Baking Problem in SP (Modelled in Max)
Hi guys. I have a problem. Experienced Max user here, and I was making a little stick grenade, just as a portfolio piece. Trouble is, I cannot for the life of me ge it to bake properly. Shown below are the low poly and high poly, along with the object names. The head section of the high poly has been split into multiple… -
Re: Autodesk 3ds Max Maxscript: Convert Object Position To Proper Bytes For Hex
Another Edit: For those who were wondering, I have solved my problem with the vertex normals. Apparently, they are supposed to be offset from the vertex coordinates themselves. So, I came up with a couple extra Maxscripts to aid me, but this will work for now. Basically, after I create my model, I use a shell modifier on… -
Tips for modeling/unwrapping mass repetitive objects?
First and foremost, Hello! I've been lurking polycount for some time now and finally mustered up the courage to post! Okay, so I modeled a bridge for a project using Unreal with my class, and I figured it would be extremely easy to model and unwrap. So I created a few splines, made the rope from a spline, and had all of… -

question about normal maps with a broken down object on the same UV
trying to learn the normal map workflow a bit better in 3ds max I wanted to try making a house and try using substance painter for the first time. From the tutorials ive read if i want to mess around with generators I'm gonna need normal maps but I'm running into is the workflow for the normal maps I have an House that i… -
zbrush, imported object uvs not working when raising subdivision
Hello, I am having an issue working on a model because I think the mesh is corrupted or there is something wrong I am doing! Ok, I'll explain, I created a mesh in zb sculpted up to subdiv 6 around. then I lower the subdivs, and exported the mesh at subdiv one, did all the uvs in uvlayout, and then reimported the .obj with… -
Re: Some feedback and issues (baking)
1. We've got a bug with padding with diffuse/spec/gloss outputs, but padding should work for normals, ao, and other outputs. Which outputs specifically are you having problems with? 2. PSD is the only supported format for the baker at this time. 3. Re bake groups: Can you give me some more details on exactly what is… -
Re: [3DSMAX] Something similar to Blender Mesh-machine Offset Cut?
Thanks but the Retopo modifier really isn't an option for clean HS topology. I need to keep the geometry the same. The only reason I want to use Blender right now is for the Meshmachine Offset Cut. All the other modeling I do in 3dsmax. There must be some reason for the topology mismatch between Blender and Max. Geometry… -
Re: Noob question about large textures on small objetcs.
Yeah there's never a simple answer in this field. Well i guess I'm back where i started, but in a good way. Good to know that it can be expensive to scale down large textuers even if they're rendered on small objects. I know that just seems like common sense, but you just never know these days. I'll use discrecion when… -
Texturing Large Cylinder Objects (modo)
Hello all, Is the tunnel just to big to texture or am I a complete noob ? No matter how hard I try to get this right, each method has an artefact that I cant resolve. I have tried uv mapping, solid, planar, cylindrical projection etc and I tried the texture replicator with no joy. Planar projection tiling works best but I…
