stone hallway

so, back to unreal. wanted to figure why the last "hall romper (animation)" render took so long once i raised the quality setting, so made a way more simplistic hallway, with only one material applied to it. now i know how to set it up but also know that putting a lot of reflecting surfaces on to...

remove all pins from the scene, and simulate to let the garment settle in place.

haha, couldnt decide which ones to upload, so made it easy on myself and just uploaded everything. problem solved!!!

pushing things to far

unreal broke my vram!!! my poor old gpu couldnt really handle the first settings i tried and it broke the whole calculation.

tried to re-render the hallway scene yesterday night. since i figured out how to fix the light bleeding and so i thought i give it a try to see what it would look lik...

me vs epic

haha, ok still need to learn a lot about setting up pbr materials. theirs looks so complicated. i never worked with prb materials since vray is using the glossiness system.

epic/unreal skin shaders

so, playing with unreal for a couple of weeks now, i figured it is time to see how the pros are doing things, so i downloaded the digital human from unreal and used their shader setup and applied them to saphy to see what would happen. all rendered in real time and this is the result

still a problem/ solved

in the last animation, if you look at the hair it has some weird effects on it. i get what is happening now, but no idea how to solve it yet. if i put saphy out of focus on the camera, the translucent/masked materials dont get any dof/ blurriness calculated on them. so hair, lashes and eye reflec...

better shaders and lightmass calculation

i understand why saph her legs where so bright in the previous animation as well, and thats all fixed now. its painful slow processes you have to go through but in the end its well worth it all

fixed light bleeding

last animation i had a lot of trouble with light bleeding and artifacts. so i found the solution on how to fix it all. now we got a nice clean result without any weird effects on it.

hall romper (animation)

garment used: denim romper (g8f)

so, now everything together. boob and hair physics, dynamic clothing, fixed animation, unreal "real time" rendering.

not really sure why her legs are so bright. i dont think...

aniMate2

fbx exports were pissing me off cause of the weird results it gives on bending on limbs and well, everything that rotates. so i got aniMate2 for daz which lets you export a vertex cloud which means you get what you see right out of daz. now daz has this nice system were it holds everything in the...

floor contact

if you wanna have a believable animation you will have to have your character's feet hit the ground properly. if its off the animation will suck. see all vids below this one!

when using motion capture there is always things you need to fix, like feet and head to remove weird wiggles and noi...

dress speed test

now its all about speed, especially testing if marvelous designer can keep up with really fast animation movements. i was expecting some exploding to happen on the dress but marvelous designer is keeping up amazingly well

rotation problem unreal

ok, so fixed the problem with the clothing from marvelous designer. there is no delays, no poke throughs, fits perfectly and animates really great. so i figured, lets try a spinning animation with a dress, right?! well, you know how things are, if you fix one thing there is always an other thing ...
