[CGMA 3D] UE4 Modular Environments [ENG-RUS] [ Clinton Crumple]
350₽
В курсе Модульные окружения в Unreal 4 вас научат тому, как разобраться со справочными изображениями и составить список переиспользуемых объектов.
Сформировав данный список вы затем будете использовать Maya вместе с движком Unreal, чтобы создавать полноценные окружения с готовыми для портфолио скриншотами.
nside Unreal 4 Modular Environments, you will be taught how to breakdown reference and develop a list of reusable assets. With this list created you will then use both Maya and the Unreal Engine to create a fully realized environment with portfolio screenshots.
Course Outline
Wk1
Observing Our Reference
In week one students will learn how to observe multiple references and break it up into repeated textures and assets. They will then begin with a basic block out of their scene creating and using modular pieces to fill it up. Throughout this process it will be important to think about breaking up the textures into main textures, secondary, and decals. We will also look at the tools Maya offers for modular workflows.
Wk2
Importing Blockout into UE4
In week two students will begin importing their initial Blockout meshes inside of the Unreal Engine. We will cover basic Unreal 4 tools, grid snapping, and using our modular meshes inside of Unreal 4 to build our scene. Students will also begin to flesh out their visual narrative aspects of the scene.
Wk3
Building Our Textures
In week three students will take the plans they made in week one and two to start to break up their models and their respective textures into two lists. Ones that they would like to tackle as tileables and the others as uniques. Students will also take note if any large scale sculpting is needed from ZBrush.
Wk4
Building Textures in Photoshop
In week four students will learn how to create repeatable textures using a Maya and Photoshop. With emphasis on ensuring repeatability without making it obvious across large surfaces. We will first establish our Normal, Metalness, and Ambient Occlusion we will be using for the final textures.
Wk5
Building Textures in Quixel
In week five, students will learn how to create textures using Quixel Suite for both tiling and unique texture sets. We will add interesting “story” elements to textures (such as wear, decay, scratches, dust, etc. that tell the story of the texture) Albedo, Roughness, Specular, Metallic, Normal maps.
Wk6
Modular Application
In week 6 students will apply their new modular skills and learn the importance of modular modeling and re-use within assets and architecture.This process will also cover applying our tiling textures to the models(UV Mapping) while we are finalizing our models and creating simple Unreal 4 shaders for our models in the engine.
Wk7
In Depth UE4 Shader Treatment
In week 7 students will will learn how to create more advanced shaders that can be used for vertex painting, color variation, and exposing parameters in material instances. We will also look at creating a master material to ease the control of the majority of the assets within the scene. These features will help us to make our modular pieces look more unique and less “tiling” inside of the engine. We will also cover setting up our decals and the thought process behind what should be a “decal” and what can be “vertex painted”.
Wk8
Secondary Details
In week 8 students will learn how to add secondary details to their scene. Such as wires/cables,signs, small props, and storytelling. Students will also spend time to focus on development of the visual story elements within the scene.. Lastly, we will be creating some additional modular models that can be used as secondary details “on top” of our large modular pieces for variation and asymmetry within our scene.
Wk9
Unreal Engine Lighting Setup
In week 9 students will begin adding lights to their Unreal 4 scene and recognizing the importance of colors. We will see how to breakup the repetitiveness of the scene with different lighting environments and how shadows can work to our advantage. At this point we can also begin looking at composition for our final renders within the scene.
Wk10
Finalize The Scene
In week 10 we will take everything we have learned to add any additional details, decals, props, vertex painting, and lighting to “finalize the scene.” We will also learn how to take the highest quality screenshots within the Unreal Engine and see how “post process” volumes can add a great deal of interest to our scenes. We will also cover simple post process tweaks of our screenshots inside of photoshop. Students will have between 4 — 5 Final images of the scene they have created at this point. And a handful of textures/re-usable assets for future scenes.
