I have a weird issue: If I set my image node to "non-color" with a starting value of 50% gray like you do here, the 50% gray of the texture displays as ~75% gray on the image editor (like in your vid at 4:00 ). Then, if I use a 50% gray brush, if I paint on the image editor it behaves as expected (the color is unchanged / it "erases" the bump map), but then if I instead paint on the 3d model itself, it paints a value that results in a negative bump on the mesh (which shows up on the image editor as 50% gray). So the brush paints a different color based on whether it's in image editor or 3d view. Is there a way to stop this? If I just use the image in normal linear color mode, it seems to work fine.

@ssaohbao4420 Жыл бұрын

Thank you very much! But is there any way to "snap" this painting to the grid? For example - if I want to draw two bump points directly at the center of the face... or I just need to use a Photoshop for this? I modelling a window for game asset, and I want to draw screws at some faces. I want to draw them perfectly.

Does the density of vertices on planes matter after applying such normal maps? Will the face with 4 vertices, after applying the thus created normal map, look as if it was made of more density?

@RyanKingArt Жыл бұрын

No, its a texture, so its different then the objects topology. The topology can be very low, even just a single plane, but the bump texture makes it look like its more detailed.

@4969588 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the tutorials ❤️ ... but what is the difference between this method in texture paint and sculpting?!!!

@RyanKingArt Жыл бұрын

Sculpting is where you actually change the shape and geometry of the object, where as this is just a fake bump. normal maps and bump maps make the object appear bumpy, while keeping the objects topology flat. So its basically fake bump, but it works really well, especially for video games where the models need to be low poly.

Newbie question... you said you CAN change it from a bump map to a normal map... can you explain why we would want to do that? What benefits are there to doing it?

@RyanKingArt Жыл бұрын

Well for instance, if your creating a 3d model or 3d asset that your selling, and you want to use the standard color, roughness, and normal maps, then you might want to convert the bump map to normal map. Or maybe you want to use the model in a game engine, or another 3d program, and the other program or game engine only supports normal maps, but not bump maps. In most cases, you can just use a bump map, and it should work totally fine, but there may be some cases where you'd want to convert it to a normal map.

Two ways: 1> make the brush size much smaller and set how deep you want the scratches to be, then each brush stroke you make will be one scratch. 2> obtain or make an image of greyscale scratches. load that image in place of the Cloud Noise texture and either use the Anchored option to draw in each scratch image or use the Stencil option to "rub in" the scratch texture.

watch the part on 3:07 again. You have to set up the bump texture. it has to be perfectly grey because in height map texture black=no changes white= change so if it's grey then it will be in the middle by default so you can draw on it with white or black. also it's important to UV unwrap the object

@@RyanKingArt That's funny. I started out as a texture artist doing my "Art Therapy" with mostly Substance Painter and missed out on a deep understanding of procedural texturing because I though it slowed down rendering too much and any procedural set with a mix shader couldn't be baked out to game engines which was mostly what I did this stuff for... mods to PC games... Now with learning more about Geonodes and procedural textures I see how I was mostly mistaken... mostly because I don't want to use game engines to render anymore... That being said, until you watch a tutorial from Substance Painter guy, (prior to Adobe buying everything everyone dared create that they didn't create) who's so condescending you want to strangle him, but you don't and he doesn't teach but holds back more than he shows... you haven't lived. I looked to see if I could share a link but to my surprise he ain't there in the Adobe Substance 3D land. Nothing missed, but the burn. Stay safe, and enjoy what you can for as long as you can, because Idt we have as much time as everyone thinks.
