Re: Modular assets or texture blending.
Hi all. I was googling when it is better to use tileable texture blending and when it is better to create the textures with photoshop or Substance Painter for models for film and video games, I came across this forum topic, I couldn't resist the temptation to ask since I can't find anything that convinces me on Google.… -
Re: Bioware Challenge Mass Effect WIP UDK
It doesn't look very Mass Effect, thats the first thing that hit me. It looks very generic Sci Fi, which isn't an issue, but it was something the third game had an issue with. They seemed to move away from the nice designs they had there, and moved more into looking like everything else. Now, that aside, this asset is… -
Re: [SOLVED] How does one fake lighting hair strands on a surface?
What you're asking for is a specular map. First make one good Alpha map for masking the hair. Then figure out your materials as solid colors and mask them off with the same alpha. Here's a few tips for you: Straighten your UV shells so they're mostly going along one axis. The way you have them at a 45° angle creates choppy… -
Re: Subtance works
I really like your workflow of combining base materials with masks and getting the finished textured mesh. If I may ask, how do you make those greyscale masks? Cheers! -
Re: Sketchbook: stray
I've been feeling discouraged from making stuff and posting, but I'm trying to make an effort again. The main issue with all my models is inability to adequately pose them: they have a tendency to break in a way that I can't quite fix. The legs become too short for sitting poses, the arm twists break silhouettes, the… -
Zbrush Extract spacing

But I would like to have an effect of spacing between two objects, I know I can use gizmo to kind a fix it but is there any other option than gizmo?… -
SuperPNG broken these days, any alternatives?
I think we are back to square one with photohop and PNGs alpha channels being oil and water. It's just mangling the RGB channels and adding white again. I can get it to work correctly if I make the RGB 1 solid color. As soon as I add in a load of color, the exported PNGs RGBs are fubar. these were all exported with… -
Re: How do I unify my color temperature in non-analogous scenes?
No, I forgot to change the brightness. I didn't even know you could do that in color.adobe.com, but it's possible. Changing brightness (so you have a cool dark end and a warm bright end), you can get this: But to get back on what you were talking about, when you ask "how to unify the temperature (or the physical location… -
Re: How much time does it take for you?
Still other questions need to be answered first. 1. What time period was this made? Medieval times? WW2, Modern Day, Future? 2. What is it made out of? Wood, Concrete, Metal... 3. Do you go inside? 4. How close do you get to it? 5. How damaged is the structure? 6. Is it abandoned or upkept All important questions to be… -
Re: [Substance painter] Using ambient occlusion for dirt
You could also use your ambient occlusion ask a mask in it self, though you may want to invert it first, if you'd like to paint the dirt manually. Cavity also works well for this, or even a hand painted mask period using alphas.
