Hey folks, First of all - I'm a crusty old seadog and I know all about normals so please don't hassle me about smoothing groups and so on. :) I think there's a bug in max 2014 where tangent basis gets messed with somewhat randomly. I can get a situation where adding edit normals modifier temporarily fixes up the TBN…
Maya 2014 (Educational) has somehow started lagging. Does anyone have ay idea how to solve it? 1) Create a cube primitive. 2) Switch to Vertex Selection. 3) Draw Marquee around selectable Vertices. >> Maya viewport does not immediately display update with selected vertices (yellow vertices) The Viewport DOES update when I…
I have tested 3DSMax 2014 with a Nvidia GTX 560ti, and it performed a lot better than previous versions in Directx 11 (Shaded + highlights). 5-20 Million polygon scenes. For lower polygon counts 3DSMAX 2011 with a Nvidia GTX 9800 still seems faster in shaded + highlight mode. Can someone test the 3DSMax viewport…
I was wondering if anyone knows how to mirror bone (not biped) animations in 3ds max 2014? I've got a run right animation and rather than having to make it all again but for the run left, I thought it might be easier to mirror the animation and yet it turns out that's harder than I thought. Also it's for use in UE4 so I…

Hey guys, So I have just un-installed Maya 2013 to replace it with Maya 2014. Everything seems to work fine except one big problem. When I create a new Poly Mesh and right click it to switch to face/vertex/obj mode, the option does not appear! Instead I get this error - file: C:/Program…
I currently use 3DSMax 2011 with a Nvidia 8800GTX video card. This seems to give the best viewport performance. My newer Nvidia 560ti gives worse viewport performance in 3dsmax 2011. 3Dsmax 2012 and 2013 have always given worse viewport performance in both Nitro or Shaded mode with the 8800GTX and the 560ti. 3DSMax 2014…
Hey everyone, I thought I would share my 2014 demo reel, although I shall not be revisiting these pieces since I am doing work towards my 2015 reel I think feedback would be valuable for pushing forward with the rest of my work. I have had 0 industry experience, although I am on a constant lookout to land my first role in…
So, after people talking about it here I thought it may be better to create a master thread for anyone entering the Blizzardfest 2014 contest. Since Polycount isn't officially entering the competition, this single thread may be a fun way to post your work on PC without having a barrage (assuming anyone plans on entering)…
