WE LUV TEKS TUTORIALS 💫

Absolute legend! Feel like I should have paid for this tutorial. A tutorial on appending weapons to characters and weapon animations/ effects would be greatly appreciated. Keep it up bro!

@TEK-

Жыл бұрын

Thank you, glad it helped! If you check out my 3D thumbnail tutorial I should have a chapter in there for appending weapons to characters. Also you can apply an animation to the weapon just like you do the character, just select the animation from that weapon folder you exported. Effects are a bit harder, so I still have to learn that myself 😂

hi can u make a tutorial on how to texture guns that has decals like spectrum or prelud of chaos in model they should be called atlas = spectrum and demonstone = prelud of chaos. thank you, this tutorial did kind of help with the character texturing

@TEK-

Thanks for the recommendation! Kirby VFX (the owner of the Valorant 3D discord server) spent over 6 months getting the Spectrum phantom to work in blender. Unfortunately it's different for every weapon, so I'm not sure if I'm able to make a tutorial. If I'm able to learn more about VFX I'll definitely make a video though, at least explaining how the VFX works. In the mean time, reading through the .json file is a good way to see how the different parts work together.

I'm trying to import the sovereign ghost, however the bones are completely fucked when I import it, any idea why? Also setting the magazine via the constraint doesn't work, the placement is still wrong :(

@TEK-

10 ай бұрын

What do you mean by the bones are fucked? And with the constraint, make sure in the object properties, both the ghost and the magazine have transforms of 0, 0, 0. If that still doesn't work just move the magazine to the right place manually and it will follow along click. I think you can click set inverse when it gets there too

I assume the gun models have that "shade smooth" effect, right? If I try to 3d print them they'll be all boxy?

Bro, for the new agent deadlock, when i tried to import the "C ability" ie. gravnet, im not understanding on how to import the little center blue animation texture inside of the bomb so it would be gr8 if u could help me. coz i recently started yt streaming and i need it for thumbnails.

@TEK-

Unfortunately the gravnet uses VFX inside which there isn't a tutorial for, so you have to remake that part of the texture from scratch. You could probably just use an emission node in place of that texture and achieve similar results.

Hello brother , I have tried adding maps using piana in blender but the only issue I have is that the sky is not appearing as it looks in game . If you could make a tutorial on that it would be great help and is there any discord server link .

@TEK-

Жыл бұрын

Yes! Go check out discord.gg/Val3D, In the #valorant-assets channel there's a list of HDRIs from the game. Some maps have a mesh in the sky blocking the HDRI's from working though, so you might have to zoom out really far and delete those.

The Start UModel option does not show up when I download and install Piana. Any tips?

Make sure you input the paks directory into Piana and select an output folder. Also it sometimes has a glitch where you need to click on the directory and hit the enter key to lock it in, unsure why

VFX is definitely something I would like to cover, but since its different for every agent, I'm not sure I can make a tutorial on it. However, you can probably figure out how to do it using my example with Gekko's tattoos. The same principles apply, just you have to use the masks and color gradients that are decompiled, and mix that with some emission
