#texture

4 posts4 participants0 posts today

Was talking to a friend when I complained that creeping jenny was taking over parts of my yard. He didn't know what it was so he asked for a picture. I didn't realize how much of a carpet it had made in a patch behind a tree.

It makes for a beautiful #texture! Sadly today isn't Tuesday.

This house at home in Ireland likely abandoned during "The Great Famine". (1845-1852). During that time roughly 1 million people died and 2 million emigrated. In the first nine months of 1847 - 822,681 gallons of butter were exported to England.

Protip:
When doing shading on a #texture for #3Dmodeling, especially for #VR #Avatars or other characters in #GameDev, put it on a separate layer and export it as an Occlusion Map. Modern engines can make this look really good, especially in worlds that were designed with strong ambient #lighting. It also makes it easier to edit the colors because you don't have to worry about the shading on them.

Also, use more than one material. It is not 2006. Not only should Clothing and Flesh NEVER share materials, but eyes, insides of mouths, horns, and unfurred areas on characters with fur, benefit greatly from having their own material with its own reflectivity. It especially helps in modern #VirtualWorlds like #Resonite and #Overte, where this makes Avarars FAR more customizable.
