Carson Reed(cinemamotionss) and I are literally the ones that made the animations, dude... Take a look at the description in Byf's Dynasty video for our credits

Not automatically, no. Pretty much every software has a different way to make shaders, so conversion is impossible. Its extremely rare to be able to do that. The only way to do it is to look at the techniques i employ here, and manually recreate them the way the new software does it. However I will say that these techniques are pretty standard, so your preferred software can definitely do this too. C4D, UE5, Unity, and Maya are all capable of doing it.

Thanks for the response@@Thejudsub

As a general rule of thumb, its extremely rare for any software to be able to use shaders made in a different software. So no. You would need to remake the shaders in unity

nah you wanna use the clothing shader for that. The clothing shader is like the all-purpose shader. The hair is specific to human hair. And the skin shader is specific to human skin, excluding monster skin

I use Blender 3.3 for most things for stability and compatibility with most other things

Ikr like like this is 2 years old and and it is dam near spot on

@@Lokatimar Kapfranos, the Voice talent behind it nailed the tone. It was really clear that we needed a specific kind of tone and poise to the sentences. A vengeful knight errant with tattered nobility. Fran nailed that vibe. When the first tests of her remastered audio came through I was thrilled.

Nobody agree

@@lazyvoid7107 i really don’t care if anyone agrees i’m still gonna like what i like.

I agree

my best guess for how the creator figured this out was probably by researching how BOTW/TOTK shaders worked(the math used, how colors are handled etc.) and then figuring out how to convert that into blender's shading nodes

I don't think they made these animations. It was Drexis and Carson reed

Someone didn't play Witch Queen

@@lazyvoid7107 I did enjoy witch queen and I’m quite enjoying this season as well, somthing about the hive tbh, seems like the best story always comes with that race but lightfall was an insane flop story wise, game got better like quality of life wise for sure, I’m really just a nitpicking delusional d1 lover

You have no idea how hard Bungie works, lol. This is a lore game for a reason. There would be no game play if they put on the lore in the game. What they need to do is make a movie.

Wait. Is that an actual character?

Well sure, but is there a reason to point that out?

Yeah i can agree if i did this again, i would do non-color and adjust the math nodes as necessary. I wasnt sure about it, so i didnt want to do anything that would make the masks stronger than intended. As I finished the tutorial. i was totally like "man i shouldve done it" What does "squaring smoothness" mean btw? Also the reason i didnt put a slider in is because sometimes the shader either uses metal or rubber, or neither at all, which would require two additional sliders(one for rubber/metal toggle and one for the Effect On/Off because it overrides the specular) instead of just the single slider youre proposing. It comes off as more confusing in the UI. It makes more sense to me to just plug in the inputs as needed

@@Thejudsub just take the smoothness you put in and square it (it doesn't really matter if you use multiply or power), and for the sliders, I'd just mix between the rubber and metal effects using the factor, and then mix with the mask, so you have mtl/rubber mask as one input and metal/rubber as the second

@@tamoozbr Oh thats what you mean by "square it". I more or less know what youre getting at now. You mean to gamma correct the non-color back to sRGB by applying a Power of 2.2 to the individual masks(as necessary)

@@Thejudsub usually if it isn't color data it's either as-is or 2

@@tamoozbr Ive read a few papers on the topic a while ago. The best way to switch from Non-color/Linear to sRGB with a Gamma/Power node is to input a 2.2. And for vice versa, switching from sRGB to Linear/Non-color, you do a Gamma/Power of 0.4545. Obviously there is a slight difference due to fact that it isnt a true color space change, but this is the closest you can get using such a simple workaround. Take a look at the Gamma Multipliers section here in this paper. www.scantips.com/lights/gamma3.html#:~:text=But%20if%20you%20wanted%20to%20see%20linear,and%20Gamma%20sliders%2C%20both%20of%20which%20match

Thats literally just a Layer Weight node. Why go through the effort?

@@Thejudsub the layer weight has some extra math

@@tamoozbr An inverted NdotV is exactly the same as a Layer Weight. Beat for beat. i.gyazo.com/4d4cc4a45147a05cffcdecbb0793ec50.gif

I imported the specular map because it is used later in the next few parts of the tutorial. Also how is it completely wrong if it is working as intended? Can I have an example of your setup as reference? I tried plugging the Light Rotation and Normal into a Dot Product node as you said and it didnt work properly.

@@Thejudsub unfortunately I can't send images here, but the reason it didn't work is that I mistyped the vector, the correct one is (0,0,1) rather than (0,1,0)

​@@tamoozbr What exactly is a 1 here in this instance? Is that a full rotation of 360 degrees? Can you try to explain node for node what your setup looks like so that I can understand? Here's a gif of what i have. Top setup is mine, bottom setup is what I believe you are trying to explain: i.gyazo.com/4f7c779ef23ebdad485a13310bea70e5.mp4

Youre not giving me a lot to go on for what went wrong. How did you apply the material? What does the model look like right now with the shader on it? Did you append it to your blender project, as you should? Did you delete the Sun or Empty? Did you put the textures in properly according to the directions at the top of the texture nodes?

@@Thejudsub Not the easiest way here to explain I agree haha I followed the "readme" recommendation, so I appended the blend file to the project where I imported all the Link models (clothes, hair etc). When I append it the way you suggest, it import the Sun and the empty, nothing else. So I append it by importing the whole collection and got the materials, so I was deleting the nodes and replacing it with your shader nodes. I put the exact right texture you labelled at the top of texture nodes. What I have is weird texture, for the hair I just don't have one. Append your blend file is the only action we're supposed to do ? As I said earlier a quick tutorial would be super helpful on your channel if you can of course ☺

@@Eikori I dont know what could be wrong aside from the fact that maybe you have a blender version earlier than 3.3, which could cause compatibility issues. Theres also probably the issue of ModelsResource splitting up channel packed textures like the SPM, which does more harm than good. But aside from that, the process should literally just be appending the material, slapping the material on the model, and putting the right textures in.

@@Thejudsub If we can discuss about it tell me where we can, that would be great

@@Thejudsub I managed to fix lot of issues but still remains some : Forced shadows are not showing on the face, one ear has a bugged texture. Other than that I fixed everything

And another wrong thing, oryx was ‘auryx’ while killing akka

This depiction is accurate when comparing it to the artwork in the official Lore book though. And the statue in Witch Queen

yeah im not 100% sure on that, but i just do sRGB

specular maps (black and white) are usually non color

She already have her design
