Re: Sketchbook: birb
I'm sorry Mr. Monster but I don't feel like wrestling with your thousand wrinkles just yet. Maybe later, for the sake of completion. I do feel like making studies though, and that's what I did this weekend. I finally caught up with the new season of His Dark Materials. When I read the books as a kid I didn't care about… -
Re: Passes in max like in Softimage
Hey, thanks for all the replies. r_fletch_r That passmanager plugin looks like the type of thing I'm use to using however if i can find out how to do it in the app then I'll go for that over a plugin. saying that tho, i will download that and have alook too! @ sprunghunt Yeah that seems like a cool idea, i did look at the… -
Re: Rendering teaser trailers, cinematics etc
Yup blur use mentalray, I think Tigar Hare use Vray, some use PRman. personally id stick with MR as its built into all the major apps. (all of them are great tho) If your raytracing DOF and motion blur pretty much act as a multiplier for your render times so if you can, I'd research doing these in post. That said Mental… -
A very significant and hectic change
> Nearly two weeks ago, my parents and I went through the process of moving to a new house in south Jersey, about a 90 minute drive south from our old place. Over the month prior to the move, we would pack things into boxes and wrap things in plastic, and the house would gradually empty as more cardboard boxes would be… -
Re: The Lost Village: Wita - Artists and Coders needed!
Hi Mr. Nutter: Some days ago I wrote you an e-mail showing my interest in making part of your project as a 3d modeler. As I think you maybe haven't yet been notified, I feel free of leaving this message here today. You can please DM me back or read my previous e-mail if you wish. I'll be around, looking forward to your… -
Re: Why you should NOT trust 3ds Max's viewport normal-map display!
Humm I'm not so sure about this, but then again I mostly use Unreal/UDK which if I remember correctly falls in line with the max default. There might be some internal settings that allow for both but I think default is the same as 3dsmax. I believe Unity is the same way? To that effect, its like stuffing a sqaure peg in a… -
Friday's Forum Recap
Hazardous Materials Lucas "doc_rob" Hardi has made this! His thread is here! Not content with putting it in the WAYWO Thread, he also made a separate thread for it, and was even thoughtful enough to create a banner image for the top of the site! A cunning ploy, but I reckon he needs to do a bit more texture work on the… -
Re: Maya Bake Vertex Color, One Color Per Polygon
Ow, okay ! Thank you for the clarification. MR bake to vertex settings are correct, but baking your texture into a vertexColorSet, through MR Light&Color mode will work better with a Surface Shader. The surface shader totally ignoring the lighting, you'll get the "color" only, not the "light & color". Now, the transfer… -
Re: Seek Professional Opinion for Environment Artist Career Decision
I'm happy to report that my son has decided to take the advice provided by the members of the forum. He will be taking two online workshops this summer. He decided to attend a local university part time this fall to take art classes. He is also going to work part time while going to school. We really appreciate the… -
Re: Padding trouble... (3d max)
Welcome to dysfunctional relationship between RTT and MentalRay... Try adding only one thing to the output in RTT, right now it looks like you have two things, try doing it with only one thing and see what you get. For me mental ray screws up the padding anytime I add more than one thing to the output. AO only, works fine.…
