Thanks for the assistance Synaesthesia, Maybe this video will better demonstrate my issue. Do height/displacement maps not actually deform the mesh in Unity? I've tried on both dense/simple meshes. Meaning, what you see in Mixer may never align with what you'd get in Unity? (remains flat in Unity). I also tried removing…
Anyone know if there's a way to get UV animation out of Max and into UE4? I've animated UVs via the 'UVW Map' modifier gizmo, and via offsets in the material itself, but when I import it into UE4 and apply a material the animation doesn't seem to be moving the UVs? I know you can animate UVs directly in the Unreal material…
The body of my character is a single object and I'd like to send it over to Zbrush, but this is what happens instead: The armor and part of the boots disappear at the end of the process. Does anybody have an idea why is that?
Of course, I know the environment art pipeline and everything to do with modularity/asset reuse. I just wonder if I could make the exporting/importing pipeline smoother. If LiveLink is useful not only for animation, then here are the list of changes in Maya that I would love to do instantly see reflected inside Unreal…
I recently downloaded Substance Painter and intended to try it however whenever I try to import the file from 3DS Max, using the bridge plugin, Substance gives me the error "The Selected Project --.spp isn't valid! I have tried creating a box, applying an unwrap modifier and importing that into substance and I get the same…
Hi Polycount! :) I have just modeled some butterflies and am trying to figure out the best way to transfer their basic animation loops into UDK. Would using bones be too overkill for a low-poly butterfly? Should I bake the animation into a vertex animation instead? What option would be the most processor-friendly? Thanks…
Is there any quick way to put a bunch of different solid coloured materials on different elements of a mesh and then bake those to a textue with edge padding? Right now the only way I've found is using the transfer maps low to low tranfer. Works okay but I have to do each element one at a time and then composite the map…
Hi. I'm experiencing some major confusion in trying to install the smdExport script. I've put a copy of the script in maya/2012/prefs/scripts and maya/2012/scripts. I've typed the script name and arguments into the mel script line, but I get the following error: "Error: Cannot find file "paths" for source statement." I…
