Re: Skuther: Airship Village [Cry3]
I just landed in San Fransisco to attend GDC. Can't wait to meet some of you there! This next iteration is getting pretty close to final. Further edits to this project will come later this month, but for now I've gotta focus down on school work, an indie game project, and sending out applications. Thanks for the help… -
Re: Portfolio Critique
The technical challenges will be exactly the same, it wouldn't matter if you create a very good looking building or a very crappy looking building, you'll still have to learn how to create normal, spec and diffuse maps. So what could possibly be the benefits of starting out creating a factory:… -
Re: 50 .cal m-43 "pewpew" a.k.a. "Obliterator"
It's a pretty cool design, and beefy looking, though I think it's a bit too boxy from FPS view, but certainly decent. The texture is lacking tbh. For a rush job on a large model it's acceptable, but being that this is an FPS weapon that is going to be on screen a lot then it is probably good to spend even one extra hour… -
Re: Polycount vs Vertcount vs Textureres and Drawcalls
Ok awesome info - bare with me while I try to wrap my head around things. When you say spec map into the alpha channel the file is still considered "one" texture just processed a little bit differently? I've seen methods using one of the RGB channels as the spec - the trade-off being grey values hard set by that channel.… -
Re: Stylised Pirate (Cephlapod Dreams)
Thanks for the comments guys. It means a lot and is really rewarding that the work and time I put into this guy makes people smile :) @Frankie - Cheers man - nice to hear from you :) Hope things are going well on your end. You still at the last place we were at? @Brandoom - Haha, one of my friends is a massive Alestorm fan… -
Re: Caldeum UDK environment
Thanks a bunch for the input you guys, I'm just heading out so hopefully I can try to implement your suggestions tonight or tomorrow. Oniram - Yeh, the only material that has a spec and normal is the ground right now (and even that is pretty subtle). Once I get all the diffuse textures done I will play with spec/normal on… -
Re: Sketchbook: illybang
Hey, this is all looking great! You are a number of steps ahead of me and my development, so it is great to see you treading a path I hope to follow as well. On the latest texture, here are some of my thoughts. - On the broken glass, you have placed a rather strong spec highlight across it in the texture, and as you view… -
Re: New to baking normal maps for games objects
Seems like you're on the right page with most of these assumptions. Not sure exactly what you're asking so will ramble slightly. Your specs... Looks like you are using a software I don't. I usually bake in Topogun or ZBrush, but whatever works for you or your company is fine I'm sure. Moving obj or other files between… -
Re: Static Mesh Specular Highlight Problems, But Normals Seem Fine
the lightmapping has nothing to do with specular, unless you bake the spec in (what you should never do). the problem here clearly are the normals. first check your mesh for open edges and overlapping vertecies via X-view. then apply the edit normals modifier, select all normals, and click "reset to default". if the… -
