Re: Pelt Mapping! How is it?
Crazybutcher's plugin is great and in my opinion is how the damn pelt mapping function should work. Period. non of that shit of having to rotate anything. Waste of time. I love how Pelt lets you specify seams, but then instead of just unfolding like say chiliskinner would, it would break your mesh along the seams you… -
Adjustable uv's possible?
TLDR; The idea behind the thread is to make it so any resolution is possible along with adjusting editing the Uv's at anytime for any reason say (better packing.) I'd like to be able to adjust everything and not have to redo say a finalized texture. Long: Say you have a box, a cylinder, and circle, and a triangle, they are… -
Re: [WIP] First environmental scene - still a newbie
Making a game involves not just art but the experience as a whole , Minecraft , Undertale , you name it . Being an indie means there is even more things you have to compromise , time is resource . Say it took 1 year to finish , by the time the game has finished , this growing industry gonna look so different than it was… -
Re: Rain ripple animated texture creation
Since it's a circular shape you can use a simple radius logic in your pixel shader. With this you can shave the sine calls for some extra performance. Using particles (ground-oriented quads), you can supply the time and the radius of each particle as uniforms and grow them in the vertex shader and output the circle shape… -
Re: WIP: Sci Fi Scene
One thing that I have been told with making tileable sets like this is that since you are projecting these high poly tiles across planes, you really shouldn't be concerned about polycounts. So as a result, there should be NO circles that have hard edges around them. I can't really tell from your shots, but it might be tool… -
3D for Games
Hello, I have just started getting into 3D and have some questions that I hope somebody will be able to answer. (they might be realy stupid but please be nice T.T) So i've noticed that in games, surfaces seem to be very jagged, for example a circle is never really circular. I understand that it would create a very dense… -
Re: [WIP] Payphone Asset
Make sure you understand that what you are seeing in the viewport/in these screenshots, is not what it will look like in game as I am assuming this is a smooth mesh preview which is achieved by hitting 3 on the keyboard in maya. A tip for creating the phone cord is to use a NURBS curve (create poly cv tool) then place a… -
Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 8
This is my material for the plastic thing. The two nodes circled in red and blue control the opacity of the drape. One controls the opacity when viewed from the front, and the other controls the opacity from the back. Now the red and blue circled nodes are connected to a Lerp node. The alpha for the lerp is Fresnel… -
Re: Maya: Pivot problem
There are very few reasons to delete your preferences file to remedy a problem within Maya. Chances are if you run into some mode or other setting that is causing problems, you just need to take the time to learn what you pressed to make the tool behave that way. You will learn more by duplicating your problems compared to… -
Re: Dota 2 - Workshop Thread
Okay. I too love PA, and in fact, my one successful weapon I made for her! I like this, the idea is neat, but I have a few criticise; Here's my ideas: I think the outer blades shouldn't be held to the inner circle by a sharpened blade. It looks really weak and flimsy, like it could break at anytime. It also would blend out…
