Re: Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map?
I made a quick test. 1. alternating triangulation 2. "good" triangulation 3. "bad" triangulation, random direction content: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/499159/tridirectioncontent.zip I see zero meaningful difference here, the projection is exactly the same, all the pixels are in the same spot, what waviness is here… -
Re: Blend_Overlay: bad behaviour
Notice your blend Overlay node is requesting 2 vector 3's for input. You were giving it one vector 3 and a float for input. If you want to use the overlay you'll need 2 append vector nodes. The first one should have the channel that you are overlaying in both input, the second append vector should have the first append… -
Re: Male base mesh (NSWF)
Just to add to what SupRore already said. From the side view, I think they eyes are too far forward. Also, from the 3 quarters view the cheek bone does not come out enough. If you look at your own face from the 3 quarters view in a mirror, notice how far your cheeks go back in space and how where your eye is there is a… -
Re: Huge terrain texturing
^ we did that on Forza 3 as well. Each terrain piece would have 2-3 textures that were mixed with either a greyscale or RGB blendmap. The roads are most certainly floating with edge alpha - they were doing this back in the Command & Conquer: Generals editor, too. CoH is using alpha blending on it though, to make it look… -
Re: Ossian Studios Art Test
This looks like a fun challenge.. 250 tris 512x512 lets make an low poly enviro thread with this spec limit and have at it :) You could have saved some tris on the chair arms by making them 3 sided instead of 4, from the distance it would be viewed no one would notice. Same with the torch stand, it could have been done… -
Re: Proxzee's "Blizzard or Bust" HQ
1-3 days. some people work very fast and can knock this shit out and still make it look awesome under a day's work. i think that comes with time, having a good workflow. i'm slower, and have been known to take experimentive approaches that can sometimes help or hinder my progress. i would probably take about 3 days… -
Re: Balmora Reborn(Environment)
This could probably be done with 200 triangles or less. I see you mention tileable maps and "this prop has 3 different materials applied", so if you're saying it's got 3 tilable materials applied to it that means 3 draw calls - a big no-no for such a small prop, I'd cut you some slack if that was for a whole building. A… -
UI scale issues
My current setup is this: 2 - Main Ultrawide 1 and 3 are 4k. 4 is a soundbar connected by HDMI. Before this Wednesday, 1 and 3 were set to scaling (150% and 200%) 2 was 100%. This worked fine for photoshop and such. But 3DS Max and other apps did not like the mixed scaling and wouldn't draw some UI elements. Some apps… -
Re: Seeking feedback for my WIP stylized UE5 environment.
Yo yo, lookin good! Here are some tips; Try not to have trees align with the slope of the ground. It makes the camera look tilted, and not like there is a slope. The lighting could use more creativity. Right now the bottom 1/3 is in shadow, and the top 2/3 is in the light. Would be nice if there was more chaotic lighting… -
Re: Don't Use AI for Replies
yea, disclosure that AI was used sounds good. As for the rest, I can really only speak to what I see and do on a daily basis. After a day's work of making 3d assets for my job, I spend an additional hour or more making art on the side, and this is what I've done consistently for the past 3 years. During that time I have…
