something like this? see maxscript help for options on any of the commands, you might want to put an offset in for cloneNodes, or add a step to move your object myObject = [COLOR="Red"]$[/color] -- Object is selection, change to something else if necessarynumCopies = [COLOR="Red"]100[/color] -- Pick your numberfor i= 0 to…
well, I can think of two big things to comment on; 1. does the katana have distal taper? Many 3D artists model swords as if they were cut from a flat sheet of metal; you want distal taper. 2. Is the cross-section of the katana grip oval or perfectly round? You want an oval cross-section for edge alignment. other than that…
Hello, I am an indie game developer working on a first-person 3D narrative game (mid-poly, atmospheric/stylized — not photorealistic) built in Unity 6 URP. The game spans five distinct environments ranging from warm domestic interiors to cold institutional facilities to overcast outdoor settings. The same room geometry is…
ok although you dont need this I will post it anyway because I prepared it anyway so: here is a code snippet that will read out your texture vertex points if you have a UVWunweap modifiert attached:obj = selection[ 1 ];if (classof (modPanel.getCurrentObject()) == Unwrap_UVW) then ( local uv = selection[1].modifiers[…
OK warby I found something similar to what you're saying. I think you're using unsigned normal maps, which for your engine means a 128 color is considered a non-bent normal (pointing straight up on X/red). Here's a quote from one of our graphics programmers: [ QUOTE ] Signed normal maps are useful for helping to hide…
Hello there ! Here is finally how i've done it with vray. It's fairly simple, but since i'm shit at understanding technical papers, i struggled long time. So i've simply overidden the mesh normals with applying 3 different materials with a special color in the bump channel as normal map for each. This is the technic i was…
Good question. The camera I use (Olympus OMD EM1) can take 7 shots bracket at 2 EV increments, which is what I do. A nice benefit of the EM1 is that it can take all the shots with one shutter press, which is handy. Depending on your camera, you may be limited to less shots, or say, 5 shots at 1EV. In which case you might…
Yeah there's no hard rules, some projects will create modular assets around powers of 2, some will use base 10. 1:8, 1:16, or 1:10 might be as long as you go for most modular pieces, but it can really depend.
Yeah @Eric Chadwick it seems to be a white on white issue, which does look pretty cool tbh. I've run into all sorts of really bad to really neat stuff this month playing around wayyy too much with shaders, cause idk wtf i am doing but its been working out, i probably should eventually read up on all the sites explaining…
Malice Paradigm is officially initiating core asset production today for our upcoming T-rated psychological horror game, "Teratophobia." We are starting with an accelerated 14-day development cycle to build a self-contained 7-minute Game Jam Demo. Voice talent casting is already locked via Casting Call Club, and we are now…
