Does anyone use Sampler AI or any other image to height AI?
Each update I waste some time to see if Substance Sampler AI does anything useful finally and always just shrug and go away. Image to material usually does something just marginally better than old crazy bump . Ads halos around height details and looks same awful at sharp light angles. Surprisingly it sometimes works… -
Re: Multiple UV channels?
Yeah I figured it might be an extreme example... We're using multiple UV channels quite a bit here. One thing is to use baked soft lighting vs. tiled diffuse and tiled normalmap (for detail bumpage). Another way we use it is to do effects like memory-efficient caustics, where you duplicate the same soft caustic emissive… -
Re: Manuel Huertas - Environment artist portfolio
Hi Harry & Shepeiro, thanks for your comments, as for the "weird" style...haha..., well maybe I have a "weird" graffiti influence...hahah...and I tend to do sharp lines, that might look a bit too cubic in the end, I will definitely work on that.

Right now most of the stuff that I can tell is sub-d, the edges seem too sharp virtually everywhere. A good rule of thumb I have is that if the edges are so sharp that they… -
Re: Is this normal?

Lights not working as expected.
I'm having 2 issues in 3.06 that I don't think I ran in to in 3.05 1. Lights in general don't seem to be casting shadows properly. I can have a light behind an object with shadows, ambient occlusion, and GI turned on, and the light will still cast through the object even though it's not there. 2. Spot Angle seems to be… -

Attaching the concept I had: American McGee’s Alice Liddell 2025 - (CYBER)PUNK! - MAD (MAX) ALICE Although I only made the… -

Re: Minienv/diorama : PBR and material definition practice
