Re: Tiling Stone Texture in Zbrush
Correct me if I am wrong but the main idea that he is showing is this: 1. Instead of laying down your brick/tile pattern on the "destructive" 2.5 canvas you export them using a lower subdiv level to a 3D program where you can use the grid to lay down your patterns. 2. Export back into Zbrush and turn the subdiv. on and do… -
Re: reboot cycles with blue screen
downloading knoppix now I think my university is blocking utorrent because I'm only getting 1 kb down. Started out at like 300 kb and I was pleased but now it's slowed way the heck down. Most likely to get this done over the weekend when I can be on a strong wireless connection. Gonna run home now and savage parts from a… -
Re: School is sucking the life out of me
Man, I WISH I could go back to how my schedule was in school. I was going to school full time, working, and teaching myself the programs required for the field I wanted to get into. I sure seemed busy then... Flash forward 10 years... I have the full time job at Bioware, the almost full time job of heading up these online… -

Re: Game Character Animation in Max
I would say it largely depends on what kind of time you have and what results you're expecting. I'm working on a project right now where I'll be using biped mostly because it's what I know. I don't have time to learn CAT and I'm very comfortable with biped. I prefer it over plain bones because of the tools I use,… -
Re: Why can't I quit you?
You have to do what you love, stability be damned. if you hate getting up and going to work each morning, whats the point of doing it? In 2006 I left the industry for 2.5 yrs, working as a scripter on slot machine games. Why? Because the studio I was at was sinking. Worst time of my life. Leaving the studio I was at for… -
Re: 3DS Max Make Planar to existing Geo
not the best way to do it but... 2 ways of doing it... turn on 2.5 snapping and turn on verts for a snapping option. since you want to match the z axis got to the left view and now you can drag your verts one at a time to the one you want to snap to. you can also insert an edge loop, turn on edge constraint and move that… -
Re: Cutting the Cable Cord?
I tend to stream the vast majority of stuff i watch off of the usual legit routes. I also have access to borrow an unlimited amount of Dvds at work, perks of a the job. (14 day rotating library of about 400-500 dvds) Amazon prime has a few good deals on and it comes with other stuff (if you sub to it in deal times). I'm a… -
Re: zbrush to mudbox covert?
Hey, man. I've just transitioned from mudbox to zbrush. My main reason was increased performance, since I have a pretty weak rig. Where mudbox stutters at 4 mil tris zbrush is flying at 8. Also the whole 2.5 canvas thing is really way more convenient for tiling textures than mudboxs' tiling plane. Other than this I find… -
Re: Software Investment?
Hmm, good idea. I will just get Adobe Photography subscription or whatever the photoshop one is called for $240 a year. Would it be possible to open Maya 2016 files in Maya LT and vise versa? If I wanted to export a mesh that is more than 100K as a .fbx, could I send the file to a friend online who has Maya 2016 and just…
