Using 3ds Max To Makes The Materials And Lighting In Scenes Of “Clone”

2019-07-022 min read

This is a production process of a second-generation game scene model. The main software used is 3ds Max.

Model and texture

1. The basic model

Step one, I make the approximate shape of the scene as a reference, then put the shape of the model base in 3ds Max, and then make the following props with the basic shape, the wall of the scene and the UV of the ground will be reused. Part of the props I slowly added according to the scene.

With a small pattern that is made, it can make the repeatability of some models look less obvious.

2. Production of prop

The production process of the prop model is basically the same, first the high mold, the baking normal map, and then the low mold.
Here is a simple example:

High and low modes of small objects in Figure 4.

3. Reuse the UV and small pattern

Wall UV reuse:

Reuse of ground UV maps.

Reuse of small patterns.

4. The production of textures

For textures we need to use diffsue, specular, normals, displacement, gloss, detail, and detail (gradient can also be used). The detail can be done with the diffsue, and the gloss must be done in the specular channel in the old version.

If you used the latest version, then put in the normals channel, displacement placed in its own channel. Export the tif, pay attention to the normals_dnn, displacement_displ, normals_dnna, using underscore plus suffix.
