[Free Tutorial] - Map Baking Guide: Ambient Occlusion
http://www.paulhpaulino.com/the-vfx-map-baking-guide-ambient-occlusion/ Hey, guys! I'm happy to share my latest article. In this new tutorial, I’m going to share five different ways you can extract your Ambient Occlusion map (aka AO), and I’m also going to demonstrate a simple technique in MARI to use your Ambient… -
Do i need to bake my normal map again if i change my model details?
I'm rendering a face in Marmoset, she is already textured and i wanted to change some wrinkles in her face in zbrush, do i need to bake my normal map again after i do the changes? Thanks! -
Maya - nCloth bake to joints problem
Hey guys, this has been making me crazy for a while now I created a simple looping ncloth flag animation to export to UE4 using tutorials. I followed these instructions (Ive simplified them so you just know the steps if that helps without a wall of text) My problem seems to begin with the bind Loop/Create nCloth Cache -… -
Re: Baking normal map with symmetry mesh
Oh, I didn't know that :D If i had 3ds max I could try this, but since I working in Blender I need to find different solution. This one which I write few posts earlier, didn't work well and problem still exist on more complex shapes. I tried also move mirrored part -1 on UV, but it's still not fixing issue. Halp! @edit Ok,… -
Re: A question on low poly optimization
Everything will be triangles so you don't remove anything. One important thing about triangulation is that it can affect surface shading, so you should triangulate before baking a tangent space normal map (since if you don't, the automatic triangulation in the baker may be different to the triangulation in your modeling… -
Re: World Space to Tangent space maps using handplane problem
Hi Maega. Handplane 1.6 has uneal 4 support: http://www.handplane3d.com/handplane_1.6_beta2.rar An xnormal bake should look correct in UE4 on its own so you might try outputting an tangent space directly form xnormal and see if that does the trick for you. Most (all?) of the current bakers support a mikkspace output that… -
Biker
Started a new personal project inspired by Akira. This is a work in progress image of the bike. The style will be cellshaded and handpainted -
Bake normal map from one plane to another in max?
So I could have sworn I did something like this before, but it doesn't seem to be working now. I have a tiling texture that I want to rotate 105 degrees, so I can't do simple channel flipping to get there. I created one plane with the texture applied and tiled 9 times so it covers a smaller plane. I want to bake that… -
Re: Natalia's Art corner
The latest character is really dope. Feels like something from the Adam demo for Unity or a sci fi Dark Souls enemy/npc. Regarding baking, I would recommend you to try out Marmoset 3s baker, as you do not have to have a proper naming convention and you also do not have to explode your mesh. Good luck. -
Re: Gun turret
Looks cool. What to do after depends on what style you are aiming for. If its realism i would add some detail to the roughness map. And add some edge details/scratches/damage. I also would bake in Substance Painter. The bakers work pretty good and its really fast. So you wont need to add an extra software.
