In this lecture, Eric Keller explores the new features and functionality of Maya 2015’s Viewport
2.0. Starting with advice on how to optimize your workstation in order to take advantage of the
new features, Keller then goes into an in-depth discussion of the special Viewport 2.0 Shader FX
and DirectX 11 materials. The described techniques allow you to view transparency, environment
reflections, ambient occlusion and translucency, all in real-time, without the need for expensive
renders. By taking advantage of the hidden power of Viewport 2.0 you can create better previews,
stunning animatics, faster 3D illustrations, and higher quality game textures and assets. The
lecture demonstrates techniques on a wide variety of example scenes including environments, props,
and creatures. Keller then describes his own techniques for creating realtime render passes that
can be composited in Nuke to create amazing results with minimal render time. You’ll learn how to
create and edit Shader FX networks, use multiple UV sets, create real-time animated textures,
generate environment reflections and apply them to surfaces, use IBLs, create real-time
displacements with the Direct X 11 shader, and tricks for generating glow and translucency effects
that can be viewed within Viewport 2.0.
Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
