Hmm, can i create the trim sheets using normals in blender, then texturing in substance painter, and importing it back to blender? I dont feel comfortable with substance designer haha

@pm5857 3 жыл бұрын

So do you still have separate materials that all reference the same trim sheet as their texture, or is it all one material too? Like are the windows and bricks using the same shader?

@fnmarket 3 жыл бұрын

Different materials reference the same texture so that you can still get the variation you need between windows, bricks and metal etc. :)

@@KugleeKuglee Yeah the best term word I had available for ages was Texture Atlas, but it's broad and can include collating single-object textures in one image to save on materials+draw calls. Trim Sheet is useful for describing a texture-first -uv-second, an inversion of the uv->texture process often used on detailed/hand painted characters/weapons

Can you just make a trim sheet with photoshop or Gimp? Just import your textures, scale them down and move them around and you’re done?? Every tutorial has you making them with geometry. 🧐

doesnt the brick seamless repeating pattern need to be a full square to work?

@petyavodolaz Жыл бұрын

From that explanation it sounds more like an atlas texture rather than trim sheet texture? Like in that texture that you showed, only the brick wall and that ornament stripe can be seamlessly tiled in one direction. Or am I wrong?

So basically : for a unique asset the texturing is done according to the uv mapping and with trim sheets is the opposite?

@JoshuaLundquist Жыл бұрын

I think you mean for a unique asset the model's geometry & UV map determine the texture, whereas with trim sheets, one starts with the texture and moves the UV's of a model and designs the geo to fit that texture.

i've seen some pro artist create their own material on substance designer (concrete or bricks) for their envi and not using any trim sheets , what's the difference between create 1 whole material and trim sheets? what's the pros and cons between 2 of them?

@sudanemamimikiki1527 2 жыл бұрын

Own created are usually better looking than image textures, but they are harder to make and usually end up costing more processing power. Quite frankly if you are doing 3d for games then image textures will do you fine.

This trim sheet workflow reminds me of the approach used by Ian Hubert for super quickly creating 3D models based off of photos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJDMnHpjqsRpqJI&ab_channel=IanHubert Really smart and I don't know why I haven't incorporated this into my workflow yet (possibly bc C4D kinda sucks with showing textures in the UV editor) but definitely going to!

@付和雷同-j5b Жыл бұрын

If you use an entire photograph for your building, you can not reuse some texture you actually can share between multiple parts of your model. For example, you really don't need a big texture of entire wall for your building. Because of the repetitive nature of "wall texture" you can share it with a lots of wall in your building. So all the things you need is the texture packed with all of materials you want to use in your model. It reduces the number of draw calls in real time rendering (because the number of draw calls depend on the number of materials, usually. So if you pack your material as one texture in one material, the number of draw call become one!!) and you can improve the quality of texture because you can use a lot more texel by sharing them. If you don't care about real time use there's no benefit for most of the cases but it's useful to reduce required memory in offline rendering situations, too.

Just last week, I was working on a game similar to Demolition Derby and was creating textures like this, but didn't know these were called "Trim Sheets", for mobile games we're always using modular assets and sometimes these Trim Sheets are a part of a bigger Atlas.

@fnmarket 4 жыл бұрын

Yes! A texture atlas is the perfect way to describe a trim sheet

@Gorongirl 3 жыл бұрын

I tend to distinguish them in two ways. With texture atlases, I tend to see them assets that may or may not tile-for example, assets that aren’t necessarily designed to tile, but are brought together after authoring to optimize. You can atlas a bunch of characters or hero props on a single texture atlas, for example. You also may or may not plan to atlas these textures from the start, whereas with trim sheets, many of the textures are designed with tiling in mind and are pre-planned to be on the same sheet. They don’t need to be distinguished this way, but I tend to organize them into those two groups, with those thoughts in mind. But the rules are flexible.

Your like the 4th video to do this topic starting with Substance is everyone following a trend? Also i find placing similar materials on the same sheet more effective so say i may have 7 types of wood, all my windows on another so i can just drag say window material and pick the window look I want or change floor types by just moving over the UV. So you end up with maybe 10 material sheets but can mix them for multiple objects and even shift hue for more variation rather than having say 1 sheet containing all the materials for 1 buulding.

soo question. The difference between an Atlas and a trim sheet is that trim sheets reuse textures for similar assets? And Atlas's compiles different textures for different props in order to save space? Sorry

I read something about trim sheets over hours. And don't understand it, because English is not my first language. But you explain it in 5 minutes for noobs like me... Fantastic! May I ask you something? If I use a trim sheet for a wall for example, and every wall has another uv to get a little randomness, gives this some negative effects to loading time or something?
