Stanley No. 43 Handplane (From the Handplane Baker contest)
This is my finalized entry for the Handplane Baker contest. I unfortunately didn't make the deadline for it, but I wasn't gonna let that stop me from finishing it anyway. http://polycount.com/discussion/180677/stanley-no-43 I used this old Stanley No. 43 as my reference. For clarity, the following images were not made… -
Re: Issue baking in modo, file inside
Do not use multiple materials for low-poly. Make a single material for low, you can keep multiple materials for your hi-poly, so you can bake material id map. You can bake stuff in modo without baking wizard. Just add a new image in your low-poly material and right click the image and select bake from object to texture.… -
Re: Just Swords - SpeedMetalSF
It's two different approaches. You could sculpt on the smoothed version of a subdivision modeling mesh, but that's then locked at the highest subdivision you ended up using, and, like you noticed, that's quite high indeed in order to be able to sculpt freely and not run into problems (although you should still work from… -
3D Max baking questions
I am trying to get textures baked and put into Anark. I'm using the Render To Texture options, and in max, the baked texture looks great. When Render To Texture bakes an object, it applies an Automatic Flatten UVs to the object. In Anark, it uses the original UV map settings, which applies the baked textures incorrectly.… -
Re: Retopology & baking - teeth/horns/spinities
Unless you're going to have really specific color grading set up in your texturing process (like Darksiders) I would build 1 or 2 horn variations, and 2 teeth variations based on your model and then bake those out and place them in their correct spots after baking. If you don't sweat the small stuff, you'll save tons of UV… -

I've also tried making… -

Re: Baking AO using MR
Vary your bricks greatly. You often have to exaggerate things to get them to bake well. You can count on small details being lost or barely making an impact. I think he has some other tutorials about this too, one explains why you shouldn't go crazy and sub-divide like mad and waste your time painting sub-details. Always… -
Re: Advice when baking thin strips
Hey thanks for suggestion. And the thread about baking. I'll be sure to go through that. :D When you say 'make the highlighted edge the seam', do you mean that centre dark green line? If so, I take it's essentially a case of cutting the strip in half...? And re-enforcing the hard edges with support loops? -
[Blender/Substance Designer] Some advice regarding high/low poly baking needed.
