I noticed you packed Rough into Blue. In UE4 DXT compression, the Green channel has the most data and because the Roughness map is the most important, Green is best for it. Also, good idea to drop the Metal map(if it's just a black/white value) and save without the alpha. That way you'll be using DXT1 compression rather than DXT5, which is 2X the memory footprint.

Now, you have two ways :) Either go to color adjustment curves and flatten every color except of red/green/blue.

Awesome tut thanks. I do have a question. If I wanted to blend 3 materials but put limits on where on the heightmap of the mesh they can spawn can I do that? Like material 1 is the brick is the base at 0height then material 2 is concrete layer and material 3 is paint always on top of concrete and each of them off have their own heightmap for details. So basically can you like divide the heightmap in zones and limit each material to a height?
@TechArtAid7 жыл бұрын
First do (height)lerp between brick and concrete, then between the result and paint layer. For each, use a part of the full height range as the mixing factor. First blending should use 0.0 - 0.5 range (remapped to 0-1), second blending 0.5 - 1.0 (again to 0-1). Like here: imgur.com/a/8Unli To remap the ranges, use the Remap node like I show here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGaviXx3pbagsKM

@MichalMilkowski7 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the tip, it certainly gave me more control (cheapcontrast -> clamp -> blend input of layer blend node). Journey of blending parameters is still going on, need more control/finetuning, for example, with high contrast on cheapcontrast, it gives single rocks appearing on blending area - similiar to what I wanted, but edges are too harsh, need to blur them a bit. Or that cheapcontrast seems to affect whole painted area (just more profoundly on blending areas), I need to somehow limit the cheapcontrast effect only to blending area, not sure yet how, probably with lerps sampling from height map.
