Sure, Click on a dark area in the top right window of cascade (one of the ares that has no module in it)... this will bring up the global settings for that particle system in the properties window. Now go to the LOD tab, and if you expand the LOD array info, you'll see an option called "bLit". Set that value to true and…
Di$array - Thanks so much man, I was creating a super animate-able rig for her using the CAT system in 3Dsmax.It went well until the skinning bugs appeared.After a ton of research and 1ups I called it quits.I'll give it another shot though ^_^ Fred2303 - Thanks so much man and could you elaborate a bit on the unwrap please…
That Sebastian Kruger caricature of Stallone is actually an awesome example, because in the middle of big cities (London, Paris, Rome - I've seen them at all of these places) you will find at least 10 caricaturists offering to draw your picture, and in front of them are arrayed "their" past drawings ... and they nearly…
Jackablade: Yeah I thought the same thing, but I kinda like it. Mossbros: Thanks. For the cleaner topology: I exported a decimated version of the rough concept sculpt and did the retopo in Maya with creased edges. Sorry I didnt record that part Texelion: no worries Pisciel: Thanks, no probs Makkon:haha thanks man and no…
warby: I think his friend means that if you're using texture atlassing as well as wanting tiling textures, the only way to achieve it is by using more polygons. Imagine a quad that had a texture tiled in 4x2 grid. To do that with an atlassed texture, you'd need to cut the quad into 8 separate quads and UV each of the tiles…
...which is weird because $manipCoords is a float array. If anything tries to store a string in a float variable then Maya will convert that string to a float 0 and prompt the error message: "Converting string "X" to a float value of 0." It's a strange problem, and I can't really fix it because I would need a Maya 2014…
The tail will come later, being that its going to be a scout / race type of bike, its either going to be used as a sensor array / indicator device. Im just trying to get the basic shape down, I think I'm happy with it so far. I've been using pictures of concept bikes / big cats to try and combine the 2 for body shape. If…

I don't know which package you use, but in Blender you can model the net using only edges: And then apply a Skin Modifier to it to add an actual mesh with clean topology that follows the edges: You can fin the documentation for it here. If you use something else other than Blender, there's probably something similar in…
All good info. I'm going to steal this wisdom. @Di$array: I don't think it will be long before you land something. Are you willing to relocate? I'm kind of in a no man's land due to over abundunce of great artists and no jobs. I'm not at that point that my work says "wow, hire this dude" but I think you are close and if…
