What you'll learn
Have you ever needed to quickly texture assets? This course, Quixel Suite 2.2, DDO Essentials, will show you the process of creating PBR (physically-based rendering) textures and materials. You will start by applying color IDs to your detailed, 3D unwrapped model in any 3D application and then export it to DDO. You will then learn how to easily and realistically texture your model in short order by using some of the PBR textures from thousands of scanned textures inside 3DO. You will also learn how to use different masking techniques to add multiple layers of details such as dirt, moss, or scratches on your model's surface. After completing this course, you'll know the basics and advanced features that you can apply to your model to create high-quality renders of your model for presentation. Required Software: Quixel Suite 2.2.
