Re: Modo Indie 10 worth it ?
so i personally love Modo, Its the best modeler I've used to date. I went from Maya>Blender>Max>Modo, and I havent looked back yet. If youre trying to decide on whether to use Modo or Blender, i dont think either of those is a bad option. I know more industry people using Modo than Blender, but if your work is good enough,… -
Re: Substance painter merge all layers
I believe that is a limitation/intended functionality of using multiple mesh materials (imported into SP which splits them into texture sets). Each texture set is meant to be used by a chunk of the mesh that has unique UV's, hence each texture set gets exported separately. I'm not sure if you can project all your work onto… -
Re: Vent: Art Contract rates in forum are getting ridiculous
@kat if all was straightforward as you describe i would agree. but it was not. the rate/fee was posted in USD, not ant other currency. last i checked the AU has their own currency. so the poster did intend it (whether objectively or subjectively) for western audience. and even if the intended mark was EU the rate was still… -
Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
I don't think that splitting texture sheets can cause seams, and your screenshots with and without problems are not even from same mesh. Look like you have some bevel on those hard edges, make sure you split UV islands where you have smoothing split. ( tutorial on page 1 of this thread ) If you don't use a cage, make sure… -
Re: Modo vs blender for pure modelling and texturing
Sculpting in modo has felt pretty slick for me, although I know there are (were? might have been fixed in a SP) issues with high end GeForce 680 cards. What PolyHertz is on about is that modo allows you to create geometry that other programs would consider illegal. Edges can have more than two polygons on them and that… -
Re: Point light moveable limit
hmm, sp basically if you come up with a game light design that depends heavy on sharp stencil cold shadows, UDK is a no no. I wonder if cryengine 3 has similar issues. Thanks all you folks, i did light complexity test and it was red (i guess it was bad :D ) . So i removed all but 2 lights and it was fine again all green.… -
Re: Substance painter VS mudbox VS MARI
Back to answering OP question. I use to have a gtx 860 with i5 computer that ran Mudbox pretty well, It was the only solution I had for painting hi-res multi-tile textures, Because I couldn't run Mari properly, lots of display issues. Technically you can achieve PBR textures within Mudbox. Roughness maps is literally just… -
Re: WW2 Low-Poly German ww2 Vehicles & Tanks
I think you're approaching these with a bit of the wrong mentality. You need to base your polygon distribution more on the silhouette. Considering these polygon counts are very low, you're probably only going to see them from far away, so there's no need at all for the varying depth of the wheels or the outlines of the… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | January - February (76)
@nbanezart For texturing i only use substance painter (2019 version is only one i have :D) I mostly just try to be be carefully observe materials i use in the textures. For overall workflow i used was ->Blockout (for proportions) -> Lowpoly (i remade the lowpoly multiple times untill i got it right. Since first few had… -
Baking Issue with Normal Map (Substance Painter)
Hey guys, if I try to bake some geometry on my mesh, nothing happens and the normal map will black.(Screenshot "A" and "B") But if I change the Option "Match" in Baking window to "Always" (Screenshot "C"), SP bakes the normal map. (Screenshot "D"). It bakes the normal map wrong, but it did (no black normal map). Firstly I…
