Mastering Surface Details: Bump and Normal Maps in Blender

Bump maps and normal maps are powerful tools in 3D modeling and rendering, allowing artists to add intricate surface details without increasing geometric complexity. In Blender, these techniques are widely used to enhance the realism and visual appeal of 3D objects. This article will explore the concepts of bump maps and normal maps, their differences, and how to use them effectively in…

Honeymoon pt.5 - Shaaloani

Aetherically, there are some striking differences; but in form alone the similarities to The Qitana Ravel are uncanny. That such ruins could exist both on the first and the source.... This has given me much to think about. Come, you two, let us freshen up and make camp before nightfall. Our adventures may continue tomorrow.

I got a robot vacuum on boxing day deals and Rory is following it around supervising and honestly I think this is the best enrichment I've ever bought her.

Yes!! That random transport pod crash victim from a while back finally left, and now Wasbum are our allies!! That means all we need for the first piece of the map to the Archonexus is a buttload of wealth...

Ivy has an idea, and the Jones boys are very eager to reach the Archonexus... perhaps setting up a "fancy" hotel for a few quadrums is tolerable.

While Mechi, Alistair, and the mechanoids get to work on The Jones Brothers' Point Fleascale Hotel and Casino, Kwahu decides to go over faction relations with Ivy. Who knows? Perhaps she'll take over as our resident socialite one day!

And then, instead of helping with the construction, Kwahu decided to start fiddling with the brand-new card table. Silly boy... at least we know it's appealing, I suppose.

Bonus picture of Augustín the Boomrat mucking about with the cards that I imagine the Jones boys have in their hotel's gambling room. They just have the right "mechanitor" vibe (the... the cards, not Augustín the Boomrat.)

No Bump Maps On (Certain) Floors

I remember back in base game (or very early EPs) all of the floors pictured above had no bump maps and I liked them. But then Maxis decided to add them in and they started having those horrid dark shadows when zoomed out. Today I decided that I had enough of them and made this fix 😃

It's a tiny TXMT edit and takes almost no place. Only fixes the floors pictured above.

Compressed, clearly labeled, gif included.

i need to figure out how to make facial accessories STAT

I know the ask is about ships but could you make a non ship one with Dean and Carlos from the Winchesters? I can't think of an exact thing for Dean to say, but the first sentence can be what Dean would say for their first meeting. Thank you if you can (*^‿^*)

"I like your hair," Dean says, staring up from where he's clinging to the bottom of Mary's winter coat, and Carlos grins wide when he adds, with all the breathless gravity of a four year old eager to impress their opinions upon a new friend; "It's swooshy and it's pretty like Mommy's hair, and your-- your beads are pretty and shiny and shiny is my favorite color."

"Swooshy and pretty and shiny is exactly what I was going for, so thank you, little buddy."

Even with almost six years between now and the last time he'd seen Mary, Carlos is relieved to find that they still have a good sense of one-another -- can still communicate silently, swiftly, like they used to when it was life or death. He meets her eye, and her face softens, and understanding passes between them before he slides one of his lucky beaded bracelets -- the bloodstone one -- free.

Dean's eyes light up when he takes it.

When he smiles, he looks just like his mother.

okay so i played some more outerwilds today (with a friend for company), and uhm!!! i doubled my play time in one session (not anything extreme, but i played about 4 hours more to a total of 8 so far)

[spoilers below the cut]

im REALLY liking it, still in the stage of finding stuff, but i was able to figure out how to warp to the hanging city from the ash twin (then proceeded to lose grip of the gravity warp thingies and fling myself into space via black hole)

hoping to continue to find a warp or someway to the southern observatory on brittle hollow next!! very excited to continue this

also i found.. egg. the stuff about the supernovae i actually noticed right before talking to chert :D! theres a lot of that happening!! woohoo

Also wee :) (LOVE this guy, gonna visit him again when i have the chance in game)

Anyways!! heres my ship logs so far if anyones interested in where i'm at!!! :)

just read the new yu chapter and i can't stop crying

i'm literally

i really thought they-

*sobs*

i just think they needed a little more room to grow away from each other!! their brains still needed a little time to develop!!!

i know exactly what i think happens after the chapter ends tho he he

[moldwood]

this isnt right but how would you even begin to model this without the particle system because it has to be exported to vrm. i dont want to use curves and have to join them all but... what on earf do you do with all that medium length hair. too short to be worth all the curves too long to be just texture painted on.

[rapidhighway]

tired of game, exit game, nothing to do, open game, play for 3 hours, tired of game, exit game, nothing to do, open ga

[elidee-art]

I think my first big hurdle with texturing is going to be figuring out how to have them NOT make all my models appear to be ripped from a low-budget Myst knock-off
