Re: How to make scale Armor in Zbrush?
With IMM, you're going to want to resist the temptation to lay down the fattest choice. It won't be able to bend the same way around an object unless you turn projection on, which you probably don't want for something rigid. You'll want to do it strip by strip so that you can adjust the curve to make sure everything aligns… -
Re: Building interiors - BSP? Static meshes?
Use BSP for primary occluders - BSP subdivides 3D space to make shapes (hence Binary Space Partitioning) so its primary use today is to break the environment down into manageable chunks. For instance you might use it for the walls of a building you can't see out of - the engine will see that you can't see the BSP sectors… -
Re: Maya Invincible Edges
The previous comments are correct. You have a floating face, not edge. There are some options you can enable that will help you see degenerate faces. In Windows>Setting/Preferences>Selection : Enable Face Centers This will put a dot in the middle of faces, and can help you determine collapsed faces across your model.… -
Re: UDK Underwater Scene (Large Images)
Well, I had a fiddle with things last night and changed the path of the camera after the sunken Rowboat and InfiniteBubblesCannister™ so that it moves a lot quicker over the scene and towards the dropoff. There you can see loads of mysterious lights in the depths behind the silhouette of a huge whale. The problem, is that… -
Re: Xoliul's 3DS Max and Maya Viewport Shader
I am having a new issue with this. Normally when I am done with the shader and want to cease using it. I copy an instance of my renderable texture up into the Texture Type button, thus going from DirectX Texture to Standard. This has been fine, but lately, if I do that I only see a wire-frame of my model regardless of if I… -
Re: The Valley of the Suck! (Character Art)
Getting better... I need to redo the entire gesture sculpt, since theres something wrong at the fundamentals of the chest area. I think it was the obliques that completely messed up my upperbody. Will redo the sculpt and if this next one comes out well I will continue and try to get it to the finishline. Maybe i should… -
Re: Problem in Mudbox.
if you post error messages quote the whole message to the letter. you may leave out something that means something important. your second error message sounds to short. i would guess you are running on an older version of windows? maybe your running a 32 bit version of mudbox on a 64bit os. the first message, i have no… -
Re: Apple isn't playing nice
Okay, that IS a more elegant way to do it, but pausing the video requires sending a command through the Flash app. If Apple had some sort of wrapper around all of the Flash they served, they might be able to send a pause command to the video, but I think that would require Hulu's devs to rebuild the player to accept… -
Re: WIP - Character - Assassin Creature
Wilex: Thanks, I will hold off a bit, there shouldn’t be any real harm in that. Xaltar: You need not worry about being harsh with me, I appreciate the fact that you care to help and comment. I honestly don’t think there are “wasted” polys because I created each, one by one and placed the vertices on the edges of major… -
M1130 Stryker (WIP)
Well I decided to put my XML tires to use after one last rebuild. So now I've moved on to an M1130 command vehicle with slat armor and a 'Duke' antenna. Right now its very rough with no optimization, just blocking out everything I want to include, after that I'll go low and high. I'm currently looking at 6908 tris. I'd…
