UE4 Light maps
I've seen a lot of good tutorials on light maps, one of my favorites is one by the world of level design that goes pretty deep on light maps in the the Unreal engine. My question is how much space between UV's do you really need in your light maps to make them look good? In the tutorials I've seen it shows quite a lengthy… -
Re: I need help with Light's (effects)
I might not be the most qualified to answer but here is a tip : To avoid this kind of issue you can try working more loosely. Since this image is more of an illustration you can approch it the 'painterly' way : just throw a few *very* loose lights first to get an idea of what you are doing, then work on light/shades to get… -
Shader FX One light support? (And other whines)
Im trying out Shader FX mostl, to just see the painting of diffuse and spec with normal maps from Photoshop. The default dx or phong render many times "forgets" to update the textures. That and the DX shader of standard material 90% of the time renders the object as unspecular phong, no matter my settings (this is Max 9).… -
Re: Unreal/General - Scattering Shader - Eye and Light - Correct retention of Energy
All caluclation, comparisons must be done in the same 'space'. I.e. camera space is the view of your rendered world from the camera perspective, light space is the view from a single light source etc. It is better to use a single space and transform all other data from their original space to this common space. Most modern… -

Re: Light seams on my meshes
So, I repacked the UVs of my second tree, but it just moved the light problem.... could my problem be my light setup? I have a dominant directional light(basically the sun) and I have 8 other directional lights, wich basically give me the soft shadow color (to simulate light emitted by the rest of the sky). I'll experiment… -
Re: Alphas with normal maps and lighting
hey man, Unreal supports statically lit translucency only, not with dynamic lights (such as material editors viewport) If you set the transparency setting to translucent and keep the lighting model set to phong it should work. It wont appear correctly in the material editor preview because there is no baked static…
