Re: LOW-POLY ART
@YellowSub Thank you. You should check out Recap by Autodesk. It is a program that creates models from images. I then had to retopo the mesh create UVs and in Mudbox I transferred the texture from the recap mesh to my newly created mesh. I had to fix the texture in Photoshop to remove some of the lighting so that it is lit… -
Re: handplane - new tangent space tool in public beta
Your lowpoly model's smoothing information isn't being read. Modo's fbx files are a third party implementation and it looks like they don't store smoothing information the same way as the autodesk products (max, maya, softimage). Do you have access to one of the autodesk tools? It could also just be the export settings. I… -
Re: looking for this tool in maya
I actually just went and dig some and found this file: C: \Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2009\scripts\others\performTextureLatticeOptions.mel in it, I was able to change the boundaries for the lattice columns and rows and set the minimum to 2 instead of 3. Before: After: After restarting Maya I was able to create a 2x2… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag - MASTER THREAD
Hi- can anyone suggest a quick workaround for me pls? I have rendered some lovely stills in Marmoset but want to do a turntable animation- however, I have maya 2009 which the exporter cannot work with (thanks autodesk!). It would seem that earlier versions of Maya are no longer available online either (thanks again… -
Re: modo 2 UDK
Autodesk FBX 2006.11 format worked the last time I tried it, no vetex colors though. The "regular" Autodesk FBX file format is totally borked with UDK, don't even bother with that one. Collada DAE will work ok too, though it has scale issues and the vertex colors don't transfer over properly either. This seems to be an… -
Re: 3ds Max 2016
I was not talking about the 1 year "grace" period one usually got after the subscription was dropped ( it used to be possible to renew AFTER you let subscription drop, by paying a "late fee" ). I talked about the regular 1 year subscription: if you renew towards the end but STILL WHILE you are on subscription. I can't… -
Re: zBrush or Mudbox?
Wow, this thread really came back from the dead. Mudbox is great for: Texturing & UI I wouldnt use it as a primary sculpting tool. Even Blender does a better job at sculpting now and can reach higher polycounts as well (and its free). Then you have to deal with autodesk... so far zbrush updates are free and substantial.… -
Re: fbx export in max, does not save my settings
I have done both. By "set admin rights" i mean, i am running as administrator :) And i did save out a preset, still the fbx exporter only shows two options inthe dropdown menu 1. Autodesk Media @ Entertainment 2. Autodesk Mudbox The preset i made: "mypreset", does not show in the custom preset drop down list. Well after… -
Re: 3dsmax favors local-space normal maps?
Texporter is free and has been around for a long time, plus there's Grant Adam's fine PSDPathExporter. I'm not a marketing guy for Autodesk, but third-party devs have been a major part of the appeal of 3ds since the DOS days. Savvy way to get more tools, if you ask me. If functionality isn't up to par, Autodesk attempts to… -
