    Recently talked about using tiled normal maps: Here's a great lil tutorial on making your own in Blender

    0:59
    Seamlessly tiling normal or displacement maps are great for easily adding details to models. You can create these maps yourself by sculpting on a Plane, using the Tiling feature.

    In any ethical , what I show is up to me only. What you see is up to you only. Community sourced filters are a nice convenience. Tech companies must have absolutely no part in this decision, or the metaverse is fucked -- and arguably not a metaverse.

    Final tips: If using alpha as transparency: Use opacity channel in Substance to add Alpha channel Add an opacity only fill @ value 1. Mask / anchor your transparent area *invert the mask* Export with a setup like: - Crank up the normal tiling in shader. Use Blend from Base

    You can also *texture* (color) per RGB section too - combined with alpha values, hue shifting, you can do some cool stuff: Note that it is masked in the grey and black sections

    Back to shader: Can use seamless tiled *normal maps* per RGB area - tiny (128/256px) normal maps, but tiled around 50-100 times in the shader, giving you a higher effective TD. You can combine these with an base nrm map for creases and baked normal details etc: (Blend with Base)

    Hey V, that's cool, but how do I make that mask? In Substance, you can create one from an ID map - Create seperate R / G / B color only layers, Mask with Color Selection and reference the ID map I blur each layer and add a Contrast filter - helps with compression later

    RGBA masking requires an RGBA texture - this defines where the shader acts on the mesh. Left, map. Right, shader setup. The region in red can be changed in shader to display as yellow, etc.

    RGBA Masking is a particularly handy feature of the shader - similar systems are used in game dev, but it's particularly handy in VRchat - good performance, and easily customisable
