Re: "clean" topology?
Even when working in other engines I often use UDK to test ideas, as you can see what's coming out of any node at any point in the pipeline. Writing raw HLSL using text based code is NOTHING like using the material editor even if the end result is a HLSL shader either way. -
Re: "clean" topology?
Oh come on stop being so defensive :P You never explained why Cry Engine 3 is superior in almost any way either. ;) -
Re: "clean" topology?
I agree. But.. Only if you know how to make shaders. I for example have no idea. My usage of Material Editor was dumped down to using multiply and lerp nodes. And on other hand if you know how really make shader you can write in HLSL anyway. -
Re: "clean" topology?
They both have advantages, CE3 is more easier to get setup and have a great scene that looks awesome, great for portfolio. However UE3 is a more optimized game engine, more options then most engines and very stable, which is why it is the leader in most used engine in the game industry. So if your a intermediate user(with… -
Re: "clean" topology?
I don't think the long, thin triangles are as friendly to the rendering. The wiki mentions something about them being sub-pixel ('having lots of triangles that contain very few pixels/triangles smaller than a pixel will lead to stalls in filling the pixels and thereby hits the fillrate'). So I wouldn't be surprised if the… -
Re: "clean" topology?
@Olli Well, it might be the end for you, but for your asset it's hardly so. Model has to be uv mapped and baked with as little smoothing groups as possible (spartan optimizations make this harder) It will be later passed down to animators for skinning and exported to engine. In engine shader artist might come up with…
