Re: beginner question in polypainting zbrush
You can use the mask by polygroups feature, but you will need to paint at a much higher resolution as polypainting data is stored in the vertices. At this low res you will get colour bleed/blending. You can also Ctrl+Shift click on a polygroup to isolate it>choose your colour>hit the fill button>repeat for other PGs. -
Re: Photogrammetry environment assets creation learning
Align cameras: Generate dense cloud, and delete unwanted vertices: After that generate Model and Texture: I have got a nice looking vase, with some strange neck due to very bad light and upside down position. But i'm very glad with the result. sketchfab… -
Re: Normal map artifact. Help required! Urgent!
I've never used Maya so I'm stuck on that front, sorry. :( Basically just trying to completely reset the normals so you can see any errors, fix them, then bake again. Someone else mentioned but make sure all of your vertices are welded properly/check for any open holes in the mesh -
Re: Normal Map - ugly spots
Thanks man, that actually fixed the vertical line, just had to harden that edge :) The ugly spots kinda fixed itself after I restarted my laptop... But just to be sure I made another Normal Map with Zbrush and combined that one onto the Xnormal one with Photoshop, so hopefully I won't see that again :) -
Re: [Portfolio] - Brandon Phoenix
I have a few suggestions... I would take out the labels of personal and professional. since all but one are personal, its best not advertise you don't have a a lot of professional experience. Another would be the light in between the stairs in Vertical Farm, it appears to be too large for the scene and should be an easy… -
Re: UDK, lightmass, Jagged edges, AAAARRRGHHH
have you tried to snap the UV vertices to the pixels of the lightmap? make sure the lightmap has the same pixel size in your tool as it has in udk while you activate the Pixel snapping. those lines can occur because UDK has to try to fill half of Pixels which is a reason for those jagged Lightmap lines. -
Re: N-Gons and Hardsurface workflow
For the LowPoly its good to connect all to Triangles before you bake. N-Gons in a LowPoly will cause Shading Errors. And try to make the Triangles as Wide as possible, not to long and dont connect 10000 Vertices to 1 Vertex. But it also depends on your Smoothing Groups. If the UV is completely Flat, then nevermind about… -
Re: Double mesh issue..3ds max
Yep its the slice, if you get artifacts there are 2 ways to clean that, clean the middle seam, or if its clean your treshold might be too large, if its really clean, ie. every vertex is right in the middle then turning it way down to 0.01 or even lower will do the job without collapsing other vertices but the seam ones. -
Re: Separate parts for skinning
Thanks for your answers! We are actually using Maya, i'm not the guy in charge of the skinning process but i need to handle this base mesh the best i can to start prototyping. We were planning to use the merged mesh and have a single skin for it, my concern was if the vertices need to be welded, like the arm or the head to… -
Re: How to properly unwraps UV's on chamfered polygons?
It is wavy because you straightened the vertical edges. If you were to unwrap this true to its shape and relax, it would form a 'C' shape. With that said, why did you model those small details in? Are you using normal maps? If you are using normal maps then modeling in small shapes and details like this is a waste of…
