Re: Animating multiple pages of a popup book in Max
Pop up book pages are normally very stiff unlike regular books, which makes things easy. All you need to do is bind/skin each page to its own bone/joint, and rotate those one at a time. The popup itself is just two joints with an IK solver linked to a split point somewhere along the pages bone. Example: Now if you want to… -
Re: Help! move objects with custom attribute holder
Hello again :D I made a vital change on the model cause I found out that the proportions were incorrect so I made a bit of research and found a diagram with radius and meassurements for it and changed it, now it should work but I'm still having the same problem with the rigging part. the lower part works but trying to rig… -
Re: Quad Optimize?
once you have some form of tessellation and map based pseudo limit surface such as a displacement map or vector displacement map things start to change quite a bit. as your poly count goes up you conform closer to the pseudo limit surface. then the tessellation takes you as close as the system will allow. at some density… -
Re: Does anyone have any tips or guidance when it comes to rigging?
Do you see the little wrench icon (Weight Tool) ? Use that instead of the Abs. Effect. Since you are just getting started, I recommend as a first pass vertex weighting the entire model using only 1 or 0.5 weighting. This will give you a mostly rigid weighting with just a little bit of blending at the joints. On the second… -
Re: Green strip in reflections
Oh man, thanks a lot skillmaster; the answer was in the OneMinus node. Emissive only really brightened up a lot of the diffuse, which wasn't desired, but it did get me experimenting. I plugged the OneMinus in the alpha and got these results: It seems that many of the highlights in my reflections are coming from the green… -
Re: WIP Bracer (16 year old newbie artist)
knowing how long you've been modeling would be beneficial to know as far as feedback is concerned. I know you said you started at 10, but if this is like your second model, or your 300'th, I think the feedback would be different but regardless, I'm going to assume you don't have a terrible amount of experience You should… -
Re: [UE4] Procedural Brooklyn Buildings in Houdini

I'm looking forward to see your project… -
[3Ds Max] [CAT] The ankles are messed up. How to fix?
I think it had been a few years since I have posted here, but this place was always good about finding solutions. Running 3ds Max 2013 64bit, and (trying to) animate in the cat tool, with a character someone provided to me. Standard human CAT rig, with one toe bone. When I apply an animation layer, and start to animate the… -
Re: My first pimpage ever
eyyyyyyya!K! Gotta tweak that meshflow.. The neck, the forehead, under the nose, bottom lip.. You have a lot of weirdly placed edges, w/ seemingly triangles, but actually having 4 sides (forehead, under the bottom lip), now there's nothing wrong with using tri's and quads, especially if this is a game model (remember that… -
Re: Gameloft Art test.
So my friend who got the job at Gameloft used 1/4 of the texture space that was given to him and produced an equally sophisticated product as other tests ive seen with the same assignment. We are both aware that his wasnt the best we had seen, but the reason he got hired is because he solved the problem presented to him in…
