CREASE EDGES FOR SUBDIVISION: THE BLOODY CORNER
Hi guys I have a big question for you today. I was trying to better understand the 3 edge-loops technique for hard surface modelling in 3ds Max when I discovered this kind of corner that in my little experience is not possible to subdivide without having noises on the surface unless another technique is used (nurbs… -
Straight-Edge UV seams
This is one thing i've wondered for a while now. Although i've been unwrapping for years now i still dont figure how various maps like those seen in games like RE5 for instance have dead straight texture seams. I know how to straighten seams using polyboost or textools etc but why would you do this as surely its virtually… -
Preserving edges (Zbrush)
Hello all. I need to know how people acheive that hard mechanical look on there edges when smoothed out for a personal project I'm working on. I know this is a noob question but I just haven't really ever gotten into it alot. I already know there is one method : Chamfering edges. I was watching this tutorial and the guy… -
[3ds Max] Why can't I weld these edges together?
I need to weld together three triangles in a sort of bill-board way. This bill-board will be replicated thousands of times on all sorts of foliage. I've tried welding the vertices one by one. I've tried welding the edges. I've tried collapsing the vertices. I've tried collapsing the edges. None of them work. They either… -
Maya Script request - Select Hard Edges on current object
Hello all, I have been trying to find this through google and have had no luck in getting a working script. I would like a script that does the following: -Enters edge selection mode on the selected object (if it is not already active) -Selects all the hard edges -Any selection constraints are then reset back to normal… -
[Zbrush] Doing a master's study - a question about hard edges
I'm attempting to replicate Michael "Orb" Vicente's skull chair but my hard edge skill is very limited. I've taken the back piece from Maya into Zbrush. I'm not quite sure how I can create that "axe blade" edge silhouette that the original has. I'd like to approach mechanically, that is to utilize a tool to create an… -
Re: Need feedback and advice on texturing scars (with photo of my current attempt)
The upper part of the scar looks pretty good so far. I think it kind of falls apart where it gets wider and the edges get lighter and less well-defined. I guess it also depends a lot on what the purpose of the scar is, in story-telling terms. What is it meant to convey about the character's backstory? Are they a duelist… -
UDK highlighting along the triangled edges, and at weird angles.
I saw this pop up at some point on polycount, but could not dig up the thread. I am getting this strange highlighting on my meshes that is following the triangle edge, and not the proper edge. I am using the July 2012 version of UDK. The mesh was exported out of Maya 2011, with smoothing groups, tangents and binormals, and… -
3DSMAX - Length Tool (copy/paste edge or loop lengths)
I just released a new script for 3DSMax which lets you copy and paste (or unify) the length of selected edges or edge loops. It also lets you get/set the distance between verts or objects. There are a lot of one-off scripts that do some of what it does, but I thought it would be useful to have something a bit more… -
Re: (Solved) Jagged edges and overall low quality normal baking
This age-old image shows an example with highpoly only: A example showing the baked result would only be of limited value, because the only significant difference there comes from the texture resolution, which will vary per asset. You could increase the texture resolution. However, even if that's an option it doesn't make…
