Re: Environment set: The Weapon Shop
I would strongly avoid those big boxy shapes - In general, any angle over 45-50 degrees does not play nicely with normal maps. You have two options with a 90 degree angle, either have a hard edge and get visible seams, or have a soft edge and have vertex normals be so smoothed that normal map is heavily distorted and shows… -
Re: mediumpoly girl
The face has some cool things going on with it. Mainly it looks very real world, where you can see the femininity, but she has some mannish or odd features that give her character. I like it. But then with the body she kinds of degrades into a generic soft character. It doesn't look well researched, meaning her arms and… -

Re: Mudbox, random questions thread.
[ QUOTE ] apply smooth modifier, smoothing group 1...or just assign them in your edit poly...... [/ QUOTE ] Dunno if you were talking to me since you replied to my post but the problem was that the OBJ file set the ambient light for the renderer to white. Any way, I had another question. I was wondering how you guys make… -
Re: enviroment: incubation unit
I would suggest playing with the light beams. I felt their color is too desaturated and white, maybe try a subtle gradient of color, warm to cool. I think they were too soft and didn't match the sky. The paint chips on the large pipes around the room bother me, they make the scene very busy and if there was more rhyme and… -
Re: highpoly player kind of thing. a websites nav
some pics added on top. i have a thing tho left. im not really familiar with this kind of rendering. what i dont know of is global illumination which is bouncing lights as far as i know and softer shadows. getting fuzzy depending on distance of object to lightsource to surface the the shadows gets cast on. so however what… -
Re: Pre rendered character sprites with changing weapons and gear workflow ?
You can either rotate the camera, or you can rotate the character. If you want the lighting to be consistent, make sure it rotates with the character. You probably want PNG as your format, since it supports soft alpha. GIF is only on/off alpha. But if you use PNG you'll want to use a PNG optimizer to reduce the file size.… -
Re: UDK - Material - Eye - UV Dilation/Expansion from Center
Ah, I see, directly dilating the UV-Coords is done through texture work, interesting and genius! Thanks Vailias, however, I'm still having a weird issue. It seems like my texture is being dilated AND twisted around the corner. I both tried a soft radial texture and your Gaussian function, but still no dice. Also, for fun,… -
Re: Carousel WIP
Hi Emi_liu ! Your carousel is already very nice to me ! The major improvement that could be done in my opinion is the intersection between the central pillar and the wooden platforms of the assets who look very sharp. Maybe a bit of fake occlusion directly baked on the base color map could resolve it Here with a soft…
