Re: 3ds Max to mudbox and normal mapping question
i finish a basemesh/game-resolution-mesh - to be used as subdivision level 1 for sculpting - in the 3D app first. e.g. as a generic head or entire body without very characteristic features, then define UV's and triangulation (make sure your OBJ ex/importer does not mess with that - Z and MB will respect and preserve it as… -
Re: any way to render normal maps in Maya 6.0?
ahhh I had to do a little futzing around to make it work. First I went to http://www.drone.org/tutorials/spaceChange.html and grabbed the spaceChange50.zip file - this is a utility node that lets you change between different coordinate systems. I don't see a spacechange version for 6.0, dunno if the 5.0 version will work… -

Re: How to make my model less heavy so I can unwrap for UV mapping.
1) That's what I do. I start with basemesh from 3ds Max and subdivide it in Zbrush for sculpting. Or If I start with dynamesh, I do quick retopology with Zremesher to get some subdivisions. It's much easier to work with subdivisions. 2) You make hairs with alpha planes, that's how it's done today. Mostly hand painted… -

However, what if the clothes has a clear… -
