Homework Submission – Week 3 – Mountain ‘O’

Hey @theluthier, @adrian2301  All of my Master files have been uploaded. Hope I did it all correctly:

Scenes > Models > MASTER_nature_mountain-B_mattdunn.blend

Textures > Nature > BG > MASTER_nature_mountain-B_mattdunn_CAVITY.png

Textures > Nature > BG > MASTER_nature_mountain-B_mattdunn_COLOR.png

Textures > Nature > BG > MASTER_nature_mountain-B_mattdunn_NORMAL.png

You bet. I will take care of all of that tomorrow.

Had trouble baking. Posted about it in the group thread. Here is where my mountain is at. I still need to get in and do some hand painted details and textures.

@theluthier You don’t have to worry about giving me in-depth comments unless I am wildly off-base.  To be honest I was more curious about the collaborative nature of the project and I hope you do a recap of your lessons learned when the project completes. Do you plan on surveying contributors and team leads about the experience?

[Matt Dunn]

Hi Everyone,

Is anyone else getting bad bakes from Blender? Luckily I have an old copy of Substance Painter that has given me better results. I have tried messing with the Extrusion and Max Ray Distance in Blender’s bake settings and it doesn’t really help. I have not watched Kent’s latest stream, maybe the answer is there.

Here is the mountain with the Painter maps applied and some colour. Still need to add hand painted details/more texture.

I don’t have time for a lot of the social aspects of the project. I hope everyone is well and having fun.

Here is where I am at with the mountain sculpt.

Anyone know what our target polygon count will be when we retopologize?

[Matt Dunn]

I’m curious about rendering the background to planes or maybe a cylinder in case we want to really move the camera around. Could we render a few images  with particular lighting  and then use the material settings to alter the background for any time of day? Does rendering an Environment Texture of the background make sense for this use case?

[Matt Dunn]

Thanks @adrian2301. I will try and check out the team thread tonight.

Homework Submission – Week 1 – Mountain ‘O’

Here is my mountain @theluthier. I stuck with the lessons learned in the rock sculpting course.

Let me know what you think.

Looks great!

[Matt Dunn]

Nice! I’m really looking forward to the direction everyone takes for the foliage.
