Re: SOLVED: NDO Normal map to Hard Surface Height map conversion : crash
Thanks guys! We FINALLY found the cause of this issue (failed to load a curves file needed by the hard-surface conversion function). It has been fixed (yay!) and will be part of the 1.7 release (as well as the preview build to be released today). - Teddy -
Re: UDK Vertex Blending limitation question
5 Vertex Channels (Black, Alpha, Red, Green, Blue) with Black being the base. Maximum number of textures in a material (DX9) is 15, 12 if you check static mesh as it's only function. Maximum number of instructions (DX9) is 512. -
Re: Zbrush HELP!
imo get yourself blender or another polygon modeling software. Zbrush is not an end all solution, especially if you want to create hardsurface things other than that have a look at the extract function combined with zremesher and use polish brushes -
Re: Upgrading my Wacom...

Re: dire need of help with character studio.
Physique and CS are band-aid solutions left over from a time when Max did not have a proper IK solution or a functional skin modifier. Not to say that Physique and CS are bad .. if you like to bake using Betty Crocker. -
Re: Book Recommendations!
