Really, it has just taken my models from zero to hero. It really is the go-to choice for blockbuster films and AAA games, so why not try it out? You will be amazed at the level of realism it will give your models. Non-PBR shaders can take a lot of work to make them look realistic. PBR will get you the best possible look for your models, in the shortest amount of time. If you want to be able to create models that look as true-to-life as possible, then there is really no need to use older shading systems. However, PBR is becoming an increasingly important part of the hyper-realistic CG scene. I am a big fan of models with ‘basic’ ‘painted’ textures, so I don’t always need (or want) to make use of PBR shading systems. Want to go even further in-depth to really learn about PBR? Here are a couple of my favourite resources:Ī wonderfully informative PBR blog from marmoset: Ī youtube video from Gamers Nexus, pinpointing some of the major reasons why PBR rocks: It takes all the good of old shading systems and proceeds to completely blow them out-out-the-water when it comes to realistic renders.Īnother interesting tidbit about PBR is that it tends to separate metal materials from non-metals, as they respond quite differently to light. PBR shading systems will take the shape, thickness, transparency and conservation of energy into account before rendering out light. It seeks to emulate diffusion and reflection as closely as possible to how this occurs in real life. PBR is set apart from its predecessors by utilising highly detailed and complex algorithms in order to calculate the behaviour of light and surfaces. PBR is short for physically based rendering, which is an advanced way of rendering materials/textures so that they behave and react to light much like they would in the real world. ![]() So recently I’ve been doing a tonne of research into PBR. ![]()
