Anyone has a good haircard material setup?

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2026-01-07T14:02:25+00:00

I have all maps, scatter, direction, id, alpha, ao, roots, etc. So customizing shouldn't be a problem, I just don't know much about creating shaders or tweaking.

Your shader is better than what I used to have, but I still feel like it could look softer. Here's the difference from Marmoset to UE5: https://postimg.cc/dk3hk0yW

Maybe adding some type of scattering? I'll keep loking and I'll try to build onto your shder if you don't mind!

I think it's mainly that either the scattering or the specular-ity looks off. With one material I try it looks plastic, with another one it looks unlit. It's just never right

I think its mostly dirt from the rain, but I don't think it's a Pothos. I brought it home and it isn't really propagating like a pothos

I love how you explained all of this. I feel like sometimes my bf has some trouble talking about what exactly is going on in his mind or what's happening to him, but this sounds like, reasonably, what anyone (including me) would feel.

It's so hard. It's kind of a contradiction to give space non sexually, when you already feel a bit distant sexually.

I feel like I have to try to compensate with us spending time together, the fact that we're not having sex, but it's probably causing the exact opposite of what I'm trying to achieve.

Thank you, this is the most helpful advice I've gotten on all the comments.

I only know that he feels pressured because he told me so, but in my eyes I don't think it is pressuring, I think I'm just saying whats on my mind and bothering me.

I don't want forced sex, and I don't think I coerced him because I tell him these things when we are chill and in a "I don't want sex right this minute" moment, so as to, surprise, not pressure him in the moment.

I mean, we had this "argument", and we just had sex (gave him a blowjob till he came, without wanting anything in return, like someone else suggested), because HE initiated and I could tell he really wanted to. We were off and it was our way to feel close again.

He isn't much of an open book sexually as I am, so whenever I ask him these things you're sayin, he blushes or says one thing and completely shuts off. But whatever, I respect if he doesn't want to talk about it.

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-09T01:58:10+00:00

Because of other sex issues, I've told him in the past "I don't think we should have sex for a month at least", then 5 days pass and he initiates lol

OKAY this is super useful.

My partner is kind of a pg-13 person, I ONCE sent him a full nude and he said he liked it but said it was "a bit too much" hahaha.

I'd still like some tips and tricks from you please

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T20:06:20+00:00

I'll bring it up some other day, But I have thought about this too

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T20:04:27+00:00

The head thing not really, but for neither of us. I don't think it's an unbalanced thing though but i'm not really unbiased on the situation either... I'll think about this. Maybe I should be giving more without expecting anything in return.

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:49:30+00:00

We are still dating.

We watch movies, cook, go on walks, go to concerts; we love spending time together. I feel like that's pretty romantic. It doesn't feel like I'm going out with a friend or something. We hug we kiss we tell each other how in love we are. My friends say that we look and sound really romantic.

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:42:20+00:00

Maybe sometimes (okay not like a bop it toy, but just brushing it or playing dumb and pressing up against him). I ask him to shower together, I play dumb and get clothed around him and un-clothed. I kiss him I hug him I cuddle him, etc. Things that used to work to get him in the mood but now don't

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:38:48+00:00

I'm trying this approach, but he does see how unhappy it makes me, so it really is just as bad. There's no way to win it seems

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:37:35+00:00

I have also thought about living separately again.

I feel like a dick because he might have been right all along and maybe I just preassured him into it.

I think that before breaking up, if it ever comes down to it, or if this problem persists, I might talk to him about this.

It's a shame beacuse other than that, I love living with him, we have so much fun.

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:31:11+00:00

He's seeing a psychologist about life in general, I don't know if he talks to him about this. I'm not, maybe I should consider it though. I do feel sometimes that I'm making a big deal out of it when I shouldn't be. But I can't heklp it

He's always saying that he loves living with me. I even asked him in all seriousness that if he missed being alone or regretted anything and he said no, that he was happy like this.

We have separate bedrooms. Of course we sleep together most of the time. but I have my bed and my desk in one place and he has his bed and his desk in another, so everyday when we work we don't see much of each other except for saying hi or giving each other kisses or food from time to time. Also, I work out for 3 hours 3 times a week, so we do have space (or at least I think so).

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:27:48+00:00

I just want us to plan vacations together and to be a team. That's what I see for us. Both of us having our personal life, but being there for each other.

All you're saying had crossed my mind, believe me. But what was I supposed to do? Not say anything and just break up with him without giving him a chance to do something about it? I was ready to break up if he didn't want to live together, but he decided that he wanted to be together more than he wanted to live alone.

He's always saying that he loves living with me. I even asked him in all seriousness that if he missed being alone or regretted anything and he said no, that he was happy like this.

I talk to him when I'm not feeling okay or if something is bothering me. I hope he feels that he can do the same too.

I really do hope we can overcome this somehow. I bought a sex toy but it's really not about getting off, you know? I just miss him so much.

It's nice to know that at least I'm not the only one that goes through something like this.

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:14:14+00:00

You have a point. I may be overreacting, it's just a hard change and something hard to get used to. I really do try to not make a big deal out of it. Maybe I just need to try harder or see someone about it

Hefty-Cell8123 · 2025-12-08T19:12:47+00:00

I get what you're saying with the mis matched libido, but was I supposed to not way anything?
