Hi Everybody! kadeschui Thank you very much for taking over! eXecutex thank you very much for handling the last Challenges!

Re: Weird lighting artifacts on skeletal mesh (character) shadows ocurring over each poly
So I tried that and you're right it is the post process AO. Is there a way I can turn this off for skeletal meshes only without having to turn it off globally? I'd rather handle it via texture and if I make it soft enough that it looks good on the character it makes the environment look bad. Update: K so I think the issue… -
Re: Etta
Hey, the suit is starting to look interesting. However, you might reconsider those shapes on her boots. Right now, they seem very impractical and prone to hamper her range of motion. Maybe mirror those arches and take away stuff from the inside. Right now, the upper body seems to be missing a similar silhouette breakup… -
Re: Can someone please explain Inverse Square Law to me?
i could also imagine the strength of light-source, the stronger, the bigger is the radius of X where the light is at 100%, and after that just apply ISL, right? Of course im looking for a simplification. I am also working with 3DsMax and Vray, but i i never had to set up anything properly in it because im doing the… -

Re: Lighting issue in ue4
This will always happens between modular meshs. Just because they don't share the same baked texture. One way to avoid is to create one larger mesh. But that destroys the modular worklflow. Other way is to change some settings in the World Settings. -Indirect Lighting Quality 2 or higher should work -Decrease ndirect… -
Re: [WIP] First vehicle: ZiL-131
It looks like you have directional lighting baked into the diffuse? And it seems to be coming from more than one direction on different parts, the top left on the hub nuts and the bottom right on the tire wall. There shouldn't be any directional lighting or shading on the textures with normal maps, let the engine to the… -
Re: How to inspire artists to learn?
On top of the issue of the previous lead being an ass, there seems to be quite a lot at play here. Dustin has a lot of great points. Since a lot of ground has been covered already I'll just toss in a few remarks and questions. - Where is the Art Director in this story ? While Art Leads do play a huge role in the visual… -
Re: Hello Polycount! Piggy's Posts
Hey! Nice to see you on Polycount Piggy! One thing I'd like to point out is that you need to fix up your light a bit in your exterior scene. Make sure you have a colored ambient source that represents the color of your sky. Maybe a lightish blue. After you have that, get in a Big Direct Spot light that represents your main… -
Re: [Portfolio] Alex Kam, Environment Artist
Hey Alex, I've seen your 2 Environments (Hallway with garbage/debris & your Back Alley) before. I feel that the Garbage/Debris with the pipe scene is your strongest. It has the extra details (papers and trash on the floor and the broom) to really give some convincing storytelling. The back alley is generic, and I feel it's…
