Lightmass wont render an OpacityMask that uses vertex color
Hey Everyone, I have some glass that I wanted to have a layer of sand sitting on in my mission. I figured this would be a reasonable place to try and use vertex colors. I made an evenly subdivided plane and set up a simple material that just took my sand texture and masked it using the red chan in my vertex color node (I… -
Re: Softimage to Maya hotkeys
Maya's Hotkey Editor is pretty robust, you should be able to do everything in there (Window > Settings/Preferences > Hotkey Editor). If by "toggle selection" you mean to switch between object and component mode, I think the code is SelectToggleMode That will switch between object mode and the last active component mode.… -
My Game Developers Conference Notes
Hello everyone, I recently got back from a game developers conference out in Troy, MI called Interfaces (hosted by IADT Detroit). After a day of recovery, my brain finally felt up to typing all my notes up so you guys could all benefit from them. It was a very interesting conference with a lot of great speakers from… -
Max 2017 Bone Edit Mode Stops Working
So I am doing some rigging in 3ds max 2017 and I'm noticing a particularly annoying occurrence. When using the Bone Tools rollout menu from the Animation panel I can go along working just fine. After a while however I notice that the "Bone Edit Mode" button becomes grayed out and unclickable. Closing and opening the… -
Re: 2014 Gamasutra Salary Survey
Blueprint can be really powerful when you approach it from a programming perspective (ie: taking an OOP approach and making use of the interfaces and macros). One big problem there is that most people who use Blueprint are not going to be approaching it from a programming perspective. Those who would are more likely… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag 2 | Feedback & Suggestions
I cant remember if i've brought this up but have the problems with metalness been reported yet? for example, if you have a dark surface like paint, and you want to add a thin scratch to this which breaks the paint and shows the metal underneath, you get a white outline around the scratch. I can set up an example tomorrow… -
Re: misc. maxscript UV scripts/tools
at the end of the script it deletes the bake render job node from the object- it might the reason why later baking stuff the max way wont work anymore :/ if so sorry about that. Will dig into debugging right away - see if I can find the code part that causes that. Because I experienced something similar as well sometime… -
Re: Thoughts/ Reviews for Galaxy Note 10.1 Tablet w/ 1024 pressure level S pen?
I don't have the tablet, but sketching on the Galaxy Note is so-so. Not as good as a wacom. Some of the drawing apps have lag and for very thin lines you have to be very gentle when drawing. But if you get used to it it's ok. I really hope the Tab has a better CPU - I think that's the note's weakness when it comes to… -
Re: PBR Fresnel , Spec , Diff ? Marmoset none ?
Something I've been meaning to ask about is, on that page it shows two curves, one for rubber and one for chrome. How does marmoset toolbag control the differences between materials fresnel curves? When rendering with the mia material in mental ray I usually turn on the Fresnel checkbox and then adjust the index of… -
Mg_Dripping_Rust Triplanar?
I am big fan of the new triplanar nodes. I am also fan of MG_dripping_rust node which comes with Substance Designer. But I'm getting seams in my UV islands which is natural behaviour as the node has no idea about the seams. I tried inputting a mask which was processed with triplanar node, but still get seam. Is there any…
