Sun daze by Shivaxi

Shivaxi is a gamer, music producer, DJ, photographer, film maker, actor. His music style is mostly DnB. Not that I’m a particular fan of this style but I think it fits UT when it is well made 😀

Most of Shivaxi’s UT music tracks are built for gaming, not for casual listening. They are made to be use in maps with continuous looping. Shivaxi also collaborate a lot with other music composer like Archer6621, Cybernetika, Mellow Sonic to name a few.

So, I add Shivaxi’s Sun daze (UT edit 1.0) music track to my UT4 music collection, I edited the track from the original WAV file, compressed it in Flac, completed all the information and then uploaded the file to my GoogleDrive account. All that for casual listening. You’ll be able to truly enjoy Sun daze (UT edit 1.0) in a lossless format.

To listen the track, head over Soundcloud. To leave your comments, go here. Finally, download the track by clicking (DL). Enjoy !

Link Gun hi-poly renders

Watching this week stream, I was amazed to see the Link Gun hi-poly renders! Seriously, YemYam modeling skills are fantastic 😀 Still, the colors aren’t set yet. As YemYam mentioned in the Link Gun dev thread “This is NOT the material look, although for the in game version we did stick with something similar yet more weathered, and of course logos and decals and stuff that bring the design some life. We kept it a little on the plain side because we loved all of the paint-overs and color variants so we want the default to be more plain and the custom skins/textures to be more extreme.” So now, the pretty renders 🙂

UE4 links (guide, tut) update 9

I constantly check for new UE4 tuts by Epic and many as been released since 4.7 and 4.8. Many tuts as been redone and new tuts as been made to reflect the 4.7 and up changes. Brief, I pass trough all Epic tuts and update all the links I have in my UE4 links (guide, tut) page. In all, 113 links and descriptions have been added / changed. It took me a considerable amount of time to be honest but at least, it is up-to-date 😀 Those are the changes I’ve made. Enjoy 🙂

Metal plates textures by Nobiax

It as been a very long time since Nobiax release a new free package. This new pack include 36 metal plates (1 diffuse + metalness for 36 normal maps). The diffuse is not copper, you choose the type of metal (copper, gold or whatever) in the color of the material in Unity5, UE4 or whatever engine you use. It goes from basic shape plates, to slightly sci-fi, to Victorian style 😀

You can found all info and comment at his deviantArt page and then download from there. Or you can also download the new metal plates textures pack from my GoogleDrive 🙂
