Re: Unusual problem with contour rendering while batch rendering in Maya 2015
Solution found. I'll post it here for anyone who encounters a similar problem. So contour rendering in Maya 2015 doesn't work quite the way it used to iun 2014. Single frame renders will work fine, but when you try to batch render you'll encounter problems. This is because maya 2015 now uses contour_shader materials that… -
Re: corner vertex baking - maya mel/python
So, the work flow I use in short: 1) Import your highpoly (or a lower division if Maya refuses). 2) Create a new color set with clamped flag on. 3) Rename it to "curvatureColor". 4) Run the r7_vertCurvature to get the curvature colors you want. 5) Export using xNormal SBM format (enable it first in your plug-ins). Make… -
Re: [UE4] ZS25 Civilian Mars Rover Project [Substance Designer]
Hi everybody! Little up over here.. Very little update this time, starting to get my head around the UE4 lighting and cubemaps a bit better this time, I changed the rover coat color, pondering whether to use the new clear coat shader, but to be honest, this vehicle has got limited amount of shiny metal, with the layers of… -
Re: help making realistic "in the rain" look
If you want to make it realistic, create a hemisphere and scatter it with a point cloud and a weightmap on top of your mesh. So you can paint where you want the raindrops to be. And simply assign a nearly black material with high spec and refractions enabled. When you´re only going for some special textures because its… -
Re: [UE4] Small foliage scene
@Mant1k0re, Thanks man. :) @armagon, I photo sourced the ferns. Grasses are simple high poly render to texture. @mache, Hmmmmm. Going to give it a try. Thanks for the tip. :) Do you know of a way I can monitor the performance difference between enabling and disabling Mips? @Obscura, Here I have adjusted the alpha, all… -
Re: Help with Mudbox Displacement maps
it would be easier to find a solution if you can post more images of your mudbox sculpt, your model/wireframe inside Max and screenshot of your displacement map. you dont really need a "displace" modifier. displace is for displacing mesh before render. you dont even need turbo smooth unless your model is too lowpoly.… -
Re: Maya 2015 : bug reverting Uv's modification at export + de-assign material
I checked permissions, as I said only UVs were reverted and material replaced, my new meshes are saved. So, after some test, i managed to solve the problem (? well, solved for now). I renamed the meshes who were all sharing the same name "platform" but in differents groups and different topology. I also reassigned… -
Re: Photogrammetry/retopology Question
What is this guy trying to achieve? "Oh look what my new scanner can do...." no mention of all the manual labour that you have done. It seems a bit ridiculous, in honesty. Although it is a good opportunity for you to polish your workflow. I would go with a manual retop. Shouldn't take more than a good afternoon/evening of… -
Re: [Maya] "Smart" perspective camera, anyone?
haha, yes, viewcube was my first though as well. there's a script for blender that enables camera snapping along with perspective toggle and apart from the axis constraint while orbiting pretty much works like the proposal but after trying it i have to say that adding shift to the mix is just one modifier key too many for… -
Re: Temple Angkor Wat
scotthomer: Thank you! Yeah, I would love to go there and see it in person. Maybe one day. Visceral: Hah! THanks! Yeah, I'm going to keep poking around in that chain to see if I can figure it out. I have it enable in game view supposedly, but still no dice. Grey: Thanks! Yeah, thanks for giving me feedback throughout! It's…
