Just got back from Christmas last night. Been testing out the flag this morning. I also worked a bit on fixing the glossiness ( still fixing it though). Here is a screen of a quick test this morning. Planning on wrapping this up by tomorrow!
Looking good. Just one thing, we don't really know what the collar is, looks strange. I'm curious, how do you do this kind of wraps around the legs ? I tried different ways but it's always crappy or painful...
Thanks! I just made a really big cylinder and cut it in half so it sort of wraps around, then slapped some painting on it that I did a bit ago. The renders don't really look all that better, it's just darker and smoother haha.
Adjust the texcoords in such way to counteract the screen aspect ratio. You can use a 'TexelSize' or 'ScreenSize' node to make it atomatically work for various resolutions. Also change your textures AdressX/Y setting from 'Wrap' to 'Clamp' to avoid tiling.
A few more images as I begin to wrap up for now... This was all created for a kind of short event, but I plan on continuing to expand this set of assets so I can do some more advanced level building in UE4 later on.
an action would work. although, rather than nudging, using an offset entry in your action might work better, as it's main purpose was to help with tiling a texture and an offset is able to wrap if, for whatever reason, you needed it to. thanks for the comments. -kp
The forearm feels really flat, in this pose I believe the radius crosses over the Ulna and the ridge muscle which wraps around with it (correct me if I am wrong) I would take a look a the Bridgeman and Goldfinger books for reverence, they are awesome!
Hey everyone, Just wrapped up my creep den and turret today. Thanks to all who stopped by with feedback and kind words, really appreciate it! Had a lot of fun with this contest and learned a lot. FINAL CREEP DEN: FINAL TURRET:
i never actually knew the EQ2 characters looked THAT bad. Jeezus. I hope the artists have been fired. And if by chance those artists visit this forum....I hope you've been fired and beaten severely with clubs wrapped in barbwire.
awesome thanks for the explination, really handy writeup. couldnt you use wrap mode to make it so you can sculpt to the edges seamlessly though? or atleast mostly seamlessly, im sure you would have to offset at the end to be sure.
