Solved: Too White thumbnail material creation
Hello, I don't know why this happens, but when i "add custom material", the thumbnail created isn't the good visual as the creation one. I'm on the 2.1.4 (rolled back bugged 2.1.5). On old versions, i've never had any problems. Look by yourself, this is the 256 thumbnail created by 3Do : This is a screen during the… -
Call of Juarez
I'm on the last few levels now, and I have to say really enjoyed it.. for those who havent heard of it (not surprising considering I haven't seen a single ad) its a fps western game, kind of a linearish oblivion with guns (minus the rpg) You play a few levels as a half-mexican guy wrongly accused as a murderer, sneaking by… -
Re: How to approach baking clothes
"As it was a retop job, do the number of edges still need to be considered...?" Oh hell yeah. if you don't decide beforehand how many edges the cross section of each limb is supposed to have, you are guaranteed to end up with sloopy results imho. Heck, I could tell it was the case just be looking at that cuff screenshot,… -
Re: How to fix UV distortion on low poly objects?
There's no way to "fix" that. The uv coordinates are linearly interpolated between the 3 vertices of each triangle (and meshes are only made of triangles under the hood). It's just structural. Either you make your uv's closer to the geometry shape with a relax for instance, or by splitting them (which would be less optimal… -
Re: Generating gradient textures in Blender?
Yeah - you can use the gradient node, but also a ton of other things : baking an AO pass, an Object Space normalmap (the green channel of which will give a mask for everything facing up), tiling any texture that you want for details, which you can then mask using a texture painted directly in Blender, or using vertex… -
Re: High > low poly workflow (blend shapes) question
Outside of some very specific cases your sculpt will likely have zero relevance to the creation of the actual blendshapes. In other words, let go of your focus on the "pretty highpoly sculpt" and put all your attention on the lowpoly model, which is the *actual* asset at the end of the day. 99% of the time this is the… -
Re: Unreal Engine 5, Download Early Access
... "I don't think games looking "realistic enough" happened or will anytime soon. " Well, to be clear I mean in the sense of "realistic enough to convey a sense of recognisable space from the real world". I suppose one could extend it all the way back to GTA3 but that would be pushing it. Maybe GTA4. For racing games this… -
Re: Need help- How to go around with creating trees for unreal engine 4
Hi @VValkyr , the first and biggest issue is with the proportions. The leaves are half human size, and the truck is very thicc. Small branches are also completely missing. Compare it to some reference images and you'll immediately see what should it look like: Now yours: The trunk should decrease its thickness towards the… -
Re: To sculpt a mouth open or closed?
"... during the zbrush stage" If anything that's part of your problem right there. While Zbrush/sculpting is of course a very important tool when creating such assets (because they are, well, sculpt-like), you have to remain proactive about not letting that influence the way you think of your asset. By that I mean : you… -
Re: ZBrush problem: Weird grey area on subtool
ZBrush is a 2d painting program at its core, not a 3d environment. Rather than manage an entire 3d scene and all the baggage that comes with one, it instead tries to stick to basic vertex data as much as it can. This means there's no actual lights positioned around the model, and no material shaders as you would normally…
