Re: Adding to already made model, share some knowledge please
its realy simple if you have zbrush: add wings or other stuff to youre model -> go to zbrush -> subdivide without smoothing enough to feel comfortable with painting qualitie -> project texture as polypaint - add polypaint -> back to 3d soft you are using -> fix/edit uv's -> back to zbrush -> project polypaint to new edited… -
Re: 3d studio help needed from a Pro w/ Symmetry tool (noob question)
Editing the model after its been rigged is a dicey operation. But you can use the skinwrap modifier, target the original mesh (hopefully the verts are still roughly in the same place) and then convert to skin. Unlike load save skin weights, skin wrap uses the verts positions in world space instead of relying on the vertex… -
Re: Reddit AmA for workshop artists
well, it certainly changed since I added mine, and I can no longer edit. I see a couple variations now, and have no clue what's right lol. your suggestion is **name /u/name** the one when I added mine was [**name**](/u/name) and there's also **[name](/u/name)** I hope these all work :( edit: oh goddamnit just saw Anuxi's… -
Re: UDK Prefabs vs Unity Prefabs
Unity doesn't batch prefabs together. Each new prefab will add it's own draw call(s). Unless you've set them up to be batched using static or dynamic batching. The mesh(es) will be instances of the same source mesh (called the sharedMesh in Unity) - and the materials are instances of the same material (called the… -
Re: Dota 2 workshop unnoficial monthly competition - May

Re: Face weighted normals
I don't fully understand it I'm afraid - what's the 'dirty trick' here, relying on edited face normals or relying on the ol' "if it looks good.." saying? And what do the former have to do with UV's? That said, I personally don't hand-edit normals on normal-mapped assets either, it's a hassle and I'm afraid of losing the… -
Re: how manage mirrored normal maps
Ah, yeah ofc, the baking from the 3d object is correct. You only need to edit the 2d details. I think you should generate that detail map in crazybump, edit it in photoshop, then combine in crazybump. Yes, the issue is with the 2d images. If you had modelized those parts in 3d, you wouldn't have any problem, or atleast,… -
Re: crazy max!
Weird! So I seem to have found out how to fix it, thanks to Rhinokey. During this problem, if you close the window out and click on the modifier in the stack, it'll bring up the edit window again. Doing this, you still have that weird menu problem. BUT if you close it and hit the Edit button before clicking anywhere else… -
Re: Maya shader question
I thought the Artist Edition was the free download one? And it does not allow you to export to the formats you mention. You need the Standard Edition for that. http://www.mentalimages.com/products/mental-mill/artist-edition.html So my conclusion if I'm not mistaking, I have to cough up 500$ to get the shaders in Maya. :(… -
Re: Top Gear: Season 11
That race was really good, I'm really excited to see the GT-R go around the track, saying how supposedly wicked fast it is. Only thing this season compared to the previous ones is the camera and editing, I feel like the editing is being way overdone this season. It's probably not the case saying how every other season is…
