Weekly Blog 12 : Texture (continue)

 This week, I have done texturing for all 9 materials, but there's still an issue on texture resolution. So, I may fix some UV shells next week. Anyway, I did not plan that the camera would zoom to these low-resolution textures. At this time, if I want, I am ready to make a scene and render in Unreal Engine. 

My texturing finished earlier than I planned, so I will have extra 2 weeks (3 weeks including thanksgiving break) and I am planning to create a terrain object and bushes by using the next 2 weeks. I will use Gaea for a terrain object, but I have no plan to create nice bushes, I'll find a good way or use MegaScan.





These images are not showing all textured objects, but these are almost all of the objects I worked on. 

For a signboard, I planned to use normal maps and prepared texts, but I noticed that I can mask material with a font brush and edit height and color later. So I chose that option.

In this project, I chose to use a height map to express some patterns, such as the side of the tables and panel of  the Jukebox. Most of them worked nicely but some of them did not work correctly. The difference was according to a texture resolution. I created these objects with 9 (8 major and 1 glass) materials and It limited the resolution. Next time, I will unify the material of objects by their size. For material 7, a coffee maker, the entrance wall, and a wall clock were attached on the same material and caused the gap of texture resolution. This problem should not happen in future.


(Beans look little bit big)

To create a coffee bean stamp, I used an Arnold Rendering with Normal view. 

For the next 3 weeks, as I mentioned above, I will create a terrain object and bushes. In addition, I am planning to create some flyers and picture decals which will be on the wall inside of Unreal Engine. It might be good to use photos which I took.

Unreal Engine 5.5 was released and the volumetric cloud and sky became more realistic. So I changed my plan to use HDRI sky from PolyHaven to use the volume system inside of Unreal Engine.

Week5 Sprint

For this week, I was working on this texture There are two models for the ramp This is a scrolling script float offsetX, offsetY, realtime; new Vector2 origin; public float speed = 1; // make it -0.1 in Unity public double rooptime = 3.9; void Start() { offsetX = this.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTextureOffset.x; offsetY = this.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTextureOffset.y; origin = new Vector2(offsetX, offsetY); } void Update() { realtime += Time.deltaTime; offsetY = realtime * speed; this.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTextureOffset = new Vector2(offsetX, offsetY); if(realtime > rooptime) { realtime = 0; } } I made transparent area and place UV of ramp top, and this is albedo texture map. UV of Ramp Top moves from top to bottom

Sprint 2 CAGD 495

  I was working on creating SE. I used SWave, old and free software which was created by Japanese, so it's displaying Japanese texts on each tab. I created sound with changing the shape of wave, especially changing the shape of each cycle, pitch shift, and volume. There are several track and I can mix them up to one sound effect. After that, I edited it in Wondershare Filmora. I removed noise, edited with quick equalizer tool, and added filter,  I made second dig sound with recording real sound and editing it. Jumping sound Digging sound Collecting sound Select menu I was also working on the placing props in Unity scene and general mapping of collective items This placement is just temporal for the prototype, so I'll fix them later. I focused on the LOD when I placed them.  There is no low poly model (according to a producer, she does not plan to make it), so I edited vanishing distance of objects.

Sprint 5 CAGD 495

 For this sprint, I created 2 short loop sounds and 1 long loop sound. I took 1 week for creating a below audio. General process is same as a previous work of Whoosh, but I combined 2 audio sources, twinkle and wind sound. Icy spell sound In other week, I made Shadow spell sound and river stream sound Shadow spell sound River stream sound I left same explanation on my card, but I'll leave it here too. I was thinking that the audio source will be stick on the particle object and loopable because the audio will be back to the beginning when player fires the spell in short span. If the other sound is triggered during a first sound is playing, a sound will be unnatural. To avoid this, I thought an audio source will be attached in the particle prefab and is not involved in the other spell. The audio sounds differently if I created a completed whole sound track of the spell. If loopable, sound volume will decrease by spatial sound and sounds natural. I was also working on the creating o...
