(TurboSmooth preview) MaxScript request
I am looking for a simple MaxScript to speed up my workflow. When I press tilde (The key to the left of the number '1'), I want Max to check the modifier stack of all objects with the prefix "HP_" for a TurboSmooth. If non exists, add one to the top of the stack with 2 iterations, but if one already exists, then make the… -
Re: Older work and its impact on the hiring process.
Hello, I will not go over all the reasoning for the adoption of the "EA Sports-like" set of tools as some sort of exercise, or even as an admittedly useful shortcut to reduce some tedious aspects of model creation. That is because even though tech knowledge never hurts and can be indeed be very useful ... it is a moot… -

Designing a template for an art wall!
Hi guys! Different kind of pimping here. Would love some feedback on this as well. (I've also posted this to my blog: http://www.jonjones.com/2013/08/27/worklog-how-to-create-an-art-wall/) Art management time! Has anyone created a wall grid full of printed art assets for basic tracking and visualization? How did you do it… -
Re: The new paper-like tablet
Huh..not to be negative, but isn't this just e-ink combined with pen pressure input? I mean..it's a cool combo, but looks a lot like how drawing on an old kindle might look..complete with the e-ink refresh weirdness (definitely visible on when the people press UI buttons with fingers), limited pressure input (hard to… -
Re: buying meshes?
We end up buying stuff from turbosquid rather often. I'm really not a fan...70 percent of the time the models are absolute shit. A lot of the time we end up purchasing high poly vehicle models. Had the most luck with vehicles so far. If we pay $150 bucks or something, it ends up being cheaper than having one of us spend a… -
Re: Low Polygon Joints - What is the best way?
These examples are all valid - some will be better for ultra-low-end stuff (DS, mobile games etc), like the last example there. For higher-end stuff, it's always going to look better if you have more polygons in the areas that deform, otherwise you can end up with a fairly ugly "sharp" lowpoly silhouette. Joint position is… -
Modeler Newb
Hey guys first time poster here. I have been modeling for quite some time but I usually work on higher end stuff so low poly is really a stretch for me ( I guess I should say a crunch) any how a few questions. First off here is my model and the map http://www.youtube.com/v/hM2eoLw6PTE&hl=en&fs=1 and here is the texture map… -
Wacom releases new Bamboo line!
for the budget constrained, great tablet options you have! http://www.wacom.com/en/Products/Bamboo/BambooTablets.aspx I have the old Bamboo Pen and Touch (now replaced by an Intuos4 L), and apart from the size not fitting the way I work (hence the L :P), I found it a very very good tablet to use. Dont let the pressure… -
Re: Substance designer for modeling. What's the advantage?
It's a complete dead end. The model graph is deprecated co you can't manipulate meshes at all. If you're talking about generating displacement maps and deforming geometry then I guess it's useful in the same way that it is in any other tool. It's an image processing and compositing tool, best to treat it as such
