unsigned char>(l_vN.x*0.5f+0.5f); g = static_cast<unsigned char>(l_vN.y*0.5f+0.5f); b… -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Cause your cage is picking up the other pieces where they intersect or are close. Just make an exploded version of the high and low poly. And a unexploded version for the AO map. :::::::::: Idea that I would love to see: A screensaver built in that when started, a certain port on their puter opens and the hx agent starts… -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Probably you're right but I'm soooooooo tired of Windows.... To write very portable application I think it's easy... the problem is to test the application and to swap the development environments... Unfortunately a hard disk can have only 3 boot partitions, so I need to turn off the computer, swap the HDD, boot the OS,… -

The current GPU renderer trades a bit of quality in favour of speed. Anyways, we're working on a new GPU renderer supporting AA. It's almost finished B) -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
If you're not using a cage, and just the basic ray distance settings, xnormal will split the hard edges, and you will get seams. Its best to: A. export a cage mesh from your app of choice B. set up a cage in the 3d viewer -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Max has green as Z rather than Y (because Max is Z-Up) so the outputs won't work properly with the converter straight out of Max. Try swapping the G and B channels of your object space map and giving that a go? -
Re: xNormal - MASTER THREAD
Hey Jogshy, how you doing? I have a question, is it possible to bake out the color ID's of a mesh instead of Polypaints/VertexColors? Or is it only (in my case) a 3DS Max thing? I tried using Write ObjectID (I applied a Multi-Sub-Object material with 3 IDs, with the colors R-G-B), but it doesn't seem to work. Cheers.
