Re: [3DS Max] Why does normalize screw up my vertices abs effect?
Is this a RTFM Question? If you have a vertex which is not weighted to any bone and the model is offset from the initial pose the skin modifier was applied (due to animations or you moving it around) the vertex will stay at the initial position. This seems to happen here To check: simply disable the skin modifier… -
Re: Transfering UVs
vertex order in zbrush can change when you do stuff like recreate subdiv levels. your obj going in/out as such will not change it though (in my experience anyway). i find maya's attribute transfer quite awesome, still coming to the rescue when the vertex order is screwed. if the meshes are identical except for the vertex… -
Re: Uvw unwrap weirdness
Everything is based on vertex numbering for UV points. If you attach something that is the same shape, but was created in a different viewport, it will have a different vertex order/orientation. If you try to copy and past UVs, they will come out mis-aligned. If you do some welding or manual cutting, vertex numbers may be… -
Re: Is "unwrap tool" (S. Johnson) available for max 9?
Could you kindly tell me where in the customize menu you can re-assign the hotkeys for UVW editing move, rotate, scale? Edit - nm...the reason I couldn't find it before is because it isn't called "Move, rotate, scale..." like it is in the menu bar. Of course, it was obviously called "Texture vertex scale, Texture vertex… -
Re: Save/Load UV, really, really not working. Ever.
The model exported out of roadkill may have different vertex IDs than the one in Max. I'm not sure how it works, but it's entirely possible it edits them somehow. Which means that copy/paste won't work as doing that relies on the vertex IDs being identical. Save/load or copy/paste UVs relies upon the vertex order being… -
[Topogun] How do I utilize this tool more effectively?
I'm trying to make use of Topogun but I feel very clumsy and slow with it. Just using the basic settings leads to a lot of going back and reworking vertexes. The first .gif is me struggling and the second one is by a professional. What should I be doing to utilize Topogun more effciently? Click. Click. Click. Poly. Select… -

Re: [ July Update] Our Ghosts of War
Yes Epic tends to use a lot vertex animation for stuff like that. Check out the last UE4 stream on youtube about Zen Garden project to see how they animated all the fishes just with vertex animation. I'm pretty sure you could have a very decent looking animation for birds just with vertex anim as well and the performance… -
Re: Repeating Textures & AO Maps...
For what portion? The lightmap is necessary because the outer walls of the scene require more detailed lighting info than vertex coloring alone could provide. Could you use vertex coloring to fake an AO effect? Still seems like just adding it to the lightmap would be simplest at this point. Is there any sort of dynamic… -
Re: I hate maya...
[ QUOTE ] Wings3D is incapable of welding vertices. [/ QUOTE ] Not true, Wings3d is a volume based programm, so there are no (true) one sided surfaces, but it can weld vertexes, as long as the new shape forms a volume. For example the bridge tool welds vertexes, but there is also a feature in object mode that welds…
