Re: How can I avoid wire bleeding effect after baking normal?
Hi. Yes. I found that too long triangles are creating artifact so I'll not make them as long as I can. As for smoothing group, in my opinion, choosing SG for single or multiple doesn't seem to matter when it rendered by realtime like Toolbag does. But when it comes to non realtime method like static light in UE4, I see… -
Re: Blender Mega Thread
A few more runs of Moore's Law and we might be able to get 4-8 passes going in realtime. A transition away from, and all the problems of, a scanline rasterizer and towards a system with full-scene realtime reflections and raytrace lighting with better control. It doesn't appear to use any form of caching/reuse of fragments… -
Re: Using alpha planes in a scene, how do I optomize them for efficiency?
For non realtime rendering: Render times are pretty much completely dependent on your render settings, not triangle count. Just dont use fancy lighting stuff and it should be fine. In a real work environment you would probably have hundreds of depth map shadow lights and/or other cheap to render lights, no radiosity or… -
Re: Lack of Fantasy RTS
The turn-based world map side to Total War and (to a much lesser extent) DoW2 or whatever is reminiscent of the Civilization series; it is turn-based strategy. Like the board game, Risk. It sounds like you are more a fan of realtime basebuilding and unit control? If you ask me, that is classic RTS, present in any Warcraft… -
WIP - Pat Goodwin - Environment
Hello friends, I'm a huge fan of Michael's brushes -- the lifetime membership is the best deal in 3D -- and immensely excited about this contest. The environment description immediately called to mind two of my greatest personal inspirations Lebbeus Woods (weirdo architect who never really built anything) and Viktor… -
Re: Questions regarding topology
Pretty much its going to be used for everything from realtime animation/viewing and realtime interaction (via interactive surgery or even haptics based interaction), to traditional video style animations and renders, even single frame beauty still images. Its going to have to be a base for a zbrush sculpt, its going to… -
Re: WiP/Near Done: Advanced Lighting Techniques
when he said the realtime thing I assumed he meant the lighting principles and theorys, not necessarily the tech? Because obviously caustics, for one, are a fail. Also, whilst there are G.I realtime solutions (I think!), I'd in the future (if you want to go realtime) start working on manually placing and colouring up fake… -
Re: Physicaly based viewport shader for max?
I am not sure there are any freely available. I wish there were some nice PBR viewport shaders for max. Meanwhile, wouldn't the built-in mental ray and it's custom shaders suffice if you are just looking for some portfolio renders? I know it's not real-time, but the Realtime and Offline rendering worlds have been… -
Re: Is Sub D/Poly modeling dead?
"...would you guys suppose this was sculpted or modeled? I've tried sculpting this before and it was very messy. I don't understand how to get perfect clean sculpts without it looking a little off" Blender - primarily using a mask brush + texture (for the sculpting bit scrub forward to 5:37mins) GoW Axe Blender - a Grant… -
Can you tell if I used cry engine without a doubt?
What do you guys think the odds are that someone would be able to tell 100% without a doubt that I'm using cryengine if I just went ahead and put a video on kickstarter anyway without a license? A few things to me that give it away are- the standard ocean, default sky, and the fog. If I change all these however now were…
