Re: FAQ: How u make dem mats? Hands-on mini-tuts for making materials and texturing
Heya All ! I've got something that has been bugging me for a few days and i can't seem to get it right.

Making the mesh for a glass material.
Hi there. I'm just wondering about the best way to represent glass in Unreal 4 in terms of its mesh. I have a thick glass pane on the front of my restaurant. Is it better to model the glass with thickness or simply make the material double sided in Unreal? Or perhaps do I make the material double sided AND make it thick… -
Re: Import of .ASE is deleting material assignments
When you apply a materials to max objects it will automatically create a sub object material unless they are seperate objects... If you name the material the same in max as the material in unreal it should automatically assign the materials to the material ids... if they are loaded... at least it used to work that way.… -

Just thought it might be interesting to have a… -

Even though "Make Material Attributes" has "Refraction", I don't see a way of having one Function be Glass (i.e. Blend Mode =… -

Is it a case of finding where they are saved and deleting all the relevant files? I also noticed when trying to find them that… -
Material Id's in UE3
I have a model that in Max has multiple textures and multiple Material IDs. I am told that UE3 will handle this with little to no problem. What I can't seem to figure out is how to associate Materials made in UE3 to the material Id's specified in Max. Won't I have to rig up a separate material for each ID in UE3? A shove… -
[SOLVED] Textures disappearing in (some) Material Instances
Hello. I'm trying an interior viz project to get my hands dirty with UE4. It's my first real project using the engine. The issue is that I made a master material to cover most of my material needs. Now, some of the material intances are showing up the generic gray boxes instead of the texture maps. In the first image,… -
