UDK uses directional lightmaps, and to compute that directionality UDK has to establish some tangent basis for the surface. The editor does this based on whatever UV's are in channel 0 by default. So, if your doing any kind of texture atlasing or mirroring UV's with normal maps, you can do a little trick. Since your lightmap UV's will always be laid out nice and clean with no overlaps or mirroring, put your lightmap UV's in channel 0 so UDK calculates tangent basis based on those, then your diffuse UV's in channel 1. Then use the coordinate node to set all your UV coordinates to channel 1 in your shaders.

It takes a few extra steps to set up your materials like this but it should fix the issue. Otherwise, stick a mesh in front of it and cover it up [Blocked Image: http://www.polycount.com/forum/images/s…ons/poly120.gif]

I think you can either offset the texture coords of the mirrored parts by 1 or disable spec lightmaps in the material iiiiiiiiiiiirc

Geometry isn't that much of a problem anymore, especially in a corridor environment like that.

Remember when everyone hated steam?

It took them six months to make it work, so some heaven and earth had to be moved. You think they just twindled their thumbs in the meantime?

Well if the system was built for cloud storage, I'm sure they couldn't rely on using the same approach as a bedroom hacker and have it stable and optimized, but actually had to rewrite a lot of stuff to make it work. A quick hack isn't the same thing as an official update that has to go through QA and all that other stuff. I think the idea of having peoples city interact with each other and have everything in the cloud sounds like a neat idea on paper, but translated very badly into the finished product.

You know what's worse? That a lot of people IRL come up to you saying how they love your status updates but on Facebook none of them clicks like

Troubles in the first world

you should check out wasteland for arma 2 em

lul at people buying an early alpha product then whine about a unpolished experience

TIL I'm Steppenwolf

are they making it on source?

If someone is committing fraud, shouldn't you contact the authorities?

are you sure it wasn't a steam sale you were subconsciously missing?

do you have to find real life location for every environment you make? how much can you change after you have completely scanned a room? it looks really nice, but seems like you have to design everything around what you are able to scan

maybe you can give possible applicants some hints on what sort of skill level you are looking for, before they apply?

like Dean Hall, the creator, have said, if you are new to the game you really should wait until it's in a more finished and polished state
