Re: Rendering out from 3D for 2D games environments
Might help to think of it similar to traditional modular modeling. Model on a grid. Keep each piece separate, but make sure they tile together properly. Setup a unique camera per model, and make it as isometric as possible (no perspective), framed precisely to the edges of each tile. Use one lighting rig for all pieces, so… -

Re: Uncharted 3 Interview
Let's put it this way: I interviewed at a studio a few months back and we were talking about their rigging system... I asked if they were using Biped and he said no and practically danced a jig. Obviously you could use CAT or PuppetShop or a custom solution; it's not like Autodesk is holding a gun to your head. But I still… -
Re: Wayne Static-Guitar Hero Style
It's looking cool, and the anatomy would fit right into a Guitar hero game. However if you are going to use this as a sculpting mesh, you might want to get rid of the triangles around your mesh. When they subdivide, they create three pronged posts which create nasty pinch points as you subdivide further. Also, it looks… -
Re: Maya UVW mapping
Why not read Maya's readme html files, spend some time over at creativecrash or go through some youtube tutorial, some are no more than 2 mins long if you want to learn Maya. Asking everyone about Maya and its UV module and not be willing to dig some dust off yourself is a nono IMO. Its like you want people to answer any… -
Re: Maya copy/paste without groups

(That's US pricing, UK is £7.47/15.88.) Here's all the student pricing they offer: https://creative.adobe.com/plans?plan=edu for US and… -

Re: UV Transfer, Different Topology
Thanks, Bek! I don’t think the low poly has a huge difference in scale (see picture above), but I will definitely have to check out Cage baking. (I currently know nothing about ray distance!) CreativeSheep: Thanks again for checking out the geo! I used the transfer maps in Maya… -
Re: [3DSMAX] Instance replace script that also replaces groups
Where have you looked so far? Scriptspot? Maxplugins.de? Creativecrash? Google? I think Neil Blevins has a replace instance tool that factors in Groups, but I'm not sure. http://www.neilblevins.com/cg_tools/soulburnscripts/soulburnscripts.htm
