Baking multiple object's AO in 3ds Max: I keep getting black BGs
Hey guys, I'm learning how to bake texture maps at the moment. So in max 2012, when I hit 0 for render to texture and select several different meshes, add an Ambient Occlusion output and hit render, the first map always comes out right (with a white BG). Subsequent maps come out with black BGs and are harder to use. This… -
How do I unwrap this object for lightmapping/texturing/collision?
Hi all, I create most of my assets in Rhino before converting them to meshes and exporting to 3ds Max. This process creates lots of triangles and the topology isn't particularly clean, which I believe makes exporting out to UE4 a bit more problematic. I wanted to ask if someone would take the time to show me how they would… -
Zbrush move tool is skewing instead of moving my object (brick tutorial)
I'm going over a tutorial on how to make tiling bricks with Zbrush found at http://www2.zbrushcentral.com/movies/zclassroom/tileable_texturing.mov.zip and I'm stuck at the part where the guy is placing the bricks onto the canvas and shaping the bricks. On his video, he can shape the bricks by using the move button. But… -
[Maya&UV] Do I need different UV maps/sets for single object with different materials
This is my first environment project. I'm building a outside streets. So, I made a wall with a door and windows on it which looks like this. No.4(the wall) needs to be tiling as bricks, but the door and windows are going to have different texture. My question is, do I need to make separate UV maps/sets for tiling wall and… -

Re: (Finished) Research Outpost - Unreal Engine 5 Environment
Thank you for the detailed feedback @Peyd3d, I really appreciate the time you took to write this and even provide the paintover. It’s very helpful. =) You’re absolutely right about studying reference and thinking more about how assets are actually constructed. The point about assets reading as single pieces is something I… -
Differences between the render times of 2 different scenes but with the same objects Maya Arnold
Hey guys, Im a little confuse. I have 2 scenes with 2 different animations (every part of the scene is on reference), and when i try to render 1 frame of the first scene, it takes +/- 4 minutes for 1080p. But for the second one, it takes 25 minutes for 1 frame. Knowing that the cameras are placed at the same place, and… -

[3dsmax][topogun]Question about texturing/modeling multiple objects
Sorry if the topic title is confusing, i wasn't sure how to word this. I'm quite new to 3d and i have a question: I wanted to make a model of garlic braid, low poly, with normal and occlusion maps. I thought id make a high poly model of a garlic and assemble it in 3ds max (see picture for example) so that it makes a braid.… -
Tricky hard-surface object approaches
Hey guys, So after much forceful hair removal and throwing of teddies into the corner, I thought I'd ask how you guys would approach modeling this particular shape. I've created a rough guideline shape using splines in Max, and am now scratching my head as to how to get this into a workable mesh. I've been staring…
