Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge May 2014 (19)
Hey Fidrik thanks for the crit and compliment. Your issue sounds most likely related to camera position which is natural. You move the camera and the lighting angle changes. You might try changing the roughness, metallic, and spec from a distance to see if that can't fix it. It could also be texture compression settings… -
Re: feedback on medieval asset kit progress for uni project
Nice! Remember, the thickness also needs to be on the grid, and the heights of each of your pieces. It's important to try making a whole building with your modular set, to identify weaknesses and omissions. Plus it will help sell the set, by showing an end result. Have you thought about textures and materials yet? -
Re: Why alpha gets cropped in zbrush?
Hm, open alpha palette and check settings there? Alpha fade isn't on? Maybe change brush just incase it's some brush setting mucking it up. If you want to upload your alpha I could give it a go. Should be a simple fix though. Try using Projection Master or Zapplink perhaps? -
Re: The People's War - WW2 VR Experience [UE4]
Thanks for the comment :) they're definitely all good ideas. I will be working on this at uni until like March/April time so I have a while to polish this, at the moment I was just aiming to get most of the larger props in. I'll be sure to get more of the storytelling elements in as I get further in. I've been planning to… -
Re: Sketchbook: Kaitlin B.
This is awesome, love the diorama, and the direction you're inspired by. I searched this game and found what I hope is a representative image: This game looks really cool, great inspiration! It's important to note that this uses lighting and post-processing to change the "look" of the assets. I think they are using PBR… -
Re: displacement map (height) baking problem in Toolbag
The trick to getting good height map bakes is setting up the min and max values. These represent the min and maximum distance from the low poly, in scene units. Generally, if you're getting a flat gray bake, that means these values are too high, so try setting them to low values like 0.1 or 0.01, and adjust the settings… -
Re: [Chivalry] Mason Vanguard Blade of Generations
Not to sound overly critical, but I feel the idea could work in another setting,it does not fit into Medieval setting. Knights were the aristocratic elite of their time and there is no way they would want to set foot on a battle field with a sword that would look shabby in appearance or even fail them in battle. I see what… -
Re: Rendering in Max
Well damn you both. I already made an image for it. hehe The blue is taken from the material window, the red is from the bitmap properties. Note there how I set the diffuse/ambient colors to white as well as the self illumination to 100%. Setting the colors to white will get rid of that ever-so-slight shadow you will see.… -
Re: how do you get rid of uv seams?
I followed your steps being... in 3dsmax: -give everything the same smoothing group -export as an fbx with only smoothing groups, triangulate and preserve edge orientation selected in SP: -upon importing select 'compute tangent space per fragment' -bake your normal map in SP (not much is specified here, i just kept the… -
Re: ZacD's "getting my shit together (and finished)" Thread
I'm going to put my photography nerd hat on here. While I agree the end result looks very nice, I dont know how productive it is to "bake" this sort of post-effect look into the actual textures. The photo reference was edited heavily in post The ingame result should rely on post for the same effects, if going into an…
