Re: Recipes for highquality AO bakes in Maya?
I think I need to just get it over with and switch over to Max, lol.. ughh. I know the "samples per pixel" setting in Maya, I'll mess around with that more later.. and also check out Xnormal some more.. <big sigh> :) thanks -
Re: Nicks Thread of work and Crapness
Ah, guess I should have clarified in my mini tut: the point of splitting the UVs is to distance them so that the border edges don't land on the same pixel of texture. Give them the same distance you would between any standard UV island. -
Re: Bakeing hell
Hi! Doing a bake with the attached files in Painter, didn't reveal the issues you show in your original post. The file contains just a single door element. Maybe the issue you presented is caused by the way UVs are stacked and due to the bake settings? Did you bake with your test file as well and reproduce the issue? That… -
Antinatalism themed video game | various highly detailed 2D environments and other content |
A V G The following art and other content is from a game project I've been occupied with for about 4-5 years now. In short, the game is antinatalism themed and has a quite pessimistic story. It would have various settings, from Earth in the near future (not shown in this post) to various alien planets and megastructures in… -
Re: Do people still create trees like this?
yeah. I agree it looks like a cool idea. Still I am not sure , for final result it goes as modified binary mask still for alpha test only or they render actual translucent pixels on the edges? Just a few on the very edge? So another render pass / buffer image? -
Re: Content aware tool photoshop - one click does it all
"Build out the bushes, the foreground, the sky.." HAHAHAHAHAHAH! That a genius boy! This seems so.. illogical to me? Its one thing to identify the surrounding pixels and make a well calculated guess - which I suppose, couldn't be achieved so accurately with computing - and another to guess the ELEMENTS surrounding other… -
Re: Trying to reverse engineer this texturing process
The edge "fuzziness" is called edge padding/dilation: http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Edge_padding It helps reducing bleeding of pixels to neighbour uv shells when the texture gets mipped (lod-d). What do you mean by "format"? Do you refer to the way things are arranged and combined together? -
Re: (Solved) [Blender] precise uv shell positioning, any tricks?
Thx, entering the precise value while constraining is a good solution. Just to re-iterate - with UVs -> Snaps to Pixel enabled - move your shell to a corner - g to translate - press x/y to constraint - enter number to translate with precise value. (also you can use - for negative number) -
Re: Need help with Mask generators (surface wear)
So confused a = no normal 'per vertex' b = normal, 'per pixel' Surely b is correct? When I see correct curvatures they have lighter tones towards edges,makes sense. So whilst method a fixes the glitches I don't get the white lines. Can't win. -
Re: Weird Normal Map Problem
You can't delete topology after the bake when using tangent space normal maps, as the data is based on the surface/vertex normals. Even if you spin an edge it will disrupt the pixel information. This can be done with an object space map and converted to a TS map after the fact. It's called skewmeshing.
