Re: UDK is garbling my UV's
This is wierd tbh. This file was originally made in max 2012, and in my frustration I went back to 2011. The above file was giving me errors so I placed all the UV's inside the space for both channels and exported to UDK and got the same error message. I then copied all the objects form this scene into a new fresh max… -
Re: A solution to Normal Maps with mirrored UV's in UDK.
Hmm, I'm confused. I thought that the tangent is the angle of the geometry, and the normal is the vector perpendicular to the tangent. In other words, tangent is XZ and normal is Y. So what is the relation of UV's to the tangents? Because my impression was that having a flipped UV shell would be at odds with the normal… -
Re: Strange normal map seam.
Generally, for best results from Max-> Toolbag 2: 1. Triangulate before export, TB2 may triangulate quads in a different direction than max (or any other app), which will result in X shaped smoothing errors 2. For OBJs, Make sure "export normals" is on, "export smoothing groups" is not enough as SGs are a max specific… -
Re: Cinematics - UDK or Cryengine?
Personally, my top priority is artistic freedom, and the best possible visual quality. I saw both engines support DX11 features, but then, I don't quite know the details yet. I WOULD give some features up if it means avoiding technical trouble. I don't mind learning something more complicated, what I do mind is dealing… -
Re: Normal Map Bake Off: Xnormal vs 3Dsmax vs Substance Designer Bakes [Large Image]
Hey Quack, with Toolbag 2.05, we updated the xnormal tangent space as well as the explicit tangents loading (substance guys: this may interest you as well). Not entirely related to this thread, but if you load your mesh in TB it should read the tangents correctly now. If you have time/are interested, it would be cool to… -
Re: UDK texture issue
What's the main problem? Do you mean the seams you are getting, where the arms or legs are showing or the lack of normal map detail? UDK tends to need a bit stronger normal maps to make them stand out. And a specular map does help. You can also try adding a heightmap and using a bump offset node to make some materials… -
Re: AR15 Assault Riffle
Hey everyone just a small update, I took EarthQuake critique and did a little optimization to get it down to 35.7k just for the added practice and to showcase I could. A couple of error with using the same normal map as before but nothing a day of rebaking could'nt fix/bigger uv for majority of my stuff. I also combined… -
Re: Become more efficient: Free or nearly free app's & websites to help us do our jobs...
I'm putting in Recuva. It gets my vote 100%. I just discovered it yesterday: Saturday I filled a 4GB CF card with pictures taken of a sports event. While taking pictures I got a Error 99 (canon users know this one). So I pulled the battery and started shooting again. Fast forward to Tuesday and I wanted to copy the files… -
Re: OBSTAKILL- UDK 3D SIDESCROLLER!!
Hey thanks Guys! sorry for those who have gotten Error's I think its an Error that we have nothing to do with us, its probably an UDK thing Epic needs to work out. Eric I think you need to update your Direct X, I was having the same issue when we tried the game out, Upgrading should fix that message. As for Game Play… -
Re: Maya 8.5 NEX graphical glitching
It pisses me off to no end that I can't use NEX at home because of its horrible performance (graphics glitches, throwing up errors, crashing Maya, randomly closing Maya without warning) on my nVidia 512 mb 8800 GTS, but instead I get smooth, errorless performance on my ATI X300 Mobility Radeon...which is in my shitty 3…
