hey i missed this post when i was skimming the thread. if the effected object has a scale of (-1,-1,-1) then thats really simple to fix. just multiply each scale transform buy -1 ie -1*(-1,-1,-1) and that should give you the correct result. the scale and rotation are independent. you don't need to mess with rotation.
try this (convex only though so concave would need to split into convex then recombined after being wrapped individually)... -- creates a ray point along the edge fn getEdgeRay msh edg =
( ze = edg - 1; a = (mod ze 3) + 1; b = mod a 3; fverts = getface msh (ze/3 + 1); v0 = getvert msh fverts[a]; v1 = getvert msh fverts[b +…
Was thinking of getting one of these alienware aurora for my home office. It's Running Windows 7, do you guys think that Max 9, and Zbrush will run on it? or will have to upgraydd to Max 2010 and the 3.5 update for zbrush? FYI I don't want to upgraydd. Here are the specs: Intel Core i7 920 (2.66GHz, 8MB Cache)…
Wrote something up for ya. Will show the positions of selected object(s)/vert(s)/edge(s)/face(s), averaging their values if multiple are selected like in max: if (`window -exists xyzWindow`) deleteUI xyzWindow;window -wh 275 75 -mxb 0 -title "xyzWindow: component positions" xyzWindow;rowColumnLayout -numberOfColumns 2…
I'm coming back to the US after more than a decade abroad, would like to work in a walkable/bikeable city on the west coast. I'll be available in a couple months. I will partake of the free office coffee and you guys can hear me swear whenever Zbrush crashes, it'll be great fun. I do a lot of scifi and fantasy stuff. I've…
I wrote once my own binary exporter also for custom engine. The code doesn´t care about modifier´s or whatever is on the stack, all that matters is the final state of the mesh. WHat it does is it takes a snapshot of the mesh/poly (converted to mesh) and read out that data. There was some hack around the UV extraction but I…
Hey guys! This will be a bit of a long post, and I thank you for anyone taking the time to read this..! Background on career shift: ・Back in 2018, I couldn't find any fulfillment with my current role as a DevOps at a financial institution, so I took a leap in my career to leave my job, and pursue the things I've been…
*sigh* Voted for it with my collegue. Seems like this was introduced by the newer bevel algorithm of Maya 2016, as it is reproduced in Maya 2016 without Extension 2. The old algorithm, forced with the following command, behaves correctly: polyBevel -com 1 -fraction 0.5 -offsetAsFraction 1 -autoFit 1 -segments 1 -worldSpace…
Here's an easy way to fix it. If you laid out your shells outside the 0 to 1 space, into 0 to -1, -1 to 1, etc. Here's an easy way to remedy it: Here's your shells outside the 0 to 1 Select them and move your scale pivot up to 1, 1. Like so: Then scale your shells in both U and V directions until they fit nicely into the 0…
