Looking good Ben ! I hope you continue w/ extending that large pipe though out the scene. One thing thats bugging me is the walls. I like the back wall, its the one on the left side that could use some improvements. I feel something like this could work a bit better, and still have your original idea of windows and metal…
Hi! This is my first post, so apologies if it is not formatted ideally. TLDR; I need help finding a method to rig a character's shawl/cape that follows their arms beyond basic skinning. Any suggestions, tips or explanations on a driven joint-based shawl set up would be very appreciated! I cannot use nCloth or nHair…
post exampls (screenshots,- closeups) of what you mean in particular. You can also save as PNG which allows you to save as 24bit (3x 8bit RGB channel) without quality loss while still compressing to some extend.

And unlike Modo indie, you will get the full experience…
Some people over at the official UDK forums are staying away from the FBX exporter for animations because it doesn't support exporting several animations at once, at least it doesn't in Maya. I had this old, horrendous, MEL script lying around for exporting several animations from the timeline, with ActorX, and have…
Hi Techy I also grabbed this shader a while back when trying my hand at Cg, and I actually emailed the fur shader author about the effect and its max portability. Here is some info : ............ 1. I have the whole toolkit installed : toolkit, browser, CGfx viewer, Max Plugin and DX90c. I can browse all the CG shaders in…
