Re: pull-over meshes issue
So you're getting a visible seam between two meshes that are identical (like a tiled wall mesh) and snapped together? Sounds like a lightmap issue - try increasing the lightmap resolution and rebuilding the map. You can adjust the lightmap resolution in the static mesh editor (double click on the mesh in the content… -
Re: [UE4] Lighting / Mood Studies
The lightmass one looks great but the lightmap compression artifacts are kinda visible on the front wall even on the lit shots. There is a checkbox in the world settings under lightmass, called "compress lightmaps". Disabling this would fix the compression errors, but it will also make your lightmap sizes (in mb) much… -
Re: UE4 - Is it possible to have two different light map channels for a static mesh? - Please help
No I don't believe this is possible right out of the box as there is only 1 choice for which UV channel the lightmap belongs to. I would assume its 1 lightmap per .uasset, so you would have to figure out a way to bring them in as two different objects, or accept the fact you have to use a higher lightmap resolution. -
Re: Modular Floor Tiles - Outlined in Shadow
I agree with someone on the other thread. It looks like your lightmaps are mipping out. Check your lightmap UV set. This I actually dont know, is there a way to increase the padding on your lightmaps generated in UDK? Also, make sure your tiles aren't completely on the edges of your UV space. nothing at 0, or 1 in each… -
WIP: Desert Straggler
Hello all, I figured I would make a thread for this, since it seems that the further I get into this project, the more confused I get. I'm good with modeling, texturing, lighting theory, etc., but when it comes to working with unreal, I'm pretty new, and I don't get why it gives me the technical problems it does. Since I… -
Re: BioWare and Mythic Combine to Form New EA 'RPG/MMO Studio Group
I'm still not sure what to think about the merger. Perhaps EA corporate likes how Ray & Greg run things... definitely can't deny our track record, and our performance at E3 this year was astounding. Maybe it means Warhammer is going to get some lightsabers? :P -
Re: bsp export
hmmmm, that doesn't sound as if they got those 'lightmaps' from the .X format itself as it's not capable of storing that sort of data (as far as I know). It sounds like what they've done is collect all their assets together into a quake 3 map and then compiled the results, from which they've export the lightmaps out to… -
Re: Shadow on Foliage Paint are Way too Dark
Simplex noise is also very expensive in your material, try changing that noise node to use "fast gradient" instead of simplex. About the lightmap: Set the directional light to be stationary, and set the foliage to be movable. Then All static elements of the scene will use baked lighting (lightmaps) and movable things will… -
Re: Incorrect lighting on multiple small objects
Please check out how lightmaps works in unreal, and what are the requirements for it. The console says you have more than 50% overlapping uvs on the lightmap uv channel. The lightmap uv channel needs to be uniquely laid out, so no overlappings are allowed (because otherwise the lighting information would bake on top of… -
Re: [RELEASE] Shader Forge - A node-based shader editor for Unity
Wow nice, love the changes Im just struggling with lightmaps, Im not sure what to do exactly to use custom lightmaps in my shader like I would with the legacy ones Unity dosnt seem to process lightmaps well, so I would bake them offline and put them into unity, but where to put them in ?
