Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
I think the main issues are that #1: you skewed it to much and dont have the polygons to support it. For example, whats those things going down the wall? the really segmented looks kinda throw it off and i cant identify it. is it a drainpipe? same goes for the corner of the building. In general when you can count the polys… -

[ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] do you have a good example of building geometry that demonstrates this technique? -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
Thanks for the example Jess...that's essentially the same sort of texturing method applied. Once these sort of objects get hit with spec, shadows, normals...the repetition fades away much better than traditional square-repeating. -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
Keen: I think you can change the FOV in UE3 rather easy so you can achieve such an effect as Adam made in his example. You simply move around the camera with ASWD if I recall correctly, have'nt touched ue3 much in a while though so I might be wrong. :/ -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
I really like the angle Adam gave to the shot on the scene. It's definitely a lot more interesting that way. The main thing I think that looks off in the scene is the lighting. You need more shadows worked into the mesh through baking or vertex color. Take a look at the gray brick trim around the door entrance as an… -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
This is a halfass explanation, but bear with me here: Basically you should cut your geometry to allow for the altering, stretching, skewing, resizing, replacing, and detailing the side of your wall in a fashion similar to this. Right now, you could do the entire wall with just 1x1024 texture that is like this, BUT you wont… -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
[ QUOTE ] I disagree. [/ QUOTE ] So let me get this straight - 30k tris is NOT as taxing on the engine as your "6 textures with lightmaps and shadows"? This is what you are saying? I am hearing you right? While my example was relatively primitive in the grand scheme of things, go ahead and put 6 textures and decals on the… -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
Looking good, nice progress so far, the bike is a nice touch. You might want to break the doorways away from the main mesh of the buildings and make them modular. Also you don't need to cut every window into the building. you can build modular windows that have a convincing window texture built into a plane that sits just… -
Re: Bruges, Belgium Environment
[ QUOTE ] Any company using UT3 is going to be more impressed with your ability to maximize texture density and texture counts than they will whether this scene were 5k or 30k tris. [/ QUOTE ] I disagree. While your above demonstration is nice, in the grand scheme of things texture density is trivial so long as its not…
