I'll be honest and say i did use the eraser a few times... but i kept it as minimal as i could! Let's… -
Zeitgeist (the movie)
Watch all the links with "the movie" in the title and the corresponding parts to each film. http://youtube.com/results?search_query=zeitgeist I just watched this entire thing at a friends house and I'm not quite sure what to think or believe. Even if a sliver of what was said is truthful, its depressing to think of. I… -
Robotic arm rig in 3ds max
Hi Polycount, I'm having issues with trying to rig a robotic arm. I want to stop any sort of rotations on the X and Z axis but I seem to be having no luck. I've setup a simple HI solver and tried snapping the bones to dummies so that they match the picot point of the arm chunks. I've also tried playing around with locking… -
Re: NON SMOOTH SKIN 3DSMAX BUG
Is this just a display problem or does it affect deformations as well? Does it happen with all envelopes? I'd lean towards it being a display problem because even if you edited those vertices manually in some form (entering a weight, exclusion, applying some solver), which would exclude them from being influenced by the… -
Re: Group that formed modern Capitol Punishment now says "US Court System doesn't work"
Oh look another person without a clue. None of you know even the slightest thing about the US "justice" system, because if you knew even the tiniest sliver, you'd know it was a travesty of epic proportions. I can post all day long, because the facts all point to a complete clusterfuck of epic proportions, and the rest of… -
Re: [Portfolio] Steffen Kist, Environment Artist
yeah everything is looking tons better. There is a sliver of white on the edges of a couple of your pictures that are bugging me. And your massive text still bothers me... but I guess that might just come down to preference. Though it does bother me less as it is better implemented as buttons and not those hideous grey… -
Re: [3DS Max] Custom bones won't reset to default positions like bipeds
Actually, while I was trying out your method and subsequently messing about earlier today, I may have pulled off something better with usage of IK solvers... It seems to be working, as it defaults to the initial position whenever I do Assume Skin Pose. All that's left for me is to figure out how to have it imitate bipeds… -
Re: Bill Gates: Better than Batman? (Large image warning)
I don't think anyone is taking it this far. We reap the benefits of capitalism on daily basis but we are not so objective when it comes to recognizing people who have becomes successful on that very system. He made his fortune on a few excellent ideas. You have to remember, he's not a banker or a lawyer or a politician. At… -
Re: Question about diffrence in modelling for TV/movie and games ?
Riggin for games often based around a human IK rig or an other "simple" rig. Games engine are much more limited what they support for rigging. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aeMreixkE4 Film rigs are complex beasts with thousands of blendshapes and all kind off custom solvers. Muscle and fat deformations.… -
Re: Why I Hate Demo Reels
For any student technical artists out there wondering how to showcase their portfolio, this artist Simon Verstraete breaks his work down super well in seperate ArtStation threads. https://www.artstation.com/siver For me this clearly shows how much more useful an ArtStation thread is over a demoreel/showreel.
