Re: ASCII 3D file formats
oh yeah forgot to say, the maxscript tutorial is part of the official 3dsmax helpfiles: "How To ... Output Geometry Data To Text File" longshot, we cant give you "generic" scriptlines, the different 3d apps have different script apis and languages. however I think that given you want a custom format, also likely means you… -
Re: zBrush Export Problem -Export buttons greyed out, and frozen
I'm afraid I can't help you with your export/save as issue, but I can say in zbrush: import/export - is for importing a mesh that is not a Ztool. (ex. .obj) exporting is for exporting the Ztool (from ztool to .obj) open/saving - is for saving AND opening a ztool. (ex: something you've been sculpting in zbrush, a .ztl file)… -
Re: QuadRemesher : new auto-retopo plugin for Maya, 3DSMax, ...
Thanks a lot Bibiboo. My goal is to understand why the remeshing is not working well on the edge with creased normals (red arrow area) It should create an edge loop in the remeshing on these edges. So that the remeshing would not look smoothed on those edges... For this I would need the input file in a ".max" file (not… -
Re: Stylized Fantasy Town
Oh god... been a while since I've seen this problem. Giving me nasty flashbacks. This happened to be when I would re-import an FBX that was already in my scene into my package that had edited verts. Freeze/Resetting transformations didn't solve this, I had to export another FBX, import that into UDK with a new name, and… -
Re: [TF2] How to create weapon skins from scratch?
Long story short, you're going to have to extract the Nail Grenade model (and convert it into an .obj with the use of a program in the link), load the .obj up in any 3D package program like 3ds Max, Maya, or Blender, and either create your own UV map or export the one currently on the object (depending if it already has… -
Re: Mudbox blows chunks?
Yeah mud can be picky. A few things : - Try to work with .obj meshes showing up at roughly the same size as the included mudbox primitives. Don't scale up your object inside mud if it's too small. Simply re-export it at a more appropriate scale from your main 3D app. - freeze (the blue stuff) is a masking tool. Whatever is… -
Re: Skin Modifier - Transfer weights between bones.
I'll assume you use 3ds max. Yes you can. Look into skin utilities. You'll find two buttons: "Extract skin data to mesh" and "Import skin data from mesh". The first one makes a mesh object that stores your weights. The other you use after selecting that mesh object and the object you want to transfer weights to (same obj… -
Re: Issues with baking normals, from Modo to substance painter
There's nothing obviously wrong with your meshes or UV layout in those images. The artefacts are almost certainly caused by busted normals and/or busted UVs some things to try... Are any of your UVs mirrored or overlapping? move the mirrored/overlapped bits outside 0-1 space Using .obj ? Stop it and use .fbx (obj is shit)… -
My unwraping sucks, not sure what im doing wrong.
I get the basics of unwrapping but it seems I keep making mistakes but I'm not quite sure what they are. I keep getting stretching in parts and overall just not sure if I'm doing this right. So here is some textures and Maya scene file and obj for users not using Maya. Any help is greatly appreciated. Maya file:… -
Anyone have a file format list with specs of each format?
I was discussing best practices with one of our modelers today and we were going over the differences, pros and cons of .fbx files versus .obj and it got me searching to see if I could find a comprehensive list of all of the 3D file formats and their characteristics. FBX for example has the pro of keeping hiearchy intact…
