BC4-1810 Homework, Williamatics

[William Miller]

I plan to fully participate in this class.  I don’t have any suitable models, unfortunately, so I’ll have to use the ones provided.

Hey, haven’t seen you around for a while.  Looking forward to what you can do.

[William Miller]

That’s because I was on vacation.  I sadly couldn’t do the first week.  At least I didn’t miss something really major.

@williamatics Better late than never.  Otherwise you’re forfeiting up to 50 experience points, if you care about that.  Plus, you could get some critiques to help you on your next assignment.

[Kent Trammell]

Looking forward to seeing what you do in Weeks 2-4 @williamatics!

HOMEWORK FOR WEEK 2 (Part 1):

I tried to match the lighting of this photograph, using one of these Blendswap models.

Goal:

Match:

@williamatics That’s looking great William, nicely done 🙂👍🏻

[William Miller]

I’m getting this weird bug with EEVEE.  All objects have the same material, but some look different than others.  The texture spaces have all been corrected.  How can I fix this?

[William Miller]

Also, none of the default HDRIs look good because I want my tank to be black and reflective, but I can’t seem to get enough reflections from the world.

@williamatics I happened with my shading as well. I noticed that if You will unwrap everything and scale UV islands “upside down” if You know what i mean it solves that.

[William Miller]

@dragonice69 It didn’t work.

@williamatics I hate to say this, but you may have to start from scratch with the materials.  When I imported my truck into 2.8, the interior materials for the fabric and leathery-vinyl were just…wrong, all wrong.  And I couldn’t tweak them to make them right; I ended up having to build new materials for them.  Most Cycles materials seem to import into Eevee just fine but a few don’t work at all.

@williamatics @jakeblended I’m afraid Jake is right, experienced this too. I also noticed that the scales of textures is messed up. Where I used a scale of 10 in Cycles, I had to bump it up to something ridiculous like 100-300 to get the same kind of effect in Eevee, so that might be an issue too.. Also some nodes and values don’t work (yet) in Eevee, like the AO node and the Pointiness value of the Geometry node.

[William Miller]

@jakeblended I wasn’t moving them to EEVEE from Cycles, I was starting from scratch.

[Grady Pruitt]

when things aren’t looking the same when they should, I always check object scale and normals. Most of the time, one of those is the culprit.
