Re: Watts art material ?
I'm also thinking torchons/blending tortillons with your standard 8H - 8B pencil drawing set. Could also be charcoal, but it definately looks like blending and shading was done with a torchon/blending tortillons. Sometimes they get so filled with graphite and charcoal you can just shade with them without having to lay down… -
Re: Normal Mapping Question for the vets
combine them in photoshop? just paste the map you made in crazybump/ndo as a new layer above your baked normals, set blending mode to overlay, then right click on the layer, select "blending options" and under "advanced blending" just untick the blue channel. play with the layer opacity to make it more or less bumpy. -
Re: Gems rendering
Awesome!! One thing I noticed recently, Three.js doesn’t render alphaMode:Blend behind Transmission, which makes it more difficult to handle surfaces with multiple transparent parts. For example: Three.js (left) does not render alpha blend behind tranmission, but Babylon.js does. Context, and more… -
Re: How would you texture out this large enviroment piece?
Straighten out the UV islands, and use tileable textures. Use a vertex blending shader to blend together many different tileable textures so you get more variation. You may have to add a bit of geometry to have it blend the way you want but 16k textures is crazy. -
Re: MAYA: use vertex colors as blendshape weights?
hmm. basically what i am doing is writing realtime shaders that use vertex colors to blend different normal maps, but i wanted to also associate blend shapes with the different normal maps. this way i can interactively blend several different forms, to make many variations. -
Re: AT-ST W.I.P
Well, if your main concern REALLY is to make a portfolio peice, your focus should be making it look good in the format its going to be viewed, and thats at a relatively low resolution in still images. Since that is the case, I would really like to see just simple screenshot of your highpoly, at about the correct size and… -
Re: The Bi-Weekly Substance Challenge (2018 Challenges)
@capone I would do this with layers and histogram ranges, like this. The blends are set to copy, with a histogram scan to mask. It's not perfect, but it kind of works. Here's the blended result And the result in IRay It's not perfect, but it's better than what the blend node can give you natively. There are better ways to… -
Re: Mesh Multiple Material IDs
From what I make out, he's trying to blend together between material id's. If you just want to blend between two textures, then look into vertex colour blending. You'll need a shader that supports this in Unity, but you could preview it in Max, that's what I assume your using, from using the term "Material ID's." -
Re: Redwood Forest UE4
Thanks! Yes, it is a uniquely sculpted base thats then blended with a tiling texture using vertex color that I paint where I want the tiling texture to blend in. I do this step inside Maya so its already done when I import it in-engine. I blend all the different texture maps with the vertex color :) Hope that helps! -
Re: Tiling Textures, Huge Environements.
You can also use a blend material, with vertex paint in the blend mask slot. Then use the vertex paint modifier to paint the mask and blend the two materials. Its a really easy way to do paths. It's not very export/game friendly unless your exporter understands the vertex color channel and knows what to do with it.…
