maya python - read from text file, iterate through lines per keyframe and display to screen
Here's a script that will read through a text file, use line breaks as a delimiter, and show each line associated with timeline frame, starting from 0. Useful for synching animations with dialog or notes, which is really hard to do if your text is in a separate app. It's crazy that maya doesn't seem to have any native way… -
Re: Looking to improve this workflow
Boolean is one method. In 2023 that's a Compound object as you probably know, so it's a bit of a one-way trip, no undo once you've initiated it. It's pretty good with watertight meshes. Another would be to set up a modular system of meshes, and model them on a grid so they snap together perfectly. You could have a wall… -
Re: Sketchbook : MoonYeah
Hello there, This is my very first upload on Sketchfab, the main purpose of this upload is mainly personal, when you see the result you might wonder why i’m taking the time to show you something that bad… I know that sometimes we tend to wait for our skill level to get higher before uploading anything, but i’m sort of… -
Re: Converting sRGB to linear color space in Photoshop?
will also add that linearizing sRGB textures in Photoshop will reduce the quality of your textures! It's all around a bad idea. Not necessarily true. Rather, you need absolutely 16bit minimum to have no visible banding and data-loss for linear sRGB. For the OP. It could be worth it to take a linear icc profile(Elle Stone… -
Re: How to view (Highpoly/decimated) models in Virtual Reality.
You can easily do it in Unity with following instructions https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/remote-rendering/quickstarts/render-model Disable the "Remote Rendering" script seen in screenshot so it does not try to load anything from server. Import your stuff to the unity and add them to the scene. Just move your stuff… -
Re: Nausicaa Rifle
Many problems resolved by re-working the UVs. now I have something that looks decent in Unity: I started several threads to diagnose various problems: some confusion about the look of Maya vs xNormal bakes as viewed in Maya vs Unity Bad UVs lead made things look Better in Maya, worse in Unity. Also discsussed here Also a… -
Re: Oculus Rift - virtual reality headset for video games
thanks HeadClot will do!

As far as i can tell from reading up you can still use your dk1 but its probably… -
Re: Lightmaps: tech pros and cons
This is a great thread, lots of stuff I didn't know. commander_keen would you mind explaining the math and/or process behind the lightmap modulation? I'm currently coding my own pixel shaders in Unity for the Sidescroller challenge going on right now and I'd like to be able to do more than just multiply my lightmap on top… -
Re: FBX size
.obj or .fbx doesn't matter - it's the same mesh data inside of Unity regardless of the format Unity gets the data from. But ensure you're only importing just the information you need in the mesh import settings. Disable animation import if you don't need it, enable mesh compression, disable normals/tangents/uv2 if you're… -
Re: My game asset creation learnings
In Unity, light baking is the way to go. Some ideas here. http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php?title=Terrain_tutorial For the roads, take a look at how they did these. How was the paint on the roads in this pack done? They used Strumpy of course. :) If you want to push Unity to make pretty things, you really need to make…
