ndo height 2 normal - gradient ramps to slopes. possible?
Hi guys, I`m trying to get ndo to recognize a greyscale gradient ramp as a slope when converting from height to normal. but all I get is the hard edge where the gradient ends. has anyone tried this or got this working successfully? Nevermind... just got it working. I thought the grey to normal icon ment height to normal… -
Re: Toolbag 4 - normal map issues
UV orientation should not cause any problems. This makes me think perhaps something is set incorrectly, a of couple things to check: * Make sure the normal map is in linear space (click the gear icon next to the map and make sure sRGB is off) * Make sure you're using a tangent space normal map rather than an object space… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag Wishlist
Hey, I would like to add - A slider for AO strength / contrast AO bakes in general are not exactly realistic, and having to edit it every time in photoshop is a stretch because its a bit too dark or too linear. (Also if you enable the ground plane AO, it also gets extremely dark, with often little white space left on the… -
Re: Substance Painter map bakes look different in external render
Are you making sure that redshift is reading your roughness and metal maps as linear (redshift calls it RAW apparently), and not sRGB? https://support.allegorithmic.com/documentation/spdoc/redshift-for-maya-145653882.html This link has some info for exporting to redshift that might be worth looking at. Also note that (in… -
Re: Abandoned Space-Station [UE4]
Usually I use a point light and switch it to linear falloff and turn cast shadows off. That's a way to get to get a pretty constant low value in while retaining control. If you use a fog or environment colour it affects all of your map. Skylight won't help you at all in indoor settings. Btw.. to me it looks like you didn't… -
Re: Trenches Video
I enjoy this a lot however the quality drags it down as I can't make out quite a few details. Besides the quality compression my only crit is when the camera starts to slow down in some of the scenes right before an opacity change, I believe if you're going to transition with opacity you should have a linear change. On top… -
Re: Rigging Reel
Looks like a fun reel and character. I'd agree with @Arturow that adding in metacarpels in the hands would be helpful and making sure you have an FK option for the fingers. Also, it might help showcase the rig by putting it into some of the more extreme spiderman poses (… -
Re: Sketchbook: Daniel Swing
Maybe slant some of the bricks with a linear gradient, it looks decently random, but with a bit of Substance insight, you can see the algorithm at work on the spot. There is something about the coloring that looks more like water caustics than surface damage. About your room: maybe use a less noisy wall substance. Maybe… -
Re: Things that you LOVE in games
Maps that aren't too restrictive, linear gameplay is lame, I like to flank. Environments that you explore, rather than re-walk through ten times, or ones that are seemingly random hallways that you run through once. Halo 1 and the zelda games have a nice balance of being opening to exploration, and you travels through and… -
Re: Beginners Guide to Python
i started programming with the http://learnpythonthehardway.org/ - its really good the other one i used was http://www.openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english2e/ - i really liked the small excercies that are given after each chapter. dont hesitate - theyre easy to get along and teach you all the important concepts one…
