HOT NEWS!

This is the first 4.5 beta update with PBR support. Not all is done and some elements are still missing, but it is at least workable.

Important for this first 4.5beta release:

1. GL version is NOT working! Andrew will do GL shaders after all. Use DirectX version first only! -> 3d-coat(DX)
2. Keep backups of your scenes, presets and materials. Better - create a backup of the folder MyDocs/3D-CoatV4

Changes for 20.12.2014 - 4.5.BETA1

• PBR & Smart PBR materials introduced.
• A lot of bugfixes.

Teil 7 - Erstellung eines 3D-Modells für Computerspiele - Thema: "Fantasy-Waffe"

Etwas verspätet die Meldung in meinem Blog, aber es geht weiter. Vielleicht hat es ja der Ein oder Andere verpasst, deshalb:

Die siebte Episode in Deutsch vervollständigt den Retopologie-Teil. Die restlichen Elemente des Modells werden hier erstellt. Im achten Teil wird es dann mit der Erstellung der UV-Koordinaten und dem Baking-Prozess weiter gehen, um dann die Normalmaps aus dem High-Poly-Modell zu übertragen.

Viel Spaß
Chris
