Re: So what are you working on?
Fonfa: I didnt really know anything about Vertex Colors ether when Dur23 mentioned it. I just opened up the Max help under Vertex Paint and it giving the illusion of shading on your model based on a color and opacity linked to a vertex. -
Re: Released: Material Blending Shaders for Marmoset Toolbag 3
Cool can you post your solution for other people to see? Vertex color is supported, simply paint Red and Green vertices in Maya and export the mesh via FBX. On the shader enable Vertex Color and you should see the the blends being influenced by vertex color. -
Re: Problems getting models that have face-weighted normals into Unity
As I understand it, if Unity recieves an FBX file with smoothing group information in it, it'll recalculate the vertex normals - even if the mesh is already supplied with vertex normals. So you in your FBX settings you need to: Disable "Smoothing Groups". Enable "Split per-vertex Normals". -
Re: Xnormal seams...
I'm not sur if this will work but if you haven't done this give it a go: Select the mesh and soften the normals for it(Normals>SoftenEdge), rebake. If that fixed it the vertex normals running along the loops that you cut the uv's where the seam is are not aligned. Softening the normals aligns the vertex normals of each… -
Re: Total Max Noob Questions
this little tutorial should help for the tga alpha http://www.cglearn.com/tutorials/max3/13_mapping_coords_still_life_part_3.html not sure about displaying vertex alpha, not even sure if you can. To display vertex colours, you have to go the display rollout and check vertex colours and shaded if needed -
Re: Post one thing your favorite 3d app does well.
MAX: Vertex snapping. Just enabling 3d snap by hitting "S", and dragging a sub-object selection based on a vertex of my own choosing to quickly align it to any other vertex in the scene kicks ass. This is where I muster extreme restraint and avoid comparisons to Maya. -
Re: Baking issue on character model
Hi! By overlap, I meant one part (for example jacket) having UVs overlap with itself due to the generative modifiers (mirror, solidify) - not UVs of different character-parts overlapping (jacket and pants for example). Here is a quick walkthrough how I checked with the jacket: 1 - UV Sync Selection is enabled in UV editor,… -
Inconsistency in UV and changing topology
Hi. I need to change my character topology but by creating some additional vertexes, welding or moving them, my texture will be squash or stretched. I know it's normal! :\ and I know it's because of when I change a vertex, its equivalent vertex in UV will not change. So is there any way to inhibit this inconsistency? or… -
Re: UE4 FBX Importer
Yeah, it's not finding the polygons that each vertex should get it's tangent vectors from. So it's instead creating tangents at each vertex for each polygon, target than a normalised sum of all the polygons of the vertex. Unfortunately, I can't use the "fix" because MODO doesn't export tangents and binormals :/ -
Re: When we say multiple material id on a single model, what do we mean?
Some older file formats will force the models to be split on material seams. .3ds for example. Because the format itself can only store 1 material per vertex (1 vertex normal per vertex, 1 UV coordinate per, etc.) This might be what you ran into.
