Is there a universal standard for alpha channels? I'm having an issue where an alpha channel file causes issues in the programs i've used like sketch fab and blender. I'm fairly new to game characters and i know it doesn't matter for cg renders. So i need to know the best way to save black and white alpha files. I don't…
hi, just wondering if it is possible for users to create their own custom menuset and append it to the menuset selection box, preferrably without spending a significant chunk of lifetime in front of a text editor. in that other 3d app sold by autodesk you can simply alter the menu structure by dragging stuff around, i am…
It would help to hide the armature, so we could see the model better. It would also help to show a shaded wireframe. Did you create this model, or did you download it from somewhere? I ask because the rig complexity indicates a decent amount of experience, yet you seem to be asking a more beginner-level question. This info…
Yes I googled sharpest lenses . Those would be Sigma ones for sony e-mount and they are not that much expensive too.

I knew I would be using Unreal for the final render because I needed to add the…
How should I add detail to the lion's head? I've tried sculpting in Blender and haven't been able to get good results. The subdivisions I get while sculpting always seem to come out jagged. Is there something I'm missing or some settings I should change to improve the quality of the geometry without going overboard on the…
In my experience for character blendshapes the principal or lead character artist will create the benchmark blendshapes and the pipeline along with a tech artist to support on setting up the tools, and the character art team will use the pipeline tools and benchmark assets to create the blendshapes for their individual…
Hello everyone, I have a little problem with my baking. I'm trying to bake this model into 3 texture sets but for the normal map of every one of them the red channel gets inverted along the UV seams. I've had some troubles with seams before but this is the first time this happens and I can't think of a solution. Each side…
