Re: Generator Thing
As always it depends on if it was in game and where it would be in the players view. If it was a hub or something very close that the player would interact with then 1024 or 2048. If it i off screen and the player wont see it very much then 512 or so. If this is a portfolio piece then I would build the texture out at 2048… -
Re: M1 Carbine
Right now the wood grain (the rings/wood pattern/howeveryouwhannacallit) doesn't look natural. It doesn't follow the shape of the wood. Looks like you just randomly slapped a photo without paying too much attention to it. A few examples of what I mean;… -

Re: sketchbook: katerina yonce
First of all welcome. Not a bad start. Turned out pretty sweet. A few things to consider: 1. 2048 is way too large of a texture size for a prop like this. A prop this size should have a texture size of 256 or 512. If you plan on it being seen close up maximum size of 1024 but even then that's a little much for a barrel. 2:… -
Re: ShaderFX - Max 2011 - Shaders, shaders, SHADERS!

Re: Introducing Knald - Open Beta!
Hey ! I just tested Knald on my GTX 470 and it runs perfectly fine ! <3 I would just suggest the possibility to output textures bigger than the texture you load. I work on a little 512² normal map and I wanted to output a 1024² AO map (from the low-poly). There is no way for me to do this ? Unless I load a bigger texture… -

Re: "Don't sweat the little things... and it's all Little Things" - Workflow question...
Another suggestion, would be to take your end texture resolution into account. If you are sculpting down to more polies than your normal map has pixels you may be over doing it. :) 512 texture = 262,144 available pixels 1024 texture = 1.05 million available pixels 2048 texture = 4.2 million available pixels So with a… -
Re: DS specs
Polynurb just paint it at the actual res or don't go higher than 512 x512 if you plan on bringing it down. Photoshop also has an option to resample an image using bicubic sharper in the image size menu. I think the default is bicubic. You might as well and take a look at how all those options work to see how you like them… -
Re: Hair and Eye help.
Eye specular highlights need to be relatively high resolution environment maps with large shaped white spots near the center to depict the light sources that are reflecting on the eye. What we expect to see when we look at an eye is a tiny reflection of the world behind us. Painting a specular map can work, but the best…
