Depending on what ever Valve does for the next event I sincerely hope we get something like the Spring2014 event where they tell us what they want theme wise, and also say something like we will accept sets and singles. With the current trend of added items though I feel working on sets atm is the best chance of…
I really really want to like this software, but DDo is so unstable it's killing me. 1.6 Won't let me open and re-save old projects, 1.8 doesn't set my layer mask when I pick a Material ID colour, and occasionally just crashes for the hell of it. I'm on a very capable system and I'm using a legit paid-for version (by…
Hey Kintaro! To get this effect in DDO, one must simply use the DDO menu --> Add New Map --> Opacity. Once you add an Opacity map, you can set any of your existing masked layers to any color range you desire for proper opacity within the map channel.

Dont overhaste your steps, Its sometimes good to lay it aside for a week, and get back on it and see what you can change.

Looked everywhere but here. Don't really need the lighting subdivision now. Thanks that solved my problem. :thumbup: Although I still don't understand why my mesh is set to "0" and the Epic mesh was set to "1" and the significance of that. I notice when I changed mine to 1, changing the lightmap resolution wouldn't change…
I am a Final Year university student currently working on a concept art based project for one of my modules. The hypothetical game brief is a stealth-based action / FPS game set in a city based around themes of surveillance and controlling appearances. The protagonist is a spy operating in an environment where everyone is…

Hey another quick update. Had a lot of problems I had to trouble shoot specifically with the lighting. Kept getting blotchy shadows on the wall and it turned out it was a setting under world properties having to do with normals. Anyways still a lot to do, since I'm learning UDK as I go. Does anyone know how to properly do…
