Random function?
Perhaps I'm overthinking this, but I can't seem to figure out a way to have a random(or at least different) pattern of using separate masks. I have to figure out a way to get certain parts of a texture masked off at individual times and then loop that effect. Since the material will be following the player/camera, I have… -
Re: The Bi-Weekly Substance Challenge (Challenge 5 & 6 & MeetMat17)
@capone: I think you should pull down the intensity of the cracks and the grunge on the height-map quite a lot, make it more subtle.

Re: Jarm Workshop Thread
Thanks for the comments! Hoping to get this in the workshop soon. I took a stab at responding to hopgood's concerns about the detail mask, deepening some of the cracks in the totem and applying the glow to those cracks: I need to make all the marketing materials for this. I noticed in the submission form, there is a space… -
Are retoplogy tools like Blender's retopoflow 4 worth it for non characters
Hi, For some context I do environment design (hobby) mainly, but I am starting to do more and more modelling instead of depending on others for models or purchased kits. I have been delving into making rocks both realistic ish (with brushes) and stylised with the base Blender brushes. I saw a Mark Kingsnorth retopo addon…
