This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing modules.
You can drag and and drop to rearrange.
You can edit modules to customize them.
The left side has modules you can add!
Some modules you can only access when you get a subscription.
Some modules have options that are only available when you get a subscription.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain modules can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
hiya! I was just curious if you started on the collab thingy yet. dont mean to pester but I guess I'm anxious to see what something I do in 2d will look 3d. Have a nice day
man i hope you can make a vid tut for the toon shader many ppl are trying to find out how and not use mental ray - i find yours easy but im kinda confused at the clamp node part XD
Hey - sorry for the delay. I looked back at that tutorial and realized that I am doing some things fairly goofy. The clamp node can be confusing. The surface luminance output is a single number. But the clamp expects a vector input, which is THREE numbers (in this case, representing red, green and blue inputs). So that's why you have to connect the out value to a inputR (although you could just as easily use inputG or inputB). The clamp performs its operation on that input, and then you take the outputR and send it wherever you want it to go (to drive the ramp UVs in this case).
The thing I realized is that the multiplication step is unnecessary. It has the drawback of only allowing dark outline colors (which sucks). I'm actually in the process of rewriting it, because there are some other aspects that I found out that can ALSO make the entire thing much cooler. I'll let you know when it is done.
XD i got it working anyways, the thing is i cant figure out how to put texture on the custom toon shade XD im not that very familiar with nodes yet since im used to UV mapping also im new at using maya still learning stuff,and i wanted to try out new things, im very impressed by the way you used your toon shader, i got motivated and started learning more
Cool - since your model is UV mapped, that is no problem. Presumably, if you did something similar to the tutorial, then you are using a ramp to control the color, based on the incoming light source. If you select one of the colors in the ramp, you can click the little icon to the right of the color swatch rectangle to bring up the texture chooser window. From there you just select "image file" or whatever it is and plug in your texture location (the same way as if you were assigning a texture to the color channel of a lambert or something).

one thing though, how do i apply texture image with the shader?

Does that make sense?
