2012 has this wonderful bug with certain video cards where the default shading is screwed up. Happens with mine (a GeForce GTX 480), even with the hotfix/SP1 installed; thus I'm still on 2011. Does the shading on your default primitives look okay? (No strong backlight/fresnel effect for no reason?) You can try to go to…
Hi everybody, We are mainly using max and the real time hardware shading capacity of even 2014 gives oddities with normal maps, still lacks environment map support as far as I could see. Xoliul shader was the better option but is not continued and wasn't quirk free either around 2012-2013. Idealy it would be a sollution…
Ah... I actually have no idea about this. Literally none, and I guess that's a deal breaker for you? Out of curiosity, have you tried seeing what impact 1 draw call VS "however many you'd need if they were separate" will have?

You may be right though about me not ridding some user files or something. If I recall when I reformatted my entire Hard drive I was able to spam my compact…
Yeah doing the teeth every link definitely would have looked better in hindsight, I was going off of this pic: Also, my teeth stick up too far, and look pretty crap on the bake. I should have done planes, but I wanted to animate like EQ ha. I finished the bake, slapped the quickest diffuse on there ever (flat with AO) and…
Hey everyone! With Legacy dDo recently becoming available to everyone, I thought it might be fitting to give my plugin one last major update. Have a look! Swift manipulation of materials: There are automatic texture, utility, and shading group naming conventions to keep organized, all based on the material name: Get your…
this is good article about rule of thirds and why not to follow it blindly tho. But i would say its more advanced when you think about tangents leading shapes and stuff. There is world beyond rule of thirds https://petapixel.com/2016/01/30/10-myths-about-the-rule-of-thirds/
