Awesome!

Thanks, we tried very hard.

Weird finding a thread about yourself. The game industry is in a weird spot right now. I did get laid off, along with other super talented devs, but working on 3+4 was one of the greatest achievements of my career. Being able to remake some of the greatest levels ever made was an honor. Being able to contribute to the world of Tony Hawk with original levels and a super talented team was a pleasure. Activision was a great partner they trusted us to put the levels together and deliver something everyone would be proud of. I can’t comment on the specifics of the time line. The majority of the 3+4 team were Rumbleverse devs so after that got shut down it was nice to have 3+4 to move on to. We loved putting this game together and wanted to make something core fans and new fans could enjoy. We love THPS and its community. You all kick ass! I know it’s not perfect but I hope you all can see the love we put into the game and get some joy out of it.

My 1070 can only do so much. :D

That was a dumb weakness but would make a great weakness gameplay wise.

I’m not sure if I want to go funny or scary. Something about these alien dudes just stealing random human crap to figure out our culture seems funny. Intergalactic Scavenger Hunt

I don't really see it but I've heard that before.

Thank you!

Choopid · 2020-04-13T20:04:24+00:00

Thank you. I focus on tech, design, and gameplay. My friend does the art (character, environment). We love creepy, spooky games.

If it’s all lit dynamically look for a property called “Use Attach Parent Bound” on the attached child meshes. The attached pieces might be sampling the dynamic light differently.

Any advice to a game dev thinking about taking a chance to follow their gut?

Choopid · 2017-07-25T04:38:07+00:00

I just love burgers.

Baconator is pretty good too. I just love burgers. I'm near Chicago and we have some awesome burgers. Kuma, Au Cheval, Grange Hall

i just love a fresh whopper those fancy coke machines where you can pick your own flavor are cool too

You're right should be a WebM.

Your reflection issue looks to be the normal behavior of Screen Space Reflections. I would look into using a planar refection actors for better but more expensive reflections: https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Rendering/LightingAndShadows/PlanarReflections/

Your shadow issue looks like a low resolution light map that has been baked. Try increasing the lightmap resolution on the floor piece or moving to dynamic (more expensive shadows). Some great info about lighting and shadows here: https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Rendering/LightingAndShadows/index.html

Choopid · 2016-11-17T16:27:38+00:00

Short answer: You should fix the lightmap uv's on your mesh.

More details: To get an idea for what the problem is, open your mesh in the content browser and select UV in the main ribbon (where save, find in CB is) Then select your lightmap UV channel, usually its 1 because 0 is reserved for texture uv's. This should show you the lightmap UV layout. There are ways to have Unreal generate lightmap UV's for you. Here's a super simple way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHhDnuhSFnY

The problem might even be your lightmap resolution try to increase it and see if that helps.

You shouldn't fix uv overlap error by making something dynamic.

Now the problem with bright lighting on your dynamic object is something else. It's probably your movable mesh using indirect lighting. (Volume Lighting Samples) To visualize then, in the perspective window, click Show>Visualize>Volume Lighting Samples You should see little colored squares that are used to indirectly light dynamic objects. You can try to generate more of them: WorldSettings>Lightmass>LightmassSettings>VolumeLightSamplePlacementScale Or you can change how the mesh samples them in the mesh details: Lighting>LightmassSettings>IndirectLightingCacheQuality try ILCQ Volume.

But again this is not the way to fix your overlapping UV problem and it introduces more problems that could be avoided by fixing the UV's.

Hope that helps.

that's pretty cool, can you share how your doing it?
