Re: Texture baking features?
Could you please elaborate on that, or provide me with an example, please? I have trouble understanding that. Are you talking about baking from actual high poly surfaces (presumably sculpted) such as a plant onto a low poly object that for instance containes planes/quads that are supposed to catch rays from the high poly… -
Xgen expression confusion
Dear All, I have a little confusion with xgen expression editor. I saw a lot of example, and read the autodesk pages but I don't understand how is it works.

There has to be a way...
Max 8 Character Studio Question here: Say I have a simply walk cycle, where my biped is covering distance, from frame 0-40. My character has a long distance to walk, so I'd like to be able to simply save that animation from 0-40 out and load it for 40-80. I've been having problems with the save/merge animation features… -

Re: Transfer Map Problem
Yes Maya has backface culling. In the viewport menu -> Shading>Backface Culling Alternatively you can go into Lighting and turn off two sided lighting, this will show a black polygon face instead of a transparent polygon(possibly easier to spot). You can also verify face normal directions through Display>Polygons>Face… -
Re: UDK - Material - Texture Defined Specular
Damn you and your interesting problems! I need to sleep some time! :P I'm on to something Very early test to see if my thoughts held any water. They DO and I'll see if I can make this work later on. The short of it is this: Transform the object's normals into Light space(in this example they're in view space since that's a… -
Re: [3DSMax] Rigging bendy things, blendshapes and bones in tandem?
Thanks for looking into that further Mark. I've been looking into MaxScript to force correct evaluation and this seems to work. I can set everything up using the normal render settings dialogue and instead of pressing render there, I run this script. It'll run the range specified in render settings. There's no nice time… -

Re: Normal maps hate me - please help
No such things as too much edge padding, its a ridiculous sentiment. When doing the exploding, you should keyframe your objects. Object mode for highpoly peices) and vertex mode fro lowpoly pieces select by "element" in edit poly). Then add a keyframe at frame 0, and one at frame 10. If you're exporting to XN or something…
