3ds max disable vertex move option
Hey guys, Ive recently bought myself a new, very sensitive mouse for gaming, and it is having some undesirable side effects when modeling in 3ds max.

Environment art workflow questions: texel density importance, when to bake highpoly

normal map baking cage help

Mudbox 2011 Knife Tool
I'm fairly new to Mudbox but with the help of Digital Tutors, I've picked up on it really fast. I'm currently having an issue with the Knife tool. Drawing a straight vertical line, it works great. Once I make a curve or go horizontal, that pattern stamps that vertical line instead of cuts with the Eye of Sauron stamp as…
