Re: CGMA Mod Environment WIP Thread
Here is an update on some lighting finally. I'm trying to wrap this up in the next couple of weeks. The course has finished and I've picked up a ton of knowledge about building modular environments so I'm looking forward to getting another one started. I think the scene is still a bit dark and maybe a little too saturated. -
Re: [UDK] StarCraft 2 Zerg Cave
Because I wanted to have some Zbrush fun and everything being unique. At work I always have to think about how to make everything modular and reusable and with my private work I wanted to not think about that and just have fun :) So not how I would build a scene for a game, but much more fun to do :D -
Re: Making bricks in zbrush, setting them up in 3dsmax first
The most common way to create buildings and modular sections for games is to lay out your texture sheet first, or while you're creating the model, and then mapping the geometry to the texture. This means you'll have a ton of overlapping UVs fit on to the same sections of a texture sheet, which is a little odd if you're… -
Re: Isabella's House tutorial
To be fair, English is probably not his first language. Cool time-lapse video here, showing modular building creation. All photo-source, but cool nonetheless. http://www.citiesxl.com/index.php?/content/view/1/32/lang,en/ I like that it's time-lapse, doesn't waste my time. Funny that many commenters thought it was… -
Re: The "curve"
No worries :) The closest in UDK that I know about is the spline loft actor. It's less "paint and forget" than normal roads, but it lets you use modular mesh pieces and to build your road (or whatever - it doesn't have to be roads) and then deform the shape using splines. If you want to see it in action, open up the… -
Re: [UNITY] Last of Us inspired Street Environment
Hello everyone! I feel like I'm making slow progress on this at the moment but progress none the less. I took the blockout of the buildings on the right and then turned them into modular pieces. From there I did a high poly edge definition and created a low and baked it out. Now that it's unwrapped and ready to go I'll be… -
Re: How do you begin modeling a room
Talbot, if it's for that hallway you mentioned in another thread of yours, I suggest building it out of modular pieces. Look at the supports on the ceiling, see how they split the hallway into sections? Model 1 section and then tile it, add detail like the doors ect, create a few textures, and you'll soon have a base scene… -
use prefab as interpactor
I want to build a moving train in unreal, but I can't find a way to use a prefab constructed from a modular set as an interp-actor so that I can properly animate and light each cabin with relative ease, but so far it doesn't seem possible. Is it? I'd rather not have to model each car individually and then animate the… -
Re: Whats your favorite retopology tool?
I loved the symmetry warp feature (symmetry for asymmetrical meshes) in Topogun 1+2, haven´t seen that feature so far in any other retopo solution. https://vimeo.com/60150584 Yeah exactly what Neox wrote.Here an older video of Wrap with less than 2 minutes showcasing its main feature. https://vimeo.com/181150122 Wrap from… -
Modular texturing and LOD
If I do a building cut up in different polygon (UV) sections with a architectural element on each (window, door, beam, pilasters) overlayed in the texture map, how do a do the LODs? This method does give a fairly high polycount. Does it demand a new UV and texture on the LODs? With the extra draw calls and texture it does…
