    So I'm following along using a custom Daz3D character I created. The issue there is that some of these maps you mention are not included. Translucency and Cavity, to be exact, so I swapped in Subsurface Scattering and Bump, respectively. Am I doing it wrong? The results look a lot better than when I started, but not where I would like them to be. Also, how would I darken the skin tone back down? The previous setup I used involved a Hue/Saturation between the Diffuse and Base Color Input, but it doesn't work now. I even tried inserting a Gamma node, but not sure if that's correct either. Not sure if the SS map is impacting this or not. Help?

    Important question that would help other beginners like myself: Q: What is the main use of xnormals? After you have wrapped the texture map around the face model at 3:31 seconds, couldn't we just continue arranging the uv maps till it wrapped perfectly around the head? I dont understand why we need to use xnormals after when it gives the same texture look at 5:55 seconds ? What happens if we dont use xnormals? Thank you for taking the time to answer this

    I think that baking textures can be faster to render and maybe after baking them we can add more detail (I'm not sure but maybe). And Xnormals is faster than blender

    in production, when you have dozens of models with same UV`s, but with different shape of one, it`s so useful to have already pre-done "right" textures for all heads that you have. In that way you don't need to rearrange UV`s of each head you are going to texture. Hope it helped :)

  • @andreasschultze6644

    @andreasschultze6644

    Жыл бұрын

    No. Adding or even overlaying is wrong and just a lazy method. There are nodesetups that produce real normal map mixing behaviour.

  • @PixelicaCG

    @PixelicaCG

    Жыл бұрын

    Add just adds it on top of the other one and washes out the image but overlay actually mixes it (as long as it's on non color) and add the details to the the first normal map, you can test it for yourself on a flat plane to see the difference, there are other more legit way to do the mixing but too many nodes just makes the process complicated for people and i wanted to make the shader as simple as possible.
