(Solved) Jagged edges and overall low quality normal baking
I'm really trying to get better with game assets, and hope you guys can help me improve... here are the meshes: Here's the uv mapping (where I think my issues lay). I made the corners in two different ways to make tests, Left corner is straightened out, right corner has a more natural curve (but still made some uv relax… -
Re: Distributed baking amongst networked computers with xNormal?
Not that I'm aware of, but if you have an Nvidia card you can use CUDA for rendering Normal and AO maps (Optix renderer). EDIT: Apparently it does support distributed rendering, but I do not know how to set it up http://santyhammer.blogspot.com/2007/07/xnormal-3110-beta-1.html -
Seams along UV edges in UT3 when normal maps are applied
This has bugged me for over a year now, figured i'd finally make a post. When i normal map an object, UV seams instantly pop into view. No seams are visible otherwise. Anyone know of a fix? First i nuked the red and green channels along the left and bottom edges respectively, still had a seam. Then i just threw a pure… -
Re: Normal Map: Meshes projecting into eachother
Yup Here's a low poly, a cage and a 2k normal map https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10105386/pc/table150606.zip I deleted the ornamental geo to make it simpler for me (many didn't line up with the high poly, and might also require exploding the mesh). I changed some vertex normal here and there like the table top where… -
ANSWERED: Export Albedo/Gloss/Spec at 8-bit, export normal at 16-bit
Is there an automated way that I can be working with a DDO project at 16-bits and when I export my textures via ddo it will export the Albedo/Gloss/Spec at 8-bit and export the normal at 16-bit? If there isn't a way, can this feature be requested in an upcoming update? Furthermore is there a way to choose what the texture… -

Re: HighPoly, Sub-D, Normal mapping. Where to start?
What's taking me the longest time to learn, is how to make certain shapes subdivide properly. In the case of a certain fountain I made recently, it was HORRIBLY painfull, trying to get the sides to blend correctly into the angled base front. Aside from that though, it's really a breeze. Painting a diffuse/spec map for a… -

Re: [3ds max] Automotive modelling for racing games question(s).
And, i am here again :) Carefull - long post here. Did a lot of research. Searched all possible options via google - seems like no one models mid-poly cars these days :D What i am trying to achieve: nice smoothed mid poly car model with proper reflectons and without normal map on its body. Stuff that we can see in every… -
Solved: How to change baked object space normal map direction?
Hi! I'm sort of new to DDO but i found my way to the effect properties that use object space normal masking to apply directional effects. When i open up the settings for it, the problem is that changing the sliders seems weird. I think it's easier if i just say what my spefific problem is. I have my dirt layer go on the…
