Hey guys. Is it possible to find/create a script that takes unwrapped, randomly rotated UV shells and aligns them in the UV square according to the model's position in 3d space? I can do this by hand by rotating all the UV shells so that if I put a checker map with arrows, they all point/flow in the same direction along…
One of the objects I'm working on right now is a huge canvas sheet strung up in the desert as a sun shade (it's probably about a half-acre, triangular). The top corner is going to be up away from the player, but the lower edge will be close enough that I'd like to include some kind of depiction of stitching or finishing…
Kia ora I brought into this a long while back and as a hobbyist I did not need, require or afford to keep a $24, $25 dollar NZ (depending on exchange rate and tax's) sub running so I flagged it because I could not use what I had brought in the studio at all, could not even login. I come back only to find nothings changed.…
Great idea and work so far! I think restricting movement to only the player character in view might become frustrating in cases where you want to do something simple like moving to a location without needing to first ensure both bots can see the destination and eachother during transit. I would keep the current control…
Great work on production and stylization. I really appreciate the craftmanship. My biggest issue with the render is the lighting. Specifically the value focal points is falling off the page. It's ok to have the breasts be the focal point but then you need to frame to that focal point. And it's impossible to give the image…
hey copypastepixel can you have a look at this code? - I think I have it working so far except it can't find at them moment the RoadKill URL even though the URL is correct on my computer. The problem orginates from:fn killroad_exportObj obj= ( select #(obj); exportFile OBJFilePath #noPrompt selectedOnly:true; commandstring…
I am rigging a rather elaborate cigarette for an university project but I have to come a point where I really have no idea how to continue: the cigarette consists of an outer shell and an ash-core. when the cigarette burns down the core automatically bends down via a lattice and some driven keys. the next step would be to…
You can still skip the Nvidia experience still I think. I thought they were deprecating the control panel and leaving it to the OS - maybe not, I leave that stuff well alone Anyway, if you're that bothered about privacy windows is a dead end. A good middle ground is to move your day-day computer usage to linux(not Ubuntu…
I'd highly recommend that you read those linked resources I had posted then likewise test iterations of your particular object, therefore putting into practice the 'How and Why' behind the fundamental reasoning described by @FrankPolygon Now for the highlighted areas above, they're intersecting control or support loops and…
I'd like to start by saying I'm a programmer and not an artist, so my knowledge of 3D software is quite limited, plus most of it pertains to Blender and not 3DS Max. Ok, so I came across an article by EA/DICE on Approximating Translucency for a Fast, Cheap and Convincing Subsurface Scattering Look. Somewhere in the…
