Re: POV: You need to create a big environment, where do you start?
It is similar to scultping or painting. First get in the biggest shapes. Focus on the composition. And, if it were a game, the gameplay. Then you can refine that a bit by replacing the chunky block out models with higher resolution ones. But maybe not the final high detail models yet. Then you can do a similar thing for… -
untitled udk level
Hey guys i've been building this level trying to go for a blade runner theme it is a WIP. I'm trying to work out on the gameflow and look, right now i was doing a quick pass of models that i did to see what it might look like. I was unsure if the method of doing things were right, and wondered if you guys had some advice.… -
Re: A few Xnormal related questions and such
1) You did not set the Y channel in the right direction when rendering the map. 2) Stretched/squashed UVs, not enough pixels to capture the detail, might need to show a picture of this to clarify the question. 3) Thats what a cage always is (a copy of the low res mesh that is deformed to have the light go the right… -
Re: Troll Death Knight 2D
this is coming along well but I think the values could use more work before all this detail. Also there are a lot of outlines on stuff which tends to flatten artwork. The lighting is also a little bit odd, like theres a light right near his right armpit but it doesnt shine anywhere else on him? heres a little paintover to… -
Re: Ernhardt, Gunslinger - Well Dressed Merc for Swagger [VR]
Great job Brians, I have totally missed this thread up until now. I fully agree with Sebeuroc on all the points. I would also like to add some points as well. -I think you should add more geo to smooth out his silhuette. His fingers look really low poly and his shoulders and arms look a bit blocky. - The folds on the arm… -

Which renderer for show-reel?
Hi! This might not be the right sub-forum for this type of question, but I hope so. My question is, which renderer do you guys use for rendering out portfolio and show-reel stuff? This summer I'm going to University and I'm going to apply to a few game-development schools, and in the application you are required to show… -
Fighting normal map's resolution
After learning how to bake I've encountered the next problem I'm sure everybody here familiar with - normal map's resolution. Personally I see two solutions here: 1)Pack everything VERY tight. 2)Separate meshes, do UV sheets for every one of them and then join them into a prefab inside a game engine (like for example… -

Re: DFAO Specular Occlusion - Alireza's Art Blog
Tip 01 - How much light am I casting on my world? PBR material systems introduce the need for physical lights. By that I mean we should have an idea of how much light we are casting on our materials otherwise we’re breaking the point of PBR which is achieving a more realistic look. Unfortunately the Sun in UE4 doesn’t have…
