Re: [WIP] Normal Map Learning Thread
Generally low detail hard surface stuff does not need to be sculpted. I would say reserve your sculpting for organic or high detailed objects. This will save you time and give you almost the same result. Although the spotlight tool is awesome, been using it a lot lately. It is really down to personal preference but I… -
Re: Backpack Creates 3D Maps
Square wouldn't be an issue, considering those surfaces aren't any more different for the camera than an irregular surface, but heavily overlapped stuff could end up messy. Still, possibly several passes could fix that. Once this stuff gets up to a workable level it will be awesome, so many buildings and stuff to go into… -
Re: Opacity Map / UE4 Issue - Images Provided
Update: Tried translucency as a blend mode already with both my opacity map plugged into 'Opacity' and 'Opacity Mask' both neither are working. Having it in opacity mask with translucency set though does create a really poor blurred surface though. Not sure what's going on to be honest. Either way, still not getting the… -
Re: Wacom drawing area starting to wear out. Replacement advice.
I don't remember who, but someone here once suggested flipping the surface over to the other side. I haven't tried it myself. My wacom's surface was getting worn out as well, but I guess I just kept on using it until the worn out parts got even more worn out and now it's back to a acceptably smooth state. -
Re: Render Pass vs Draw Call
Well with virtual texturing its likely almost everything only needs to have 1 or 2 shaders, and anything that requires a special shader would not use virtual textures. Rage seems to only have 1 surface type for all environments, although it would be much better if some surfaces had real specular and normal info instead of… -
Re: Starcraft Gauss Rifle
Its still rather boring looking, you could place that thing on a flat plane and it would match the surface perfectly. I think you have way to many 90degree angles and flat planes, try to blend in some more organic forms to make it look more interesting, some curved surfaces would go along way in making this look… -
Re: Pixel shaders in Max
the fur effect is not trivial. it involves building extra geometry (fins and shells) in code, and set up texcoords for them ... you will not be able to just put the shaders on any surface, very often those surfaces need to be a bit special and have extra info. this special stuff however is very unique to the effect and… -

Nice Topology question for problem
Hi guys i search for better my modeling technique, about topology. I have some doubt for a topology on piece that have a curve lines, smooth hard surface. i have this to Retopology. What QUAD MODELING TOPOLOGY is correct for a piece like this? You can draw on imae if you want. Software BLENDER This is the SIDE VIEW, see… -
Mr. Quartz - Character feedback
Hi everyone :D This is my first post on polycount, and I apologize for my not really good english. I'm a student in video game art in belgium, and i'll show you my last work for my character concept course. The work was done in ZBrush and rendered in the new marmoset toolbag 2. Hope you'll like it, and thanks for your…
