Hiya , I am an art student working towards hopefully becoming a concept artist one day. when it comes to general drawing and perspective I feel very comfortable when it comes to drawing figures and isolated objects and props such as vehicles and props etc. My main weakness has always been drawing environments and…
I posted this originally on reddit but I'm posting it here too. I am working on a character rig that is driven by animated textures and I am running into problems with the layered texture node. Here's some gifs to help you understand what I'm trying to do: http://gph.is/2vBPB4S http://gph.is/2vBkCGq What I am trying to do…
Hi all, New Unity user here. I’m coming with experience predominantly in Unreal so Unity is new for me. * I’m having issues getting Unity 6.3 with HDRP to use packages. Whenever I install a new package I get the following error message and not sure how to resolve it. My Unity hub version is at the latest version (as of…
Nuts, I was worried there was only a workaround for it. The whole point of using the aiImage node is that the maya image node is actually two nodes and I was hoping to conserve a little file space + make everything a little neater. Maybe in arnold 7.
and here is my piece of code. assign it to a hotkey and you're fine. with pageUp/pageDown you can toggle the level, when your mesh is in smooth preview mode. // toggle smooth mesh preview for selection // get selected mesh nodes string $sel[] = `ls -sl -dag -lf`; // set attributes for ($s in $sel) { int $v = `getAttr…
Definitely, I come across this every single day. I can code and script/automate my way through life, but most workflow things over here are engine fixes that I can not fix myself. And when I try to talk some sense into the coder/management here, there's always a huge explanation why I wouldn't want said feature and why…
Hey :) Just some things i've noticed which make the usage of the forum not as enjoyable as it could be: 1. Why is the Edit-Button hidden as ONLY entry in a sub-menu? That's not intuitive nor helpful. Why not just put "Edit" instead of the Gear-Icon? 2. GIF-Links are NOT previewed when looking at a post BUT - and this is…
I'm a little confused about what you're asking here, maybe it's a difference in how you and i work. Personally I only use F8 when I want to work on multiple objects in component mode. To move between modes, I use the standard right click marking menu in a quick snap motion. For example, I'm in vertex mode on object A, and…
Hey guys! I'm currently working on an environment that is set under the ground in a catacomb/cellar. I want to make roots come down from the cieling and cling to the walls and pillars in the room. I'm looking for a way to avoid modelling every single root in Maya and placing them on the exact correct spot in Unreal…
Does anyone knows a simple way of doing repating chains of nodes with a parameter how many times I want to repeat. I am trying to do a slope blur with more than 32 shifting and each shift takiing each own vector/direction and it's a hell of a tedious job. In "Filter forge" for example there is a "loop" node you can connect…
