Re: Blender for Game Art
What other artists said is true and this is my little game experience I'm getting in these days. I'm using Blender since 2.49 and I only can say that they improving it more than other 3d applications. I'm working to a game project, waiting to go on with vfx career, and Blender does its job perfectly for our indie project,… -
[3DSMAX] Slow Material slate editor (5-10+ seconds of unresponsive max)
With each change to a material there is a significant pause sometimes 10 sec. Even changing a color is slow. The scene has many objects and hiding them improves performance a bit, but it still lags a lot. There are no real complex shaders and no textures in the scene. I use Vray. In an empty /simple scene there are no… -
Vignettes for Work (Starting from Zero)
My day job is gravestones, it's not exactly a technically forward facing industry. For the longest time our solution to big columbaria projects has been to hand render them into a photo, which is a laborious process. (Example Columbarium) These are not complex objects and I was able to skip some of the steps by building a… -
Maya - make live toggle script.
Donno how useful this is to anyone else, but I really like being able to quickly toggle "live" on and off w/o having to click through lists to re-enable the previous object. Its a very simple script, might be an easier way of doing it... etc.. Basically you run the first script make the select object live. After that,… -
Pin constraints on a rigged character
Dear Polycount, I have a simple rigged model that I would like to attach some simple cubes to with pin constraints however Maya wont seem to allow me to do this.

Why is topology still such a conundrum?!
Every time I am modeling a curved surface in 3Ds Max and I need to put some sharp corners on it I wonder why I have to worry about the smoothness of the curved surface after applying support loops!? Just out of curiosity and of course the need to know if there are other software that have solved this topology problem I… -
3ds max: XRefs for character animation
I've been working in both Max and Maya for years, and I try to be objective about both software packages. But one of the things that keeps bugging me about 3ds max is - working with references. No matter what I do, it feels like Maya's Referencing system is much more stable and reliable and more useful, compared to 3ds… -
Most useful keyboard shortcuts for 3ds max
Figured it might be nice to share which hotkeys you use most often. I'm still figuring out which commands to make shortcuts for, which is partly why I made this thread. I definitely want to improve my selection shortcuts. I'll try to avoid the more common ones. One thing I'm trying to figure out is the command for exiting…
