Hi @mikhailkonstantin3d

You would need to drag and drop the image files you have for roughness, displacement etc into the Hypershade.

From there, you would plug them in to the right spots on an Arnold shader like what was done in that video.

He's doing a game level asset, none of this will be exported.

Asset texturing should be made in the Game software.

Hi @damaggio

Ah ok.

@mikhailkonstantin3d if you are working with game assets then like @damaggio said the shaders/materials should be done in a game engine like Unity or UE4.

yes .. I see .. thank .. no I'm not using it in a game engine I am just texturing it then I need to put a camera move it in the level and render a video for it .. then I will send it to the client then it's his work to assign the textures in his game engine .. so yes the video helped .. thank you a lot
