Max 2017 Bone Edit Mode Stops Working
So I am doing some rigging in 3ds max 2017 and I'm noticing a particularly annoying occurrence. When using the Bone Tools rollout menu from the Animation panel I can go along working just fine. After a while however I notice that the "Bone Edit Mode" button becomes grayed out and unclickable. Closing and opening the… -
When a project comes along, youuu must W.I.P. it.
Ok, so after GDC I decided it was time to get my shit together and get a page up so I could, you know, get a job, and not have to bow my head in shame every time I met someone. I figured August was a good deadline. My desktop now has these little colonies of files growing in various places. None of which look like a web… -
Is there any tricks to get a low poly cone to shade correctly? (Custom normals? geometry tricks?)
So with vertex normals, when you try to shade a simple cone, you have to use a lot of geometry or a normal map. Because if you try to use just 1 vertex on top, the back side will not shade correctly. And if you use quads with a flat cylinder top, you get these hard smoothing edges from the tris. I know the simplest… -
Re: Post your shaders!?

Directional Bevel - and other Substance Share nodes - Where to find them?

Some of them migrated to artstation and gumroad - but a few of them I am still unable to track down.… -

Re: How much of ZBrush do you guys actually use?
My view of things: (i could be wrong..) Suppose things like extra detailing can still be done, if people like to keep those anatomy muscle memories thriving due to repeated "recreation & brush-up", then it can still be useful. Not a big "make-art-button", guy as others of late have been by promoting it, so i would still… -
Re: Good VFX / Particle System tutorials?
One thing that comes to mind is Simon Trümpler's website. He has some nice breakdowns of various game VFX, but also a ton of other resources! https://simonschreibt.de/ -
Re: Newcomer with lofty goals, hoping Polycount will bring me closer
I think if you like both programming and art your best bet would be on technical art. Technical artist is a guy who serves as a bridge between coders and artists. Daily responsibilities can include writing shaders, coding tools for artists, setting up animation state machines, optimizing game assets, writing technical…
