Re: is the Max Unwrapper grip scaleable?
A better option than the grid is just to turn on the Pixel Snap toggle. It's in the lower right corner of the Edit UV window, the icon looks like a magnet. Click and hold on it, and make sure that the magnet with a P above it is selected. (P for pixel). The only catch is that it will only snap to pixels of a texture in the… -
Re: SOS why is my skinning ass
are you using the default smooth tool in maya? It doesn't work very great. (it doesnt do a good job of being smart about where to get influences from) Look into getting the NG skin tools plugin if you aren't already. It has smooth brush that actually works as you'd expect. If using default tools, instead of smooth brush,… -
Re: UV-Remap: A New Tool for Rearranging the UVs of Textured Models
That's really cool, as being able to edit things non-linearly that way is a real superpower. This reminds me a bit of how FAOGen is still useful after all these years. As far as I am concerned I am satisfied with doing UV rearrangement/combining using the default Blender baking tool since it does UV channel transfer very… -

MaxScript: Playback Curve Editor Friendly
Download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/htxdfvllh94lils/Martinez_Macro_Playback.mcr?dl=0 One of the banes of my existence (with 3ds Max) is that you can't have the Curve Editor open when you hit the play button because the viewport slows to a crawl. You either need to deselect all your objects, or you need to close the editor.… -
Light building nonsense, light map problems?
Okay, so I'm trying to put together a little outside winter piece to put one of my characters in. I worked on a cabin and decided to see how it would look in a basic UDK map. I simply opened the default night scene and put my cabin with the textures in. Then I generated lught maps for my cabin meshes within. After that, I… -
Max 9... what units for Decay in Displace?
I'm trying to setup a SuperSpray particle system in Max 9.1 that mimics how doppler shrinks/expands sound waves as objects approach/recede from the emitter. I'm using a cylindrical Displace spacewarp, with a Gradient Ramp, and all is well. I just can't visualize out how the Decay spinner works. I'd like the displacement to… -
Re: [FIXED] Problems with baking high to low poly between marmoset 4 and substance painter
You low poly model have same shading gradients. I would try to get rid of them first because whatever perfect it may look in Substance it still might be there in actual game engine due to normal map compression , screen space something etc . At least I saw them in Unreal4 , haven't tried v5 much. Having low res model… -
[SOLVED] Restore shelf height/size in Maya?
Hi everyone. I used the following code to change Maya's default shelf height: int $shelfHeight = `layout -q -height ShelfLayout`; int $doubleShelf = $shelfHeight + 20; if ($shelfHeight < 150) { layout -e -height $doubleShelf ShelfLayout; } else { layout -e -height 40 ShelfLayout; } And it works but know the problem is that… -
UDK lightmap problem
Hey all! I'm making small map, and i'm having problems with baking lightmap. I made 3 assets, each having two uv sets. The second, shadow map, has no overlapping faces, and it is snapped to grid aswell. Lightmap size was set to 256, but the probelm is, when i bake shadows, this is the result: I just don't see what is…
