Re: UV transfer disaster, any solution?
Thanks guys. Yep the vert order got changed through the process of attatching/detatching when baking. I tried Morphix but I get a 'vert out of range' error. I added a few more hints but no luck. Vig, how do you mean 'skin wrap'? It sounds like a good plan but I'm not 100% sure what you mean. Yep the vertex weighting will… -
Zbrush Normal Issue
So I'm working on my first attempt at sculpting a high poly in Zbrush and have come across a major issue. When I started I didn't unwrap my mesh first because I didn't know this was the best way to do things. My issue lies in the fact that after I have done a bunch of sculpting I have exported my lowest res mesh as an obj.… -
Workflow for multi UVd objects to one?
Need some guidance and assistance. I created a 9 sub-tool mesh in Zbrush that I exported each sub-tool and UVd individually in 3D-Coat. I produced my maps and then to found out in SP I can only bring in one mesh at a time. I would prefer to have the entire mesh in SP. I did some reading and research and I think what I need… -
Re: Smak 1.6 amboc/normal baker
Thanks, guys. You can't take things personally in this business, especially if you want honest feedback :) I've heard some requests for .max, how important is that to you? 80 megabyte files are definitely much larger than anything I've put through SMAK so far, the biggest I've put through it is 1-2 megabytes. I didn't know… -
Issue with UVs resetting in 3dsmax
Excuse me - I simply laugh to avoid exploding because I'm fed up with technical issues. There's always SOMETHING is'nt there? Nothing ever runs SMOOTH does it!!! Anyways - NOW it's about a workflow I use that ALL OF THE SUDDEN dont work, hahahahaha... Usually I take my models from 3dsMax into Roadkill to lay out basic UVs… -
Re: Is there a efficient way to auto Unwrap Uvs by material ID?
I asked chat GPT to make me script using same idea. Packing matID as UDIMs pattern 4x4 first then normalize for selected objects . Took it seconds and it understand the idea quicker than a typical programmer adding extra helpful features I have not even thought about like working with 12 materials and doing 4x3 pattern .… -

Re: Introducing Handplane Baker
Some OBJ files are not loading the correct smoothing info in the baker right now. Can you send me that OBJ file? In one case, it was being triggered by an OBJ with a bunch of ngons. Ngons or not, it should still load the correct smoothing- if the mesh is from mudbox I am guessing there aren't ngons. The another… -
Re: [MaxScript] start pickbutton picking by code not button click?
Another solution, no timers and no "dirty" UIAccessor. I used a checkbutton instead of a pickbutton, "outsource" the picking to a function. This way you can call the function from anywhere. I added another button to demonstrate. "mybutton" is optional parameter, so you can imitate the pressed button state. The filter… -
