Re: 3DS Max 2017 reset my modfier stack list
Usually that happens when your windows account is not the admin. Most of the time you need to actually be logged in as the admin for it to have proper access, just logging in with a sub-account that has admin privileges doesn't cut it. It has something to do with where 3dsmax saves preferences and that those folders are… -
Re: How to model a 50s van?
When I'm stuck on getting started with a model, I think it helps to examine models that other people have made, gives me ideas for how to tackle things. An example, searching the web for "sketchfab 50's car lowpoly" https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/low-poly-1950s-car-2045e51f13024c07a6f0ed8a650c7905 Then you can use the… -
Re: artifacts appearing on overlapping parts during baking
Hi! What does the mesh shading of the lowpoly look like? Is it the same on all parts using the same texture? Are the stacked shells oriented in the same direction? I would expect the final shading (normal map applied) to look off for each part that's reusing texture but that has mesh shading that's different than the part… -
Re: Game Jobs: How long to wait before looking again?
I agree with Vig,i say stick with it until you get that first title under your belt. For starters it will give you more work to show,it will give you more leverage in finding your new job and it will show you can stick with a project until your finished. I was in your position at my last/first industry job and i stuck with… -
Re: Need Feedback - Tavern Structure [LoE]
No, I was just thinking they stick out too far to the side. Nobody would actually tile a roof like that, and they stick out far enough that they'd probably just fall off anyway. But if they just stuck out a little, it could be 'sloppy roofing job', or they are starting to fall apart/slip out of place. Breaks up the… -
Re: Modo 601
This. after 8 years of using Modo and also using Max and Maya professionally I prefer Modo hands down. This release really puts everything on the surface and makes this badboy well rounded. The bend and twist deformers have been in modo for quite some time but you haven't been able to stick them in a stack before now. I've… -
Re: Sketchbook: Canden Picard
Hi Canden, a few crits for you: - Like Sectaurs said, do not render on white. It makes it difficult to see what's going on inside the object's silhouette. One common solution is to use a gradient background that goes from around 33% grey at the top to 66% grey at the bottom. If you want a solid color background though,… -
Re: Maya to Max
Ah makes sense Mop, sometimes I just don't think about basic principles and immediatly blame it on max "Why isn't it doing it damnit!" when in reality I am trying to do something stupid. Edit: Alright, can you explain stick to me? So far I have been using weld and cant seem to figure what stick is doing, try to stich the… -
M4 Sniper - First High to Low model...I'm stuck!
Hello everyone I have been lurking this forum for probably a good year at this point and love everything on here. I don't see much hard surface modeling on here, but hopefully you all can still help me. I have been learning Maya and have finally begun my first weapon model. I'm modeling a sniper version of an M4 rifle. I… -
Re: How are you actually handling AI-generated mesh cleanup before engine handoff?
I recently needed to produce 3d mesh details from very old mesh and normal map texture where those details were flat baked, sort of closer lod and chat GPT managed to do it pretty well . It took lots of discussion whats wrong and how to interpret NM . I had to upload small pictures where the normal map is supposed to spawn…
