I’m curious how to deal with a certain situation. On our platform users can upload their own content which could have fantastic UV’s but sometimes not so great UV’s
We’ve noticed a visual artifact when the model they upload has really bad UV’s (All on the same point, as one example). Combined with using a PBR shader with the Perturbed Normal node.
Visual artifacts are usually the model is pure black on some browsers or full of visual snow (some pixels are correct while others show up as black).
We don’t like the complexity of multiple shaders and branching code to support edge cases but maybe we’re missing something simple to resolve this.
I’ve researched the issue, and the best thing you can do is to put a similar color on it unless the user fixes the mesh UV and upload it again.
It’s hard to expect textured images to work normally.
If it’s monochrome, it’s going to look similar.
But if that’s not the case, I think reuploading is the best way
(I’m not sure, but I asked my 3Dmodeler co-worker)
Thank you again for taking a look UNIT. In my example shader I’m using the default normal map colour so the colour shouldn’t be causing issues.
The thing that gives me hope is I don’t see this issue on any other platform. Using the PBR shader in Unity, UE5 and other engines I don’t see the issues I’ve mentioned.
I’d like our users to live in a beautiful world where they don’t have to worry about UVs if they don’t want to.
No this is still an issue.
Users of our platform can upload models and we have no control over if they have clean UV’s. This means they are seeing objects that are rendered black or with black artefacts over their objects. Has there been any developments towards resolving this issue?
