Awesome demo! I know how to use substance painter to bake, but i still enjoyed following the video.

Thanks for the video, really informative and precise❤. Recently I was trying different approaches for the retopo & baking process and it is great to see that some of them are used by professionals😄.

Sorry if this is silly but I keep replaying the Method 2 portion of the video and I don't understand how you had multiple subtools all exported as a single low poly and high poly FBX? All of the different parts of the glove were kept as separate subtools but you were able to export it as one FBX to Substance? This is what I'm trying to do with my model right now because I want to keep all the subtools on parts like the sleeves and boots separate but I want them to be one single low poly and high poly basically. Could you try to explain it to me like I'm 5 maybe lol. I appreciate your videos a ton btw you're genuinely the most helpful teacher out there!

Maybe dumb question, I’m totally new and don’t understand totally: Are we taking a highly detailed mesh and baking a snap shot of those details. Then, we simplify the mesh by removing the details. Then finally we bring the details back in the baked snap shot as a texture? Is that the technical process?

@animarch3D Жыл бұрын

No such thing as a dumb question brother! So this is the general process. 1. You have a high poly mesh, that you want to bake (or as you said snapshot the details) to a low poly mesh. 2. Build the low poly mesh around the high poly so it’s the same size, in Maya or blender or wherever using a retopo tool. 3. Bring that low poly into substance painter 4. Load the high poly in to bake the high res details to that new low poly mesh. Which is then now held in the texture information. Hope that helps man, if you need any more help hit me up on Insta or ArtStation and I can give you the working files 👌🏼

The second method, is closer to what you have said though yep. Take a simplified version of a high poly, and bake the high poly details to that simplified mesh. This method requires no retopo, and just used a lower subdivision of the existing mesh. So yea you had that process down by the sounds of it!

@mattkaiser8984 Жыл бұрын

@@animarch3D Oh, thank you! It depends on what you want to do though right? If I want mesh deformation for cinematic or cutscenes, I do the first method? The second method works if it’s not going to be closely seen? Also, do the details you bake onto the low poly mesh, will those deform properly? Like in the case of this glove: if the character moves the fist deforming the wrist, will the baked details deform properly? Or will they stretch?

@animarch3D Жыл бұрын

Correct, so the first method is more of a game engine workflow, for every high poly Mesh, you’ll have a new retopod low poly. Ad as far as deformation, that’s where you need to be a bit clever with adding extra loops to allow for deformation, and where to hide your UV seams! I would almost always do some version of retopology if I was doing a cinematic or game character. But if you’re just rendering a portfolio piece none of that really matters. Hope that helps man!

@@animarch3D Awesome! I'm subscribed, I just got into this a couple of days ago. I'm a programmer by trade, but I can't stop geeking out about this stuff. Now I'm looking at the world differently after learning about topology and modeling. Thanks for the help!
