Re: Manually editing object normals while lacking the tools?
I've been working on an addon for this that's linked close to the end of the thread for the Recalc Vertex Normals addon linked above (definitely one of my favorite Blender tools). It can export custom normals from this tool (in fbx format) or my own. I have a few custom generation methods set up in my editor, mostly for… -
Re: How do I get reflections in Unreal 4?
One more question: How do I set up a background for a portfolio render? As soon as I place anything in the background, my lighting changes. In UDK, I could place a sphere in the back with a flat emissive color after baking the lighting. Now when I place it, the lighting becomes overpowering? If the sphere is gray, I get… -
Re: Rendering my 3D Prop
You can use literally anything you want. Unity, UE4, UDK, Marmoset, 3DS Max/Maya viewport, substance/quixel viewport... it makes no difference. Go through 10 random threads on the 3D showcase forum, odds are you're going to find a huge variety of screencaps from the viewport, turntable gifs, offline renders, youtube… -
Re: The Patriot - Character Model
So I downloaded the trial for Marmoset Toolbag and I gotta say, I'm very impressed! Gotta have to buy it as soon as possible! I messed around with it for the first time, so these screenshots are faaaaar from the final result. Overload of post-process, no backface culling (even if it's on, oddly), not enough hair, etc).… -
Re: If Not Game Art, Then What?
Oh yeah, Cryrid just made me think of a few more ideas. Courtroom simulations. I've been contacted by law firms in the past to just model some cars, a train and setup an auto accident re-enactment. Might be cool to put on in a game engine, complete with physics. Arch Viz. I see a lot of arch viz companies using the… -
Re: Urgent UI workflow help needed for work
Oh sorry I forgot to clarify. The UI will be done in 3D so I am making my stuff in max so there isn't an image in 2D, just some textures projected on planes as well as full 3D buttons. The issue I have is that I cant preview the whole thing as I would in UDK because we have no real time view port. The coder is an industry… -
Re: SUBSTANCE DESIGNER 2.1
The main advantage is that you don't store all these utility maps in video memory, you only store the final output. The other aspect is that you can do stuff that can't be done with shaders or will at least require a shader artist that can actually *write* complex shaders unless you are using a visual shader editor like in… -
Re: [Chivalry] - Mason Man-At-Arms - Spudnik& Pior Set
Looking great man :) The accuracy is impressive, and the very subtle surfacing is fantastic. Very well done. Looking at the comments made on other Polycount entries in the Chivalry workshop, I now think that the handle/pole of the mace will need to be much thinner tho... It will be quite apparent when compared to the other… -
Re: Texture as texture coordinates?
Shuriken, from memory, alters colours and what not by vertex, and if you're doing additional vertex stuff it would obviously be affected by that. Which means any further changes to vertex colour and position will still work, but the warping will only affect what is in the sampler that uses those UVs (per-pixel). In… -
Re: Trying to texture like Naughty Dog (Critique is Welcome Here])
Great start! Where will this texture end up? PBR rendered in Marmoset 2, UDK or viewport? Either way you need to take away all of your shadows. I know that Brad actually renders out shadows in his diffuses but that's something the shader should take care of. Something else that caught my eye is your lowres moss details.…
