Re: Sphynx Cat Generator (Character Art + VR + Tech Art and Coding)
You may need to change your tangent space format inside toolbag when you bake. If that doesn't resolve, make your UV shells in your model have separate smoothing groups, then rebake and load the separate smoothing groups model in unreal. Looking super cool! -
Re: NORMAL MAP BAKING error 3DS MAX
From what it looks like, I would say you did not apply smoothing groups to your low poly. to do a quick test to see if this is the issue, select your low poly select all the faces and hit 90 on the smooth button. then re bake your model. -
Re: zbrush newb, subtool and normal mapping questions
Nah, I mean it's so small, smoothing wont make a bit of difference. TO be fair, there's far too much detail on the asset for the size it will be displayed, but as I said, Ill smooth it a bit, not a problem. That's besides the point, though. Going to look into taking it back to maya and caging and normal mapping it there. -
Re: Colt Dragoon pistol - cowboy pistol (crits and advices needed)
Really quick update; stole some time at work to keep smoothing everything (slowly but deadly, i ll get this guy ready) Also decided to not actually make that hole in the Lowpoly and jsut bake it this way, since the cylinder (not smoothed yet so grey wireframe) will always be in that position :) -
Re: Tactical Mp5 Wip
what are you export settings like in blender? when i export a LP i choose .OBJ (Selection only, include egdes, smoothing groups, include normals, include uv's) and i de-select apply modifiers so that sharp edges get written as smoothing groups. -
Re: [UE4] Oasis [WIP]
Hey, nice job. I really like how the rough rocks look. But, these smooth rocks seem a bit off to me, I'm not really quiet sure what is it. Could you show us the reference for those smooth rocks. And that small tree/bush looks great. Cheers! -
Re: Problems when projecting Normal in 3ds Max
All polygons on your lowpoly need to have a smoothing group applied or you'll get that faceted look in your bakes. You'll also get that along UV seams and split edges (make sure to weld with a low tolerance to see if it changes anything should smoothing groups not help). -
Re: Portfolio Crit - [Eric Kimberly]
Well, I personally would leave that out, since it instantly looks like you just didn't use any smoothing groups at all: Adjust the smoothing groups, make a proper normal map in ZBrush (with hard edges) and apply that to the stones/rocks. Will look much better ;) Cheers -
Re: Halcyon - The Burning Sky
How about something like this, Suburbbum? Edit on the right. smoothed the edge of her face as it was a bit too defined, shrank the chin just a bit, moved the corners of her mouth up a bit so her frown isn't so defined, and smoothed the nasal labial folds a bit. -
Re: Another normal map problem...
Yeah, smoothing splits and UV splits should match up. It depends on the game engine you are using, but the safest bet is to always have them match up. Some engines are okay with having UV splits that aren't smoothing group splits, but a lot of engines automatically create a split there.
