Hi polycoount, Last week was hard in job but it's sunday, time to try some fluid tests. During the week, i was looking for a fluid solution which permit to me an export in a mesh scluptable. A friend showed me blender with meta ball system, he showed me how it works to be efficient, after some try on the interface and…
hehe - yes, there quite nice tools ind things in max youll miss in maya. You can improve alot with some plugins. Also keep in mind, maya interface was originally made by programmers - maybe that explains alot :P Learning the opposite - what i like in max is that there tons of videos tutorials out there - when i started…
It's a known pain in the a... with Substance designer. The programm is very prone to any inconsistence within nodes with absolutly zero indication. Anything you forget to set right somewhere 10 levels deep. Most probably it's bitmap imputs you forget to set relartive to parent at some transform node in the process. SD is a…
I'm really excited for this script. I've been atom smashing some modular kit pieces together using Joel Burgess's & Tor Frick's lessons, combined with my own nutty experiences since last October, and I've whiteboxed a ton of pieces to use with a script just like this. I've been making these things in my free time like,…
@monster Thank you yet again Juan. Do you know how can I see in the MaxScript Help docs all functions under Ribbon Modeling? I actually spent a good while searching there, because since our last talk yesterday now I knew to look there before giving up, but no keywords I used gave me anything useful. At most, the only thing…
You can have an instance of the document so that one window can be zoomed (2d) in and the other out, but otherwise they're pretty identical to each other so I don't know of any way to isolate a tool in one but not the other. That can be found under Preferences: Interface: Show Alt Doc View). I'll keep trying out a few…
@McGreed I also have trouble with that. Using folder structures gets very complex and many references can go in different locations. I looked up some ways to create tags, like collections in Adobe Lightroom (clumsy work to tag whole folders and create collections) or various software (hard to search, bad interfaces) but…
I too have a problem accepting every American's responsibility to separate work from play. When work was hurting my life, I became my own boss, because it was the only answer I had. I'm not the genius life coach or anything, and I DO feel for these people, but someone should have told them they have a choice - because they…
I am aware that most people would rather have brain surgery than have their interface rearranged or re-colored, I am one of those people, and it's probably one of the reasons i like bright themes better. But as I've stated before, it's just a personal preference not one to ridicule the current layout. Glad to see most of…
Cool thread, poop! I think most people are aware of the shaders that I've written (since they've been there for awhile) - but here's the link anyway: http://www.bencloward.com/resources_shaders.shtml And of course there's ShaderFX which allows you to create pretty much any shader you want using a simple node-based…
