Re: Tim Langdell and Edge Games still at it
The IGDA collects membership fees. That's useful. Membership fees buy beer. Score for Tim "Douchebag" Langdell stepping down. Once he's out of the picture for good, I can finish my newest game title: Edge of Edginess: The Cutting Edge Trilogy -
Re: Edges on Geometry - DDO Curvature Map Creation Bug & Best Practice
It seems my points are being lost. I'm not against using third party apps to generate maps, but currently the 'suggestion' is that DDO can create the curvature map from your input maps. However as half a dozen people in the 'support' thread have discovered it fails to account for geometric edges, thus leading to developers… -
3DS Max edge loop system
I have searched but can't seem to find anything useful. I want to know if there is a way to add edge loops in max with a bias to the outer edge of a polygon rather than the center. For example, say you have an edge ring that varies in width. You can use the dialog to add two holding edges, but since it bases the location… -
Advice on this topology? (Converging soft and hard edges)
I am trying to create perpendicular edges partway through a square-ish shape. I want one edge to be soft, and the other sharp. My first attempt: With this attempt I thought to pull apart the edges on the soft edge, so they diverge away from the hard edge and minimize the issue. The topology: The Issue is that I still get a… -
Need Help - Find "reversed edge".
HI! First I want to apologise for my bad english. Now, the problem. I'm trying to make a script that connects edges like BandSaw tool in Lightwave. For now I've written the code that divides the edges on the desired locations, and then connects them. Basically, the script works in that way: 1.takes the first edge from edge… -
Hard Edges are displayed wrong!
Hey everyone, I still have an issue with my hard edges :( If I Harden one Edge with the Harden Edge Tool in the Edge Properties Section, it displays me the hard edges as a green edge correctly (picture1). But if I select the hard edges with the hard edge selection tool, it is selecting all the edges around the one edge,… -

Re: Controlling edge falloff on a worldspace projected texture
Alright, Got it. Minor hiccup here or there along the mathematical road but I have a solution. Had to remember how to play with quadratic equations. So for an edge mask what we're essentially looking for is to modulate a hard edged mask with a more natural looking one at a specific point. Namely the point right close to… -
Re: Need help: Baking artifacts along UV seams on curved edge
That's not really an artefact. That's just what you get when projecting normals on a lowpoly mesh. If you want your round edges to be more precise, you have to increase the number of edge loops on your cylinder or whatever, to more closely match the curvature of highpoly. The lower the amount of edge loops, the worse the… -
Make a triangle with selected edges in Maya.
Does anyone know if there is a tool or technique I could use to make a triangle from 2 selected edges. I would normally use the append to polygon tool but selecting edges is really fiddily. I've also tried extruding the edge, collapsing it and snap it to a vert to manually make a triangle but it's not always easy to do it…
