Re: How do I make my work stereoscopic?
I don't see the map in either of those. Come to think of a very hardware heavy way to fake stereoscopy is to build a setup for your entities, where the original position of the entity is the pivot point and the engine automatically adds the same geometry on a hard-set radius. The Materials get Color-Overlayed and the… -

Re: Dungeon Door WIP
Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback! I still haven't had a chance to make the spec map. I spent this morning trying to redo the normal map to optimize the mesh and fighting with the AO map. The horizontal beam on the door has some AO that was rendered in max, the rest of the AO was made from the normal map. Ignore the… -
Re: Unwrapping a bit more complex cylindrical shape (issue with vertical faces)
Splitting and straightening the UV islands to increase the overall texture density makes sense in theory but in practice it's a bit more complicated than that since there's multiple factors to consider. In the overall scheme of things a single road wheel is a very small part of a tank and it's unlikely that every part of… -
Re: Rounded corners filter in Substance Painter

What are the… -

MaxScript Rollout error with Bake to Texture
My buddy Aaron has this copy of MAX 5.1. He's been trying to use Render to Texture, but keeps getting this weird MAXScript error when he chooses it from the menu. This is the default installation. I got him to try Chuggnut's customized Bakersfield script, and damned if it didn't to the same thing. MAXScript error on…
