Title: enviroment map color
Post by: Irv on November 01, 2008, 04:42:27 am

this is the chrome enviroment map that is in the manual and then toneing
it down with steven's metals. but then had to use a neg emissive.
but in doing so I don't get this color in real time only with the scanline render.

so I'm still looking for a brass colored enviroment map that i can use
in realtime. if anybody has them that would be nice,I'm not good at
making enviroments. and can't seem to find them anywhere

Simple: open the environment map (attached), open it in a paint program (like pixia or gimp) and use layers to make the map a more brass like color.
Save the map and use this one as environment-map.

I'm don't use paint pro, so i can't help you with that. But it shouldn't be so hard: open the image, set a new overlay layer and take a brown/reddish brush.

The link works for me.
The environment map is nicely done!
The method looks like it was done nicely, and I commend you on that.  Thanks for sharing!
