Advanced Member geo_n Posted October 23, 2021 Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Is it possible to replicate the smooth shade view in 3dcoat with all the good lighting and shading into a flat rgb texture? Example of the default smooth shaded view in 3dc. The highlights and gradient lighting is what I want to replicate. So I switch to flat shade view in 3dcoat. And I baked occlusion and lighting. The result with ambient and lighmap baking. I never understood why the lightmap is so dark by default so I always adjust the levels in photoshop. The result of adjusting levels in photoshop. Obviously it's not anywhere near the same as smooth shaded view. It's missing the highlights. So I wonder if it's possible to replicate that gradient lighting effect and highlights.

Advanced Member geo_n Posted October 24, 2021 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Thanks! Will check it out. I hope it exports the model the way it looks with a baked rgb map so it looks identical in lightwave as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
