this is an intriguing issue that i was going to look into. but from your update you have fixed it. i have done extensive tests measuring values like you have done but in maya. and do not remember running into this issue. so it leads me to beleave it might be something local to maxes obj export. you could open the obj file…
OK so I tried reimporting it with a bunch of different settings, I tried combining the meshes that make up Wraith together and reskinning it, but nothing has worked so far. I also tried re-orienting the root joint incase it's LRA was flipped but I got nothing ... EDIT: FIXED: The local rotation axis of my reverse foot…
Mostly the Symmetry Tool will fix up any issues that arise. I remember it being buggy for stuff like slicing and things way back, but I've not had any issues recently. Warren... just tested and symmetry works for me across an altered workplane and across reference axes (hit the spot in the Items list beside your mesh item,…
I'm not seeing a need to restart the pick code. You can just update the filter based on the dropdown. It even works while you are in pick mode. ( rollout rollPickTest "Pick Test" ( local ddlClass = shape fn PickFilter obj = superclassof obj == ddlClass dropdownlist ddlClassPick "Pick Type" items:#("Shape", "Geometry")…
We use a traditional pipeline, nothing fancy, just the typical realtime stuff from last gen basically. The sun and time-of-day cycle was typically handled by skybox team, while the local gameplay-space lighting was done by the lighting team. We focused on always having gradients of color where we could to get a appealing…
Here's an update on the textures. I've been working a lot on the metal scratches. The magazine still needs a lot more love. I'm also still working on localizing the wear on the polymer parts of the rifle. In the screenshots at the top I'm using the 3Point shader, still trying to learn how to use it cause it looks a little…
Sorry I misunderstood, I thought you wanted to share files between two or more systems without the hassle of manually transferring files. I think Bittorrrent sync would only work well between computers, so technically you could hook up a laptop to your TV and play it onto your TV. The plex interface is limited to your…
I used local xyz bake in 3ds max. I used this because the bake will be superclean compared to other types of normal maps. Earthquake recommended it when making his futuristic gun. Also to sort out any wonky bits I painted them out on the normal map by using the Rectangular Marquee tool in PS and pulling it across over the…
@PyrZen: I have had that problem a couple times. Have you tried using local symmetry instead? @Abidus: Try using z-remesher to a lower polygon count; it looks lumpy and a hard to sculpt on right now. @atomicguppy: I think the borders defining the lips are way too sharp and the nose too straight in the side profile. Started…
Yes. A wacom bamboo is fine. But. It depends on your personal tastes. I prefer to have a large off-brand tablet instead of a small wacom because it allows me to make smoother broad swoops from the shoulder elbow, rather than working more with the wrist. You could ask around your local art circles if anyone has a large…
