Re: Frustrated Student Contemplating Dropping Out To Work (Please Advise)
In the interviews I did, they were asking what else I could do apart from 3d modeling. Programming was a question that popped often, as well as rigging/skinning. So, my take on this, as a freshly hired junior in Europe - for people with little to no experience working in the field, studios seem to be asking for more than… -
Re: Zbrush 4R7
I'm having strange graphic bugs from time to time. It looks like zBrush 4R7 having problems with the gpu. For example when i'm using masking it's displaying a black rectangle instead of the masked polys. But not the full one. Only a corner of it with a transparent fading down. It disapears after a short time. Same on… -
Re: Krita--Master Thread and Google Summer of Code 2014
New development builds: https://krita.org/item/last-two-weeks-in-krita-and-development-builds/ Many new features, amongst which(non-destructive)transform masks, multiple documents and import and export of alpha-masks! I don't know how to embed videos here, so please check out the link for said goodness in detail! -
Re: Faking SSS for realtime?
Actually I think it was because I didn't use a normal map texture, I just used the light and camera vector dot product. And with trees I used transmission masks that were boosted beyond 1 (brightness that is), same thing with colour. I just multiplied the SSS mask with a 3-vector constant before plugging it into… -
Re: Texture painting - alternative to ZBrush/Substance Painter?
3DCoat can paint pixels (raster), vertex colors (polypaint), or ptex (uv-less resolution independent painting). The layer system supports blending modes just like Photoshop, as well as layer groups, and can be exported/imported as a PSD easily. Masks however use a unique system and are not transferable via PSD, except as… -

Re: Seams on clothing
For seams that noticeably overlap like that, I usually mask off the side that will be underneath. You can then use a combo of sculpting and little nudges with a move brush to make the unmasked part overlap. If you've been careful in your base mesh creation you can have these panels represented in the lowest subdivision,… -
Re: T-34-85
I never has such noise on my normal map. Also, try taking a cavity map, and mask it out with its high contrast inverse so that only edges are selected. Then convert it into a path. Finally, you can run any brush you want along that path to generate very useful masks for rust and paint... with the right filter style. -
Re: Vertex paint -Mesh or Poly
That's actually a really good idea, I've never considered using vertex colours as a mask, as you would a pixel mask to blend textures etc. As per your other examples, obviously some 0-1 vertex colours would be used to scale the amount of wind applied right? But what about the water, what exact is bending water? :D -
Re: Maya transparency rendering issues
Yes indeed, it's the same in any renderer - you have to mask out any other maps you're using with the same opacity mask, since the specular level (or reflection, or whatever similar maps you're using) on those parts might still have some value, unless you already filled those areas completely black in your textures.
