Can't really do that within the same modifier. Better to use separate objects. Anyhow, those objects are separate in real life, so your model should do the same. This is worth a read (help file) http://help.autodesk.com/view/3DSMAX/2016/ENU/?guid=GUID-9F0E9AC3-FAE6-46A6-83F3-591084220B12 I used all three methods recently…
Chiming in again. The current conversation in respect too a private area for serious people to coalesce cordoned off from the masses sounds more than a tad elitist however it's ethos is not entirely without merit. If for example lets say a variant or rather a splinter group of experienced contributors, can be anyone…
Thanks guys will have a look at those, not had any luck with power managment etc so far though. My specs are GTX 970, 16GB RAM, i5 4670K, Windows 10 up to date.

He broke down a texture just like yours in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSFKEvH6ZJA#t=465s .

@adam Some thoughts on the 'sticky' OP, I think it could use a splash of color along the footer maybe just a 3px green border at the bottom, so you know it's ended and user posts begin/resume. I'm foreseeing lots of massive posts that you might start skipping through as they get added to (because it's filled with old…
I think your computer is just falling short of some much needed processing help in all areas - cpu, ram, and the video card. I know that doesn't help unless you go out and buy all new stuff. I'm no expert but maybe your best performance boost would be a better video card. I recently upgraded to an nvidia 460 gtx for fairly…
I would wait for the 900 series cards to come out, they will be relatively affordable compared to the past pricing of the higher end cards (the 980 should be $450 I think? I paid that amount for my 770 4gb almost exactly a year ago, and its nearly 25% faster). That or get a 770 4gb when the new series comes out, should be…
