Quick UV question 3DS Max
Hi everyone, heres a quick question that I'm hoping to get a quick answer to :D Basically I UV mapped my character, I then exported it to zbrush as an .OBJ file and then brought it back to Max as an .OBJ file, when I unwrapped it in Max again all the UV edges are open! I've seen someone sometime fix this with one click… -
Can anyone take a look at these scripts?
I'm doing some freelance work and it involves rendering a product into different parts as layers. The layers are assembled as one product and uploaded into a website where the user can manipulate the layers with different materials colors etc., My contractor had a previous developer write scripts for the rendering process… -
I need some clarifications on normal maps and tangent spaces
I need some help understanding tangent space, tangent basis and getting a good normal map baking workflow. Please correct me if you notice something wrong! :) Let's say there's the following scenario: I work in Maya and have to create an asset, the client specifies their engine tangent space is synced to xNormal (Mikk),… -
Re: Xnormal error (GOING CRAZY!)
This is an old thread but... I always do a full cleanup. You can also just do a full cleanup... 1. Merge verts and uv's, check Uvs for overlapping, fix non manifolds, triangulate etc. Delete history, freeze transforms/xform. 2. If that doesnt work, duplicate your model and combine it with a new object like a Box. Delete… -
Re: Having a viewport nightmare
Sometimes the Viewport gets screwed.. like missplaced edgelines and you have to click above, or next to the actual vertex. To solve this you need to reset the Viewport, simply select one of the presets (front, perspective, etc.). Maybe this helps for this problem, too. While I think of F2 and flipped faces, maybe saving… -
Re: importing into zbrush 4
Because it's a painting program, and designed with more than just Max users in mind. You're confusing the way it handles 3d meshes on the document. When you draw the tool onto a document, you are not actually resizing it or changing it's orientation (unless you're using transpose or deformations to offset it). Import the… -
Re: Automatically centering meshes to origin?
Otherwise you could use MoP's awesome OBJ export tool : http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=62330&page=2 It does FBX (and OBJ if you prefer, but UDK has better compatibility with FBX now) and centers the object on export if you want. It's perfect for working with UDK, can select all your objects, and one click… -
Re: X-normal - high rez base texture.
Hey Gir not X-Normal advice but to get around the Z-Brush explosion try this.... Export the lowest sub div to .obj Open that in max / any 3d application. DO NOT convert to poly, modify or adjust any vertex positions. The whole explosion is sometimes down to vertex numbers being incorrect Unwrap in Max Export to Z-Brush, in… -
Re: Nvidia Melody problems
make sure when you export your model is triangulated, melody doesn't like quads. also your highpoly model might be too big (filesize) try to break it up. the axis are all the same as in max as far as I know, I haven't had alot of problems. oh and don't use 3ds, use OBJ files, to keep the UVs when exporting the OBJ files… -
Re: zbrush mesh question.
Re-Topologizing may not be the only option. I would drop the mesh down to the possible lowest sub division and export it as obj. Import it to any other 3d modeling tool and fill the hole. Its better to have that sort of work flow to make sure that you wont screw it up. Oh if you dont have any 3d modeling tool. Try blender,…
