Re: Texture unwrapping for tileable textures
I've seen Justin's UV layout before in textures that both do and don't tile; the key is that one chunk (the Tiling bark) extends to both sides of the vertical UV space, meaning that the texture can allow for tiling without running into an inappropriate area, but since it only does it on one axis (vertical), you're allowing… -
Re: Advice with secondary forms
That's on the right path. Now you've got this insight, I'd say, go back to your reference, and really pay attention to this aspect. On the reference sculpt, this idea is very extreme compared to this update. I'd draw your attention to the long straight vertical line down the spine, it varies from no crease to strong crease… -
3ds max inset orientation
When you use the inset function in 3ds max it seems the vertices kind of all do what they want going in unsavory directions. Is there a setting to orient the vertices to move toward a central point? I'm trying to create a uniform set of concentric circles to create what looks like the rubber rings on a subwoofer. I know… -
3dsmax removing unwanted vertexes
Hi when I select an edge loop on a edit poly , I select the edge then if I do cntrl + remove button in the ribbon ... it removes the edge and also the vertices, if I do the same thing on a Edit poly that is above another one in the stack , it removes the edge line but it leaves the vertices there and I have to go manually… -
Bend/ FFD 4x4 without distort?
Hey Guys, is there a way to bend a plane without to distort the vertical edges? I have 50 vertical lines on this plane and after bending they should be in the same distance to each other. But it looks like that some polys are higher then the other ones after bending. How to handle that? Here the Plane without distortion:… -
Weird vertex issue
I was using the retopology tools in 3ds max 2012 and one of the vertices ended up having a problem I have never seen before. It wasn't hard to fix, but I am still curious as to what causes this exactly. This issue was causing my projection cage to extend at the wrong angle from this vertex, which was causing some… -
3ds Max UV vertex selection to poly vertex selection? (Or Alternative: Blender)
I need to use a selection of vertices from a UV map to go up the 3ds max stack to an edit poly above so that I can then do specific vertex colors on these vertices alone. This only works on faces from the UV unwrap. If there is no way to do this in max, is there a way to do it in Blender (note: my Blender knowledge is very… -
Re: Creating a Realtime Res Tree - High Poly to Low Poly RETOPO Confusion
If you were concerned about the quality of the auto retopo, you should see them :D But horizontal divisions are more import than vertical ones in the case of this asset because those define the silhouette. I'd try to set it up so it gives a bit more horizontal divisions here and there, and less vertical ones that doesn't… -
Re: Deus Ex: Human Revoloution Med Lab Prop
Here are some new progress shots of the Med Table: I decided to start refining the shape and details of the large tables and the vertical tube section of the mesh. Wire renders: Here are a closer look at the details that I added to the table tops and the vertical tube: Detail wires: Once again, any feedback would be… -
Re: How does one go rigging 180-360 turns without popping?
I think twisting happens when some vertices are moving while connected to other vertices that aren't moving. If you try twisting a piece of fabric (try it on your sleeve), it does the same thing. I don't think there's way around it, not without an additional loop cut around the middle with a corrective morph (aka…
