I am primarily environment artist, but I wanted to expand my horizons and learn some blueprint stuff. My understanding of coding is very limited, walls of code always intimidated me, but using the node based system of blueprints is much less scary. This is my first serious take on blueprints, I wanted to reproduce the…
so they changed the scale tool in Unwrap UVW max 2012 to be more like a freeform adjust in both horizontal and vertical instead of scaling uniformly ? My mind can't wrap around why they would change this. -anyone have a workaround/fix to be able to scale uv faces uniformly?

warning, massive post ;) (but plenty of nice pictures + 4 YouTube videos) Site: http://www.pingui-island.de/ What? Last big project I worked on in 2008 and 2009 before I moved to Australia. I was the man writing the tech for the Flash AS3 engines, asset pipeline (maxscript) and level editor (Flash AS3) and several of the…
How are you generating the cracks currently? The way you're thinking about this is backwards. In Designer it's bad practice to go back and fix your noise/patterns with other nodes. It is better to find out why something is occurring and edit those settings earlier in the chain. From what little information I have it looks…
But their transform node does allow to to change the pivot point and scale/rotate from that point. You don't need more than the basic Transform 2D node. Cropping and slicing are done easily with things like the Transform 2D node as well, using pretty much the same exact controls as PS, but in a non destructive manner.…
Thanks for the replies everyone :) I'm happy to hear that you found it useful! Noise: Warren Marshal is right, you might need to tick the "Replace Vertex Colors" setting. However, to see vertex colour/alpha on your mesh you will also need to add a Vertex Color node to the material and multiply it either by your Diffuse or…

Hello there. My game features a player answering questions by going through a door, corresponding with their answer, which spawns a new room and a new question. There are 3 paths the player can take. You can see how the first level looks in the first image I've uploaded.…
