yeah for flow man creation for like hairstrands i also always hoped for a method that lets me comb and interpolate vertex normals and then bake these down into a flowmap or vertex color. i always hated painting flowmaps in 2d or painter
If i were a programmer I'd make "my own" & negate whatever they are doing with their "new one". ("control panel") //slightly-.o.t. You programmers are a "lucky" bunch to avoid most of this stuff, at least you got that going for ya, surprised all you, programmers haven't already made your own, o.s.'s. Strange really... oh…
So, since most people don't read a whole post I'll say this up front, im posting this for discussion purpose to just see how industry people or striving industry people feel about the situation Yes, SOE should have spoke up as soon as the attacks happened, however, I wouldn't want to tell millions of people your shit's…
Layered Alphas for Skin Patterns I haven't had the opportunity to touch this project in a while, but here is an update to show how the dynamic texture alphas work for the skin patterns. I have two layers of alphas - Overall/body alphas (shown as light grey) and Head alphas (shown in dark grey and occasionally brown). The…
Well earlier today my machine was working fine, I stopped and had to buy tires, curses, and then slept some, just woke up and the piec of crap machine won't start. It makes an attempt and then shuts down. Noooo. I'm wondering if the PSU is dying. I had to replace it before. I believe it's over 600 w. The only strange thing…
@pior Got you, under the premise of not knowing what I'm going to break and what great feature I'm going to miss out on, that's really solid advice and a strong argument to learn the default first - (in fact on my first key-bind attempt, I already had to disable 20 or 30 things I had no idea about, just to not conflict…
Hey, just blowing off some major steam. Ignore this if ya want. My computer was down to 1% hard disk space, so I figured it was high time for a reformat. Done it many times and never with a problem, this time everything went to shit. I backed up everything important (A fair amount) on my external Hard Drive, and formatted…
Here is my entry to the competition. After doing some research I found out that Orcas are actually dolphins and some of them go and feed in the Mediterranean. I also researched the Greeks a bit due to the time period and noticed that they seem to have rough nose dolphins painted in some of their art. My girlfrined told me…
So I just got a new job and I have to learn maya, and Im having the most frustrating time learning to do the most elementary things, like target weld vertices. Can maya just not handle this?! do I actually have to weld two vertices,let maya compute the average postiton and then go in and manually move the vert to where I…
I like the idea of CAT, or at least being able to set up highly customized rigs quickly. I liked it before autodesk bought it and included it. It had its issues but it was at least functional. But ever since then, the more they try to integrate it and update it, they end up breaking it. * We won't use it in production…
