Re: MaxScript Knowledge and Question Thread
McGreed, sourceNodes array is defined incorrectly. But other than that it works for me. However, to me it seems the script is too complex for what you are trying to do, and if sourceNodes[1] is scaled you get some odd behavior. The code below gives me the same result as your script when sourceNode[1] isn't scaled, but I… -
Re: Geo-loop
It works if you cap it first. Edit: So what i thought was actually true. Once you collapse vertices the original center of the circle is lost. The center calculated from all vertices at least. How do you construct a cicle without knowing the correct centerpoint? Some testing code: ( --If there is anything selected? local… -
-- Toronto Polycount Meetup! February 9th --
That's right my friends, its time for another beer, games and beer games. This time its a bit of a special occasion though, our good and loyal friend Lucas is leaving us for greener pastures (aka a new job). Even if you don't know Lucas you should still come out and have a drink or two with your local game devs! These… -
Re: Sketchbook: Frank Polygon
Subdivision sketch: Hemispherical helmet. This is a brief look at a few basic strategies for routing topology around cut outs and panel lines on spherical [and ellipsoid] surfaces. Note: there's several different ways to structure spherical geometry. Since this write-up is specific to basic subdivision modeling only basic… -
Seattle Eastside Sketchgroup
Hey All So a few years ago, after one of the polycount meetups, a few guys and I started a sketch group. of local PC members. It was a fantastic chance for us all to share our goals and objectives in a non judgmental environment. We learned a lot, about not only ways of working, but ways of thinking as well. Topics and… -
The American Astronaut... movie.
In my local mom/pop video store lay a rack with employee picks of the month. One of the movies was The American Astronaut. Absolutely bizarre, and creative it was. One of my most favorite movies to see recently. Its a space story, with a rock and roll undertone. Yes, sometimes they even break out into song and dance. The… -
Re: Buying framed prints.
If there are Michaels or AC Moore craft stores near you, go to one of those and see what size frames they have as default. Custom Framing is incredibly expensive, so, since you have control over the print, you can instead find a frame size that comes standard (ie 24x36) and then print to that size. Kinkos does an ok job… -
Re: would a cheap prime lens improve photogrammetry on 24mp cam?
Step 1 : do some research, meaning reading manufacturer info and user reviews. Step 2 : do the thing you want to do with the resources you have at your disposal. Step 3 : if you aren't satisfied with the results, post them online for people to have a look and give you advice based on their own experience, or bring them to… -
Re: Tech Artist - What are you working on: FOREVER Edition!
New stuff in the works for Krita. Nothing super interesting or sexy, just a plugin to do edge padding for UV borders. This image shows the result of a first pass in a two-pass algorithm to find the Euclidean distance transform of a binary image (which I get from the image's alpha channel.) I'll use the result of this and… -
Re: Moving uv's to 0-1 space in 3DS Max
Easy, here's a quick bare-bones maxscript I whipped up in 15 mins to do that, but I currently have no time to support it - it has no error catching like if you forgot to select the mesh or automatic poly to mesh conversion, etc. Make sure your mesh is an editable mesh (not editable poly), and select just the single mesh,…
