Layered Landscape Material Setup Part 2/2 Rock Material Functions The three Rock functions that sit above the Sand are essentially simplified versions of the Sand function - there is no distance or slope blending in these layers which reduces the number of nodes and instructions significantly.

[ QUOTE ] photoshop crashes on me sometimes when i erase stuff from a layer. 3dmax also crashes occasionally. saving is gooood =) [/ QUOTE ] The same bullshit happens to me and a few others here at work. Every once in a while Photoshop CS hates it if you erase or use the clone tool on a layer and restarting the program…
I just thought about how a lot of the times when painting symmetrical heads I get really annoyed with having to manage mirroring a head before saving them. I've never really seen many people discuss their methods so I wanted to see how smart objects would work. I think it works pretty damn well, and was wondering if any of…
Ace-Angel: "Just" greyscaling the diffuse and "calling it a day" is the wrong way to do a spec map - it's sloppy at best but I prefer to call it "plain stupid".

These two scenes are both WIP at the moment, but looking forward for some input or any word so far, as I can get…

I can't go into details for everything unfortunately due to time constraints. I'm sorry if you couldn't find the information you are…
