[PAID][REMOTE] U.S. Game Artist / 2.5D Visual Asset Artist
Role Overview We are looking for a talented U.S.-based game artist to help create visual assets for an independent strategy game project. This is a fully remote contract role for an artist who is comfortable working in a fast-moving startup-style environment and can produce polished, game-ready assets. The project uses a… -
Is there any way to make a nice 3d plants based on alpha channel?
Hello, Is there any way to make a nice 3d plants based on alpha channel? At the moment I'm making some islands... with a lot of plants. The pain is that the player has a free cam and can aim the island from any direction. So I can't use simple planes with alpha channel. Of course I can't make it from polygons because of… -
Xnormal baking ALL map types as i do diffuse?
Hello I had a scan, few milion polygons, i "converted" this (retopo etc.) into a lower poly version of 10 000 polygon and Diffuse, Displacement (32 bit EXR) and Normals maps (the "standard one" - purple-ish :-) ). I deleted the original scan. Now i "discovered" that i would like to have also even lower poly version of this… -
Baking overlapping transparent surfaces in 3DS Max
Hello! I'm trying to make a game environment run better (mostly not my stuff) and I'm trying to bake a bunch of quite similar bush models to far simpler models. Basically, the artist who made them made 4 quite high poly spheres, applied noise and gave each one a different tiling leaf texture (with all different… -
Re: How can I bake high poly detail onto a smooth surface and maintain the smoothness?
There are several ways to approach this but a good starting point would be to identify the minimum number of unique UVs needed for all the road wheels. As an example: the front faces of the outer road wheels could all have unique UVs to support painting unique camouflage patterns but the inner road wheels, back sides and… -
Re: Forest Lake Cabin Environment WIP
Ok I've been playing around with a rock idea. This was partly to get an idea of what I wanted the rocks to look like, and partly to figure out a good way of doing them. I'm considering trying a different approach where rather than just sculpt one big 'block' in ZBrush, I might make several (10 or so) smaller rocks and jam… -
[Baking/Projection Modifier] - Cage Intersecting with a Contiguous Mesh around a 'Pole'
Hi Polycount, I've built a CCTV camera model based off of some Concept art, and to save polygons I've made the main casing of the camera one large, contiguous mesh - allowing for the bake to put all of the split-line details back in. Low Poly contiguous mesh: High Poly mesh: The issue is that because these parts of the… -
Issues when mirroring after baking half-mesh
Hey there, I have recently been trying to go extreme with optimizing UV space and have seen videos on people deleting a mesh down the middle, UV-unwrapping it, baking it and then mirroring the mesh later. Basically saving on UV space as the other half would be offset outside the 0-1 space. However when I attempt this I get… -
Adding details on models in Zbrush, then bake a normal map?
So I have a weapon that I want to add some 3d decals/details on. So far I have been able to sculpt new details and bake without problem, but adding new 3d objects on top of the model doesn't seem to work. I have also sometimes added a few lowpoly models in 3dmax and then attaching those to the model for extra detail, but… -
Baking Curvature from edited Normal Map
I am practicing with Substance Painter texturing this model download from Substance Share: https://share.allegorithmic.com/libraries/2087 When I bake a Normal Map and a Curvature Map from the high poly at 2k or 4k pixels of resolution, the results are correct. Both maps are smooth and without artifacts. If I add some…
