Need Helpful Tips for High to Low Poly Baking
Hey Guys, I'm trying to get into High to Low Poly Baking However, I have no Idea how to approach it. There are so many settings and configurations. I do not know how to start. An example is the Sci Fi Floor tutorial for 3d Motive. https://www.3dmotive.com/f100101 ++Link Fix++ I have not watched it but I wanna make a floor… -
[Blender TexTools] Baking Diffuse Color
Wondering if there are any Blender 2.8 + TexTools users here: - I am trying to bake a Diffuse map by reading the Base Color value out of Principled BSDF materials. - Despite all other map baking to be working, the Diffuse baking always come up black. - I understand this baker has a dependency on Cycles, so my question… -
What's wrong with my xNormals Bake???
i keep getting this result where it seems like a channel is being completely missed. it happened more than once, i've always managed to make it "reappear" but i don't know how i did and what is causing the issue. both meshes have been triangulated and i did all the basic procedures to bake this kind of texture. I've used… -
Re-bake maps in Substance Painter to work with smart materials?
Hey guys, does anyone know if there is a way to re-bake or generate new maps (normal, curvature, AO) in substance painter that would combine the original high poly detail and any *new* height information? For instance I bring in a low poly and bake some base details and smoothness from a high poly the normal SP way, *then*… -
Biorganic Kamen Rider — WIP
Hey everyone! I'm ABR, a self-taught 3D artist about 4 months into learning Blender with roughly 1 month of actual sculpting experience. This is my first major project and I'd love any feedback or critique from people more experienced than me. A bit about me: I'm actually more of a topology person than a sculptor — which… -
Good looking baked lighting, reflections etc
Hello people, I've started work on my first game, a web based 3D racing game, and would like some advice on how to bake better looking lighting than the standard lighting through render to texture with the scanline renderer, which seems to be just gouraud shading. Ideally something to make the texture look more… -
Re: How do I know what should be normal mapped/baked in an environment?
You can bake everything if you want to, but you can also keep baking to absolute minimum (close to zero). Take a look at the environments in Alien Isolation or Ruiner for examples. Large modular pieces wouldn't be baked (like you said, walls, roads, etc), but made with higher res geometry (chamfers) and tileable textures -… -
Re: Can't bake diffuse with xnormal
Are you trying to bake polypaint? If so, you should bake vertex colors instead of base texture. The base texture bake in XNormal is so that you can mask out your UV islands in Photoshop so you can pad the borders cleanly with the XNormal filter. Also take a look at this thread… -
Re: do i have to bake complex curtains made in marvelous?
The issue you are having comes from ray missing error your baker does . When low res surface probably folds into itself or having narrow gaps and no way to separate parts telling what specific point ray should see/ stop at and what shouldn't. Possible solutions: 1. More low res shell encompassing the thing around having… -
Re: Polycount of the high poly in the baking process
You may be confusing explode baking with not being able to bake due to massive polycounts? Zbrush still exports vertices so if the tool is 20 million polys then this is what the baker is loading. The higher the polycount of the high poly mesh the longer it will take Substance to bake. There is a limit to this and if it's…
