Re: Maya 2010 polySelect -edgeRingPattern; does not work?
Our technical artist sorted it out for me. string $edges[] = `ls -sl -fl -l`; for( $e=0; $e<`size($edges)`; $e += 2 ) { string $buffer[]; tokenize $edges[$e] "[]" $buffer; string $start = $buffer[1]; tokenize $edges[$e + 1] "[]" $buffer; string $end = $buffer[1]; polySelect -rpt ((int)$start) ((int)$end); } -
Re: Dota 2 - Workshop Thread
@Gamer_Alien: You should always have smooth shading on, if you want an edge sharp, you should mark edges as so (with the desired edge selected, 'Ctrl+E' > 'Mark Sharp') and use the 'Edge split modifier' with 'Edge Angle' unchecked and 'Sharp Edges' checked instead. When subdividing the base model into the highpoly, use… -
Re: [WIP] - Sci-FI Terminal/ATM - Begginer looking for advivce
Use more geo. Unless it's for an low poly game or it's really small on the screen I would use more geo to round the edges, define the chamfered edges and give more details. Also you missed a lot of details (e.g. at the top on the side is a part in the concept which is missing in your version) and didn't got the shapes… -
Re: [3DSMax] Any way to copy Maya's smart selection?
I think I would generalize it. Increasing the selection range should affect the selection of objects/components in general, not just the Editable Poly preview selection range. Also if you dissect maya's selection behavior it's a bit smarter than just having selection range. E.g. if you are in vertex/edge mode and hover… -
Re: Hellhound Process - Junior work
hey, great to see your progress 👍️ Regarding the texturing, I think you could make the bone spikes more readable by reducing/controlling the noise/normal details and adding some gradients along spikes/teeth, directions (e.g. seperate planes pointing downwards) and highlights (edges, maybe most smooth from usage). Right now… -

[3ds Max] How to get rid of green UV seams?
I quite have blender experience and i started to use 3ds max. Today i tried to UV unwrap my model and i put some seams at wrong edges and i realized that after i peeled the object. Then i wanted to delete some seams which actually indicated as green edges. I couldnt make it with alt clicking or something else. The blue… -
(Solved) Maya Import - Hard or Soft but never mixed?
Hi, This seems like something that should be so very simple I am afraid of asking here. But how does one preserve hard edge/soft edges across export and import? Somehow for a simple export of following model, Maya Import will convert all soft edges to hard edges. Sure, it preserves the normal just fine, but I lost all the… -
Re: Combining creased objects in Maya
Tried fiddling with this problem for a bit. I don't use crease edges often but when I do they tend to be unstable and get clobbered when combining complex meshes together. Apparently you can't use Select Using Constraints and isolate only crease edges (unless I was using the tool wrong) so I made a workaround script that…
