Re: Dither opacity noise on animated mesh?
You don't need any uv for option 3. Shadow is like a projector. Pretty much like a decal. Its the object shown from the light's perspective. To simulate omni/point light, you would use a cubemap depthmap of the object, captured from the light location. For directional light, its simpler. Imagine like you place a camera on… -
Re: Point and shoot cameras?
I would try to buy pre-owned Sigma DP1 Merrill on ebay. It's more expensive but sometimes could still be found for a bit more than 300. The camera is pretty hi res but super slow pacing so not very good for photogrammetry series. A comparison with mentioned cameras… -
Re: Split decision, UE4 or Unity
If it concerns you, UE4 pretty much always requires a 100+ megabyte minimum for your deployed game no matter how simple it might be since it packages a lot of extra bloat assets that you probably never even use(default textures/models/assets/etc). Even mobile games made in UE4 are easily around 30 megabytes. That flappy… -
Re: new halo 3 shot
Eld, I think the difference is the first is an actual in-game screen shot and the second is pre-rendered from their "in-engine" trailer. The trailer that claimed to be 100% pure real time but not 100% pure x360. Perhaps after seeing some art backlash that happened against Gears they decided to start releasing more actual… -
Re: new Desktop suggestions any one?
Assuming you buy the parts individualy and build the desktop you can easily get a top of the line machine for less then 1500. Here's a rough breakdown based on newegg prices with top of the line components: OS = 100 (Vista Home OEM 64it) cpu = 200 (Core2 Quad 2.4ghz) ram = 170 (8gb ddr2) gpu = 170 (Geforce 8800GT) mouse =… -
Gelato rendering software.
I saw this little blurb over at HardOCP and thought I would pass it along as it may be of interest to you. I'll clip a piece out and post it, here is the link to the full article: http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_16775.html [ QUOTE ] NVIDIA Corporation (Nasdaq: NVDA), a worldwide leader in graphics and digital media… -

Anyway, this quote… -
Re: 3D Realtime Character [WIP]
I tried to use a custom shader in fx composer and also there the normal map looks fine with an other preset hlsl normal shader: when its right in maya (but its openGL) and right in fx composer (with directX), there should be a way to correct this within my shader.fx file. But unfortunately i very new to shader programming… -
Re: Post your workstation!
@Passerby Nice desk, sturdy and well put together lg w2353v I use to own 2 of these, they had some pretty strong blacks but sold them 3 years ago. IPS are great but expensive I would try and sell those for say $100 for both. Save up first and then go ahead and swap them out, working with 1 monitor can be pretty limiting.… -
Re: [UE4] Fontana Moore Residence WIP
Thanks JordaN, since your reply I tried all that and saw some improvement but had no luck getting the chairs to appear properly grounded. I'm wondering if the issue with the chair legs appearing to float was partly to do with how thin the legs were. I've got light bounces set to 100, however increasing the light bounces…
