Re: [3ds max] mapping shortcuts to actions that aren't exposed by the MAXScript listener or CUI?
Seems there are two actions in the CUI dialog for this , but both toggle the button on the modifier rollout only, not the one in the actual Edit UV dialog ( im pretty sure this is a bug ). Those two actions are "Geom. Element Select mode" and "TV element mode". I think the second one should really toggle the button in the… -
Re: Questions about Materials/Shaders and Textures
Quoted from UE forums: "On meshes and material IDs, let me present a hypothetical situation to try to explain the situation more clearly. Let's say you have a mesh that has three materials: wood, chrome, and leather. Now let's say you place 100 of these meshes in your level. Ignoring other passes (shadow, depth only), this… -
Re: new models for student game
the monitor looks bad,- even worse the dumbster in terms of design. The monitor has some askew shapes and some shapes placed with eye- measurement- its so random. The big screws are way outdated - try some more modern bolts with trigon, pentagonal or hexadecimal edges. From the right side the montior looks completely… -
Did You Know? Tips & Tricks in 3DS Max
A co-worker of mine enlightened me about tagging non-bone objects as bones via bone tools in 3DS Max, which got me thinking about other cool tricks in Max that people may not know. Off the top of my head, here's one I've picked up: -Being able to hide elements of your Editable Poly mesh while skinning: really comes in… -
(WIP) The Psychic Ambassadors

The project is envisioned as a series, with iconic characters such as Proyector, Maquinito, and the artist Dafome. This narrative has been evolving over many years, and… -
Re: Sketchbook: Willow Paquette
Continuing to block things out, I have put in several props and decorative elements, added some more modeled detail to several architectural elements, and have further pushed lighting and added more temp materials. Things I am liking: * The spread of color in an otherwise monochrome space feels correct. I am going for a… -
Re: baking.. no not cookies.
Place the low poly elements and their corresponding high poly elements next to each other, but away from other parts of the mesh. IE, the grate from the high and the plane from the low poly should be moved up a bit and away from the 'base'. The two cylinders can be moved out of the groove. You want the exploded elements to… -
Re: The Honest Feedback Thread
Whoa both shotgun and pior! Thanks guys, a ton of great points! I was originally trying to go for some sort of rockwell/leyendecker thing, and i think that's what i still want to go for. I think i need to sit back and focus on my angles and rendering to even try to approach that. This is definitely meant to come off as a… -
Re: I haz a rhythm game
Well, not surprisingly Amplitude is one of Jammer's main influences, so there are definately similarities. The basic gameplay is a bit different. In amplitude you play a musical element for 2 bars, and if you do it right, it plays by itself for a while, and then stops. In Jammer, you play a musical element until you build… -
Re: Bakeing hell
Hi! Doing a bake with the attached files in Painter, didn't reveal the issues you show in your original post. The file contains just a single door element. Maybe the issue you presented is caused by the way UVs are stacked and due to the bake settings? Did you bake with your test file as well and reproduce the issue? That…
