Re: TexTools for Blender
@renderhjs The color id stuff looks great! Wondering though how someone uses this feature if they need more than 5 different id's? Also I'm not sure if you saw my previous post but I've had some issues getting a good AO bake using TexTools. Would be great if the user could enable/disable 'normalized'(or have this be… -
Re: [UV unwraping]Why do we always put car wheels on a separate UV map when unwrapping
Another trick is to bake AO for the whole model on a 2nd uv, then adjust the wheel material to use an AO strength of zero. This wastes a bit of uv space if those surfaces are never used by the AO texture, but the AO can be enabled easily for garage shots, like when the player is customizing the car. -
(3DS Max) How to approach constraint loops for shape
Hi all, I'm wondering if someone on here can help me work out some constraint loops for a model I'm currently working on. I've been having issues with corners of a certain are bulging out when put into Turbosmooth, the model is planned to be the high poly which I'll be using to bake normal maps from which means this… -
Fit to Terrain problem on Terrain
Hey guys. Having an issue with fit to terrain in Cryengine. I have a terrain laid out, and I'm trying to fit some trees using the vegetation tool like the default cryengine X trees. However, when I enable 'fit to terrain' on the material, the trees go crazy! The ones on the left are the default Cryengine trees, which work… -
Re: [WIP] RED V-Raptor camera, Plasticity practice
Update without any cool images. I liked Plasticity for its speed and for opening the last project on startup. Several seconds and you're ready to go. Backups were enabled in preferences too. What could go wrong? I'll tell you. It seems like after the second launch, Plasticity loads a file not from your project folder, but… -
Re: Any advice on while the current scene is so slow after Unfolding UVs?
I just checked again and here is what I see When I go to press 3 this message pops up I even tried enabling it to see if it changes speed then disabling it after enabling it to see if it changes speed But from the start the lag was so bad that I cant say it even makes a difference For reference may I know your PC specs? Im… -
Re: using bitmap in specular power slot.
Yeah I dunno, I was watching a tutorial on glass materials in UDK and they said to use a very thin highlight. I mean when you think about, the reason things like cube maps are used for glass is it's supposed to simulate a mirror-like reflection, which is enabled by the fact that the highlights on glass are so small, they… -
Re: Wireframe Over Color? (Maya 2008)
uhh if I'm understanding you correctly, he could use Mentalray's contour feature. Just go to the shading group of your shader, go down to the mentalray rollout and check on 'enable contour rendering'. adjust the edge width accordingly, then go into the render settings in the mentalray tab, go to Contours and check on… -
Re: Simple, artist friendly version control?
VCS: A version control system has it roots in programming.. when multiple people work on several text files any changes on the same file will be "overwritten" by the last one who changes this. So in a VCS everyone has an own version which then are tried to merge.. if there are changes in different location of a text file… -
[3ds max] Snap only to cage/low poly?
Heya, Does anyone know if there's a script or setting to do this? When working with an asset made up of several high poly meshes it can be awkward dashing back and forth between models to enable and re-enable smoothing modifiers. Any way to set the snap tools to only snap to a lower stack modifier version? I'm taking a…
