Re: Futuristic gun - first next-gen model
"Long thin triangles" have generally been more of an issue with static objects utilizing vertex lighting, whereas objects such as these that would likely receive real-time lighting aren't as affected by this....of course this also depends on the engine. As far as your texture size, there is realistically no purpose to… -
Re: Daves Maya Qstns- (another one of "those"threads)
*Append Poly is your Maya connect. Now that they've got the loop and ring stuff in there you shouldn't need MJ Poly Tools at all. Probably *I'm fairly sure you're stuck with Maya's navigation. You'll get used to it pretty quickly, its not that different. *I haven't used silo, but you can highlight different kinds of… -
Re: Vector math - understanding the output to use in code
Yeah vectors are perfect for this. So I'm guessing you have a rocket which has something like 4 RCS modules spread out around the middle of the craft? Then whichever is closest to the ground is activated? You could do that with dot product. So you need to get the direction the models are facing somehow, in Unity it'd be… -
Re: Autodesk 3ds Max Maxscript: Return vertex index of an object touching another object?
Thank you for the ideas, monster. I can't believe I didn't think about distance sooner. It's more likely I'll go with the first option, since I'm not using high poly models. I will try those and see which works best. Edit: Here is what I have now, but I'm still unsure how to compare the distances properly. theSpheres =… -
Re: Melscript - rename renderlayers and create one
hmm nope - the layers still only contain the stuff of the camera group not the stuff of the subgroup... (fixed a little spelling error of your script ;) // buttons button -w 100 -h 100 -backgroundColor .4 .9 .4 -label "Create Renderlayers from Maingroup" -command "rlayer"; button -w 100 -h 100 -label "Autorename the… -

Re: 3DS maxscript autorig
Layer.addNode $ In this case the word Layer is more than just a word in the lines above I told it that Layer = "get Layer From this Name: MyLayerName" So anytime it sees the word layer it will go looking for a layer with that specific name. Then maxscript has a function called ".addnode" which adds whatever comes next to… -

Re: [maya] froX : an xNormal script exporter for maya
