Assets: All The Street Boxes

Should be able to bake the textures down right? Thats normally how it's done when u wanna export to unreal engine for example. Oh wait this thread is 2 years old :p

Ooo- so, I don't know much about the process, but I did find out one thing: if you're using image textures, they have to be plugged directly into the shader node. I had a few times when I had a saturation or levels tweak in the middle there, and then the texture wasn't included. Maybe that's your problem??

Tyler Babb

Yeah FBX, thanks! You are a rockstar!

Ian Hubert

Into which type of format? FBX?

Tyler Babb

I’ve been trying to export models with textures in Blender and I can’t seem to do it. Can anyone help?

Ian Hubert

AH! That's awesome! Yeah this was my first time trying to export FBXs, really- I'm going to try to do it as much as I can in the future!

George Moise

Fucking awesome dude! I using this for C4D and I didn't even have to reconnect any textures. I was so happy I could've cried!

Ian Hubert

You should!! They'll come in crazy handy!

Ian Hubert

I have the WORST organization at this point (basically just import other projects and delete everything I don't need). I'm excited to see if any of these new asset managers are what I've been wanting, though. I'd love something where you can just select the group or object and say, "Add to library", and it's just IN there and you can summon it at any time.

Felipe Galo

Thanks Ian!

Erich Stenzel

At some point we'll be able to recreate every one of Ian's movies detail for detail! :-)

it's that guy!

Man... best Patreon ever.

Tomasz Zarucki

this is so cool! thanks a lot !

Phillip Park

Wow amazing, thank you!

David Byrne

This makes me want to do the exact same process for my surroundings, street signs, random boxes and objects that are part of everyday life here in the UK. So useful!

David Byrne

Ha! Was thinking the exact same thing. Just an exercise in using this stuff to keep in in mind for future projects

Robert Gyurko

I’m gonna have to do a scene with just kitbashed elements from Patreon

Meeting Ian: I made you.

Incredible! You're releasing assets faster than I can play with them!

Anton Grandert

This is great Ian, thanks for that! I, like many others, have just started digging in to Blender, and I was wondering if you have smart way of organizing your assets? Are you using asset manager, or do you have any other smart way of doing it? Maybe you would like to share your ideas about that.

Kennisoan

Ah! That's amazing!

Jan van den Hemel

You spoil us.

Pete Burges

This sort of thing is gold to me. They're the kind of unsung, non-hero objects that every good environment needs but are way down the list of things to be modelled. The visual environmental noise that your brain filters out of everyday life, but you notice it's absence. Thanks, man! BTW you would definitely get a few bucks for these on Artstation or Gumroad. They are far more versatile and useful than somebody's bespoke and distinctive "game ready sci-fi weapon".

Nostromo

So awesome, thanks Ian!

these are really nice! I love that you pay attention to the detail by adding all this extra stuff without making the scene feel like "too much" . do you have a video on how you got started with this project and how you go about developing the story with a vfx oriented mind to fuel it?
