Re: Light Leak
Are you baking you lighting? How do your lightmap UVs look? Do you have enough padding between your lightmap UV shells? You need at least 4 pixels between each shell to avoid lightmap bleeding. Though I've heard that lightmaps are being mip mapped in the newer versions of UDK so it might happen even with a 4 pixel pad. See… -
Re: Liquid in a tube material guide or help
A couple of upfront things first: 1: Which engine are you using? UDK or UE4? 2: How close will the viewer get to this asset? Does this need to be really high fidelity for up close viewing, or is it something that is more set dressing and background? 3: will the fluid ever need to "fill up" the tube or will it always be… -
Re: xNormal Workflow question
Hey EarthQuake, yeah this is a floor grate. It started out as a prop piece for a scene I am going to make but I plan on importing it into UDK or Unity. It has potential to be a game asset down the road if I can get it done right this time. I need to figure out how to do alpha mapping. My main concern is that if I alpha map… -
Re: N.O.A
here is the ZBrush screen cap of the rescue pod. This Rescue Pod is actually designed by a Chinese in preparation for the 2012 Mayan end-of-the-world predictions. NOA is along this theme as well. there are many similar pods designed in real life for tsunami but i like this one because of the big text over its yellow… -

But thanks!! ahaha nathdevlin - Thank you so much for the explanation! I see how you mean it depends. For this project I won't be making anything else so it… -
Re: House Of the three Bears (environment)
I am not familiar with gamebyro so I can't give you much help there. I was going to suggest using UDK but seeing as there are others involved I am guessing you have already all decided on gamebyro. Overall the lighting is very dark in the scene and it appears that you have some texture stretching with the brick texture… -
Re: normal vs displacement
I honestly suggest reading up the PC wiki, the way you worded the questions makes me feel like you haven't read up on the basics of which map does what, but suffice to say, almost all of them in games only use Normal more times then not. You can usually generate Normal maps for your displacement map, but that's a whole… -
Re: combine meshes to continuous mesh
I have a scan from a book that shows a roof that is similar to what I want to achieve. You can see how some of the tiles are offset a little bit. I want to push that a little farther as I want the building in my scene to be more rundown. You can also see the grout between the tiles. There are inverted tiles beneath that,… -
Re: Shader - UV-less Anistropic shader?
@Far: No idea which Ward you mean, sorry. I tried Aniso-Ward, but it still needs UV's in my case, based upon this code here: http://content.gpwiki.org/index.php/D3DBook:%28Lighting%29_Ward Here is an example in node format what the shader might look like, and the UV edge issue that can pop up ( in UDK for example:… -
Re: Jedi Academy Asset
You can use more uv channels than one. So you can use an overlapped one for things like diffuse, normal, etc, and a second with uniquely placed uv shells for an ao for example. Or this would be good for a "decal" or "texts" texture if it would be needed. Also, in UDK, the second uv channel is must needed because of the…
