Re: State of the polycount, Summer 2008
I think it has something to do with teachers, telling their students to get plugged into a good online community and we happen to be one a few teachers mention. Its not a bad thing it just happens to bring in new people who want something from the community first without ever sticking around to put anything back into it.… -
Re: Stacking Double RGB Vertex color Info into 1 Vertex Painting potential solution.
Might have completely misunderstood this section of the talk; interpreted the stacking of the texture sets as two chains of vertex colors and not one chain. So instead of lerping between just A and B on the red channel you are lerping between A, B, C, & D on the red channel, and on the Green channel and on the Blue… -
Stacked UV Shells and Normal Maps
Looks like I've learned the all important lesson today that stacking UV Shells when using a normal map doesn't exactly work. That begs the question though if there's anything I can do about it. Flipping the normals isn't an acceptable solution in this case because I'm using a mental ray fast sss shader for sub surface… -
Answered: 3DO Baker gets stuck at 50%
I started texturing my model untill I noticed that some parts of the model did not seem to have the textures applied like I would expect them to. After inspecting the maps, that I checked for baking with 3do, I noticed that the skin parts of my model had the OBS and gradient maps completely flat. So I tried to reload the… -
Re: Question about baking with triangulation
It's not so much of an issue in Maya because non visible edge triangulation is forced to go one way (last time I checked) you can flip them but they go right back when the mesh is re-evaluated so Maya guys normally define the edge and it sticks. In max you can flip them however you want which can be problematic if an… -
Need critique - I feel stuck
Hello everyone, I've been lurking polycount for a while now and I've been meaning to make this thread, because I'm a concept artist, but I don't know how to improve my work. Digital painting is my focus, but when I shoot for realism, my colors always end up feeling bland and I take a really long time to do anything… -
Re: First Gun Model
A few thoughts: The stock is probably too curved to fit nicely into your shoulder, it would wrap around too much. Most guns have fairly flat shoulderpads with slight bends. The trigger seems to be too close to the stock. With the shoulderpad resting on your shoulder, your arm would have to be bent out and then sharply back… -
multi textures to one asset in ue4? new and stuck.
So how do I attach all my textures to my asset in ue4? ive tried looking on youtube and only see videos for applying 1 texture sheet to a single asset. So I get to the point where I import the mesh combined (into ue4), import my textures from substance painter, create a material and thats where im stuck. how do I get the… -

stuck in a uv normals seam hell hole
Hey everyone, Im really stuck, going round in circles. I've abandoned my model until I can get the workflow down on a simple box but i cant get the seams right. So i have a low poly cube made in Maya, taken into Zbrush, subdivided and some basic sculpting just for testing, then exported a low poly and a high poly out from…
