is it possible to load revers a normal in ....
Inside mudbox or 3dsmax? For example lets say I make a normal map with a external tool from a texture , then I would like to reqork or refine the normal bumps on the model loading the same map in the overwritten tools is that possible? What I want to do is ... I have a rock , I have a texture seamless on it , I can make a… -
uv s and normal maps
I modeled some trousers and normal mapped them and they work fine. But then I copied my trouser normal map in to my main uv layout which includes the rest of the body, then pasted my original trouser normal map in to this layout but rotated it 90 degrees. My question is , does rotating a normal map affect the way it works… -
Triangulate when baking normals?
This may be a silly question...If i build a lowpoly mesh in quads, should i triangulate the mesh before i bake the normals? I ask this because ive baked my normals for my lowpoly as quads, it looks great on the quad version, but if i triangulate the mesh the normal map starts creating small distortions along the newly… -
Problem with sizing/editing normal maps
Okay so I'm trying to render out some 4096x4096 normal maps with the intention of downsizing them to 2048 or less, but any form of editing or just resizing will break how it displays in 3ds max. I did research this a bit and found that I needed to re-normalize the map using nvidia's normal map filter plugin for photoshop.… -
Normal maps inverted when rendered
I have used 3ds max for a long time but have just started learning how to create normal maps. I seem to keep hitting problems and one of those problems is that sometimes the normal maps render inverted so when viewing the applied normal map on the model it appears as if it has had its normals inverted. Any clues to what I… -
[Maya 2018] Re-generating vertex & poly normals?
I finally figured out what was wrong with my mesh, when exporting it as FBX and punting it into UE4. I'm so close, but have hit a snag. The normals are screwed for the top half of the head mesh, where its split and the vertices are doubled. Or at least, I assume so, since the issue with the mesh in game looks just like an… -
Normal Weirdness
Hello Polycount, I'm having a bit of a problem baking some normal maps out of Topogun that I'm hoping someone can help me with. The normals seem to have some sort of extreme red blue....weirdness that is making really apparent seams when applied to the texture. I've attached the normals straight from Topogun, Marmoset… -
Re: 3ds max vs Xnormal bakes differences
Once you get all of the parts of a material working you hardly notice, but I agree on a micro level max starts to fall apart, still for a lot of jobs it works just fine so a lot of people will use it, mostly out of convience, jumping back and forth between 2 apps is a pain, that is if max worked right. The problems for me… -
Re: HELP! xNormal Hates Me! [Solved]
YES!!! We're in business! After trying that solution, I kept getting this strange result: The seams were super sharp, but the majority of the map looked just the way I wanted it to. It took me around 4 hours of tinkering, and then I re-read this thread to see if I had missed a step. I realized I hadn't tried flipping the… -
Re: 3dsmax - Detaching keeping normals?
It's pretty easy. * Just add an Edit Normal Modifier. * Select all normals and click Make Explicit * Go under the Edit Normal mod and detach as needed. * The normals will appear to break, but they will be saved when you go back up to the Edit Normal modifier.
