Re: [3DSMAX] What is the best unit scale to use consistently?
Ok, I was using CM for system units and CM for display units. But when looking at kitbash libraries I was confused about the scaling. 200 generic units for a small wire seems strange. And since Mark Van Haitsma is such a great professional modeler, I thought I might do something wrong. Does working on 200 units have… -
Exploiting 3dsMax Monthly Commercial Subscription?
Hey everyone, I was wondering if people were able to save thousands of dollars and use the 3dsMax monthly license to create commercially useable assets for only a few months, rather than paying ~4k for a permanent license. I currently use blender for all of my game assets, but cryblend currently does not support animations… -
Re: gamma LUT settings 3dsmax
For the time being, I am with Xoliul, handle it in your shader directly so you have exact control what gets gamma correction and what doesn't. I think the "goal" of linear workflow in 3dsMax is the right goal, but too many ways to accidentally de-gamma textures like normal maps resulting in very poor shading (worse then… -
3dsmax snaps help?
Hey people, I'm feeling a bit n00b-ish at the moment because I can't figure something out in Max, and I dunno if it's just me, or if it's because the 3dsmax designers have made a huge oversight (wouldn't be the first time! ) Basically I have a grid snap in perspective view using 3D snap toggle, but it will only snap the… -
[ZBrush] I can't get precise results with displacement maps in 3DSMAX.
I use a medium subdivided mesh (not the lowest subdivision because results are even worse then). In Zbrush I use the multimap exporter with displacement settings: In 3dsmax I use a displacement modifier with these settings: (midpoint 0.5) No Linear Gamma (I know that when I use Linear gamma I should import the displacement… -

3Dsmax: Maya middle mouse button for move/rotate/scale
Hey guys! Lurked on the forum and on the web today to find out if there's a way to do such a thing as move an object on the last used axis in 3dsMax 2013 as the middle mouse button does in Maya. I realize that's probably a kind of a noob'ish question and the thing is probably just a hardcoded feature but wanted to give it… -
Normal Baking Artifacts 3dsmax 2012
Hey guys, first post on the site even though i've been lurking for quite a while. I hate for my first thread to be one of shamelessly pleading for help but i've hit a bit of a brick wall on this one. Below is an asset i'm working on for a Lovecraftian Style seafront environment, i modeled the high poly and reduced it down… -
3dsMaX: How to resize bones and mesh+skin modifier w/out problems
I'm creating characters in 3dsmax, and I didn't realise that I wouldn't be able to re-size the characters once they have been skinned. I need them to be proportional to each other but simply increasing the size on the bones causes the characters to look like a larger Jack Skelington. A Bro Fist for whoever can help me. -
ImageBasedLighting 3dsmax Fx
Orginally Brice made that BRDF shader for Maya as seen in http://boards.polycount.net/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=238350 and http://www.mentalwarp.com/~brice/shader.php after making the max port initially, I broke away from his codebase quite a bit, to make it easier to add/change things, and of course stuff that is more…
