Re: UDK texture issue
What's the main problem? Do you mean the seams you are getting, where the arms or legs are showing or the lack of normal map detail? UDK tends to need a bit stronger normal maps to make them stand out. And a specular map does help. You can also try adding a heightmap and using a bump offset node to make some materials… -
Re: Maya to Zbrush problem
Hi, I have encountered this problem before. It is a pretty easy fix. Open Maya and turn on the display face normals. Display>Polygons>Face Normals. This will show you the direction the faces are pointing and you will see that the faces not showing up in ZBrush have their faces pointing toward the inside of your model and… -
Re: Diablo III Gem Mine (next gen)
I gotta say that's not looking next gen at all so far. If you have normal maps they're not showing much in those shots in fact it looks completely unlit. I can't really make constructive criticism since I can't tell what the problem is (no normal maps? No spec? No lighting? too many lights?). All I'll say is the way it is… -
Re: Questions about re-creating textures in HD
Hi again, I need to correct these two things where I dropped the ball: - I said "modern texturing workflows using photographic sources", but that's actually the legacy workflow. The modern one is using Substance Painter to create procedural textures (pretty much infinite resolution, if you're not using any raster maps in… -
Re: What type of bake is this?
One thing important to say is that the game where i make my models don't support bake maps like normal maps, etc, so when you simple AO bake give the most info of your model is better for the texturers who use normally the ambient oclussion bake in multiply mode in their photoshop to take the shadows of the model for… -
Mining compressor [Max] review
Hi! First piece of artwork uploaded on Polycount, looking for some critiques and comments. I've been working on this scene for a little while in my free time during the past few months I started it as high res modelling exercise and one thing led to another, decided to push it further. It's been done in MAX, textured in… -
Smoothing Errors
Hi! I'm just testing around with texture baking and got those ugly smoothing errors. I've already tried some other methods, different UVs and smoothing groups, but it always ends with messy UV seams or ugly smoothing errors. I've also already used the forum search, but I couldn't find a good solution. I don't know what I… -

Re: TF2 Lunch Box Sentry
This is really sweet! Love the ketchup and mustard bottles, My only thing that you could check out would be that your normal map is wasteful in a sense that only the one piece is using this. I'm only saying this as Baddcog had commented on my post saying that I had done the same thing. Here is what he told me: Honestly if… -
Re: Workflow question from a beginner.
If you want to make your normal map in zbrush, your lowres needs UVs. If it has UVs, the workflow is as follows: - subdivide your lowres (to level 2) lower your highres to subdivision level 2 and project it. - subdivide again (to level 3) set your highres to subdivision level 3 and project again. - repeat this process till…
