One of my quirrels of working with max vs xsi, is that everytime I need to access and objects say verts, im required to select and "move" down through modifer stacks thats above my editablePoly. If I exit say vertex mode, deselect and reselect object, im again at the top of the stack. Ofcause I could just make a editPoly…
You could simply apply the source photo to a plane, cut in the the needed topology using the Knife tool and leveraging Preserve UVs on/off ("Correct Face Atttributes" in Blender) to match details ; removing the background ; then straightening things as needed. And then of course capturing the result to get the needed…

Well, it's hard to judge the accuracy of that truck without knowing what you're comparing it to. But regarding your other points... The flat matcap basically just shows you model without any shading, without any shadows. It's useful if you just want to check the silhouette of your model without being misled by shading or…
He mentioned Reactor, so he may not have MassFX Physics. Here is a quick hinge tutorial for Reactor: Completed Example File: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2904948/Tutorials/ReactorHinge01.max Create the Hinge:* Parent object b to object a. * Change the pivot on object b so that rotating the Z axis gives the effect you want. *…
Hello! I started learning Plasticity recently and wanted to share some of my thoughts about the software. Maybe this will be interesting for people like me, who have a poly-modeling background and consider giving CAD a go. First of all I was pleasantly surprised how "artist" friendly Plasticity is. The interface is very…
Hello there 1. does 3DS max have a feature where if I push object A into object B, object A wont stab through object B? 2. Is there some sort of setting where if I push Object A into object B their geometry will be merged to make it as if object A was always apart of object B, for example if I manipulate an edge on object…
Hi! It looks like some modifiers were carelessly applied to this mesh before, or it was exported from somewhere, so it has some issues at the moment: - your beveled edge is not only marked as Sharp, it's actually ripped - you can see this in Edit Mode if you try to select and move a vertex there. You'd need to select all…
Aesthetically imo this environment you've created fits within target genre :+1: However being trained to gauge scale simply by eyeballing over many years as a HS modeler so my gaze was immediately drawn to the diagonal staircase which seems slightly disproportionate, compared to most objects in the scene.
I realized I went radio silent on this thread for a while, got busy with other stuff. I want to update that I finished this project a while back, and I was able to achieve most of my objectives. Eventually I created the completely modular character asset with this project, with whole inner body mesh with a set of outfit. I…
