Creating LoDs
My biggest question is how does the lowest detail object have the same UVs as the main object? Do you lay out UVs on the original and then duplicate the object and remove edge loops etc to create the next LOD and so on? This may be pretty simple but I just have no experience in creating them. -
[Maya] Baking the mia_roundcorners effect
Hello ! This is my first creating a thread in this forum section,long-time lurking i was :D I have started working with the mia_roundcorners shader in Maya to prototype some quick modeling workflows using it.Everything seems to be working when it comes to creating shapes and applying the shader on them,but things get… -
Re: [WIP] 3D Desert-punk Sci-fi Character
Heya! Great work so far! I really like the concept too. In terms of adhering to it, I see some differences in proportions, but I actually prefer your rendition for 3D. The super skinny legs and small helmet / head are more stylized in the concept art, whereas yours feels more grounded in reality. On the modelling side,… -
Re: Maya Toon outline animation (outline doenst follow keyframe animation)
I just tried it but it doesn't work, when i minipulate the object itself it follows. But when i keyfram the object the outline stays where it is. I have tried the same thing in maya 2014 and apperently it does follow the keyframed object there. -
Re: I always combine meshes in Maya first when I want a shared texture set. Am I doing this right?
Painter splits objects up by material so any exported objects that share a material will be baked to the same texture. There's no need to combine meshes etc. for any of this - you can unwrap multiple objects together in Maya -
Re: Question about ambient occlusion and color.
Yeah AO is not a real world thing. AO is a rendering hack we use because realistic lighting is far too expensive to render in real time. The ideal use for AO is to be used in a shader that multiplies on the ambient light as Farfarer notes. In Toolbag 3, the AO slot multiplies on the ambient (image based lighting) diffuse… -
Re: Unreal Engine Video Guides: All You Need to Know
In this final part of our Chaos Destruction series, we take things up a notch by integrating Niagara! You'll learn how to pass custom collision data from Chaos to Niagara, allowing different fractured objects to trigger unique effects upon breaking. We'll also cover force fields, create a custom shader for realistic dust… -
Re: SUITE 2.0 status update!
Hey, what about few id mats on object? Like I have 3 different tilling textures on my object (for isntance, wood, bricks, concrete). I assume i would export object with seperate meshes (no problem with that), but will 2.0 handle this? -
Re: Sluggish performance in Maya 2018 LT Quad Draw
could you try to export the object as obj and reimport back... i had some corrupted objects in the past and was able to repair them this way... an other trick would be to use an alembic GPU cache as live object.... cache --> GPU cache --> export... -
Re: 3DS Max 2010 Uv mapping bug.
AFAIK, Max displays the Objects Color in the UV Wireframe, to make i easier to distiguish betwenn different Objects when using one Unwrap Modifier for multiple objects (since Max2010 methinks). If changing that doesn't work, ther might be an option in the 'Options' ;)
