Hi! I wanted to share a bit more of the math to make sure it's clear what's happening. So UE4 uses range of 0-1 for specular which gets multiplied by 0.08, and as previously stated this only gets used for nonmetals. So the default Specular of 0.5 gives you 0.04 aka 4% specular reflection for dielectrics. The reasoning is…

tbf pixologic were fucking awful with this sort of thing. I once had to wait 3 weeks to get a licensing/key issue reactivated - thats a full commercial license sold to a business, not just some pleb. they also managed to 'lose' a license once - no solution to it, the license just went away. i dont feel particularly…
Ok so, 1. userSetup.py loads the scriptfolder AND runs your scriptMenu.py main function. - to test if this is actually working print TEST in your userSetup file. When starting Maya you open the script editor and if TEST is printed in the output field that means the userSetup file was loaded by Maya. While doing this you…
Muzz, I don't think that that statement contradicts with what's in the original post because it's referring to the cultural misconception that the sun is stronger in yellow colour, when in fact it happens to be stronger in green. However, that statement can be confusing when it's not accompanied with an image of the sun's…

@Johnnynapalmsc You could probably do that, but usually you wouldn't use deferred decals at all for this. You would do all the blending in your material. A performant way to blend is based on vertex color, where your floating decal planes are identified by their color. From here on out I'm going to use the word "decal" to…
I hate cages too. And I have not noticed marmoset does it any different. But I am not sure, haven't used it much. I myself just have all vertex normals up in such case. it helps with lods too. And I keep same UV on hires model. Then I just have a material in Blender where input geometry node normals have been *0,5+0,5, for…
