Re: RGCA - All 3 Categories - Bleetz
Reply by animagical · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Reallusion Game Character Animation ContestI think I may have a solution. The lines you see are most likely interference between the Opacity channel of the trees (which are props I assume) and the depth-of-field setting of the camera. Try this: Select the tree and then in the Modify panel, select the texture settings. Look for a setting called "Alpha Threshold".… -
Re: Silo 2 top tip.
Spiky geo is the result of bad topology, usually. I'm not questioning your skills, but Silo can make it a bit too easy to make non-manifold, lamina or other dodgy bits without noticing, especially if you use tweak along with extruding edges. The new beta versions are a lot better than 1.42 for this stuff, but it can still… -
Re: Maya Randomly screwing up-Deleting Mesh, Crashing
Hey, yea, I'd love to know all I could about what's been causing this. Other than my lack of organization. :S In that vein... I just thought of something that could maybe cause it? I use the MJ Poly tools pluggin for Maya, mostly just so that I can use the connect too. (As well as select ring and select loop). Could that… -
Re: When to Float.
The scatterer and randomizer tools let you paint instanced geometry that aligns to a surface normal. If you've got an edge-loop/ring that runs around where you want your rivets, you can select it, convert the selection to a shape(spline), and use the spacing tool to instance your rivets around the new spline. It gets the… -
Re: Martinez_Macro_MirrorWeights for MAX 6?
Some tips for working with the Weight Table: - Change Options to "Show Affected Bones" - Change the lower drop down option from "Show All Vertices" to "Show Selected Vertices" - Select groups of verts to work on at once - Highlight all the verts in the Weight Table by clicking on the first and then dragging down - When… -
Re: Max 2008 Edit UVW Hotkeys
i think you have probably pressed the shortcut for the "Keyboard Shortcut Override Toggle". I cant for the life of me remember what the key bind is for this but you can reactivate it again at the top of the screen. The button is located next to the snap selection toggles like angle snap etc. Looks like a little keyboard… -
Re: Legend of Zelda - Disting's Take
you're missing some dust and grime in the crevices, seams, and creases on the front. In the areas where blue meets metal, you could kill some specular and put some dirt in there to really pop and liven it up some. A great way to do this would be to use a high detailed height map, and only sample the darks. Select those… -
Re: Rendering normal map information to lightmaps
To reduce drawcalls, you can select groups of objects that are nearby and bake them to specific lightmap by hand using BakeSelected. In previous versions it would require you to first create large enough lightmap array, lock it and then selectively bake.. I think in latest versions this was addressed. This way you can save… -
Re: SOLVED: Photoshop error (0x80042260) dDo
I haven't read through the entire thread, so Im not sure if this potential solution has already been posted, but I just fixed my "General Photoshop Error". Turns out I had quick mask enabled on my document, and this is bad. I didn't realize I had quick mask enabled because I had nothing selected, so there was no red quick… -
Re: Baking probs
Yeah I did check the output file, it looks just as screwed up. Good one on those select features, haven't used them before, I'll keep them in mind. Select inverted faces yielded some results. I'm entirely sure how to fix it though, I tried flipping those faces, but that doesn't make it any better. When I look at it with…
