Emulating soft edges on hard-edge models? (Possible?)
Hello :) I swear I've worked with an engine that has this capability in the past and I am hoping you folks can help me find out the name of this technique, so I can read up on it. Have you ever seen or worked with tech that could control edge softness right in the engine? So if I have a hard edge in Max on export (each… -
Re: do you soften or harden beveled edges on hard surfaces?
You need to split UV edge when you split vertex normals along an edge (i.e make the edge "hard" or in 3d max terms set different smooth group in adjacent faces. For a videocard it's no difference would you just split the geometry ) Beveled edge on the other hand allows you to keep smooth shading across it. So unified… -
Re: Getting the "next" ring/loop edge in 3ds Max Maxscript
This might be horribly inefficient, just thinking off the top of my head here, but you could do something like: * Get polys from a single current edge (e.g. in ring) * For each poly, get edges - if it has 4 edges, then it's a quad * For each quad, get edges, and get verts from each edge * Check the edges from the quad and… -
Re: [3DS Max] Edges, overlapping faces, multiple edges and extrusion, x-view
The problem is that you're using the extrude edge tool with zero width/height. This means there are 3 edges sitting on top of eachother after the operation. The original edge and the 2 extruded edges. And because the edges are all co-planar they can be hidden by the shading depending on where they are moved. This is also… -
Display Hard Edges in 3d Studio Max / Toggle Hard Edges
Hey guys, I`m wondering if there is a quick and easy way to display hard edges on my mesh in 3d Studio Max. Here is a screenshot from Maya to explain what I`m looking for. Top object, hard edges in purple. Bottom object, all edges. I`m looking for a way to toggle between these two modes in max or just a way to display the… -
Polygons' edges are seen after baking
Hello everyone! I cannot figure out the issue with polygon edges being seen on the low poly after baking. Here's the high poly and low poly models (Blender). These are the seams and sharp edges that I have now: Once the baking is done (Substance Painter) and a simple layer (just a color or a variation with roughness… -
Re: Edge of Twilight: The game I worked on for 3 years!
If I ever make an indy game, I will name it "The edge of the edge's edge II: The edgy edge" No matter what the game is or about, and even if it isn't a sequel. -
Way to get nice beveled edges without using edge loops?
hey guys. I know there’s some plugins that do this, basically I’m looking for a way to get nice rounded/beveled edges without using a bunch of edge loops and sub-dividing. Sometimes the model is a bit complex and putting all those edge loops around just to get smooth edges is a major time consumer. I use Maya if that’s any… -
UE4.27 - VR - Forward Renderer - Custom Edge Detection PostProcess
Hey hey everyone! =) I’m running into a pretty specific issue, and I’m wondering if anyone here has faced something similar or might have an idea on how to fix it. Setup- Engine version: custom Unreal Engine 4.27 branch based on the Oculus branch- Project: VR (PC, not mobile)- Renderer: Forward Renderer- Antialiasing: MSAA… -
Inserting a vertex in an edge where it interects with another edge/face
Is there any way to insert a vertex in an edge where the edge intersects with another face/edge in the same object? Thanks
