I just do a software render with mental ray using draft or preview settings, so it renders very quickly. I know it's not very interactive, nor is it a real time preview that you should be able to get when working on a model, but at least it lets you see your model properly. Then, when you want to get a good render, just go…
This might not be exactly what you're looking for, but in terms of having local backups I like to use Bvckup2 (https://bvckup2.com/). It's perpetual software, data is saved to your chosen destination (I use a separate portable & encrypted SSD to backup all my personal files, but local network servers might work too),…
Hey, Trying to set up my model in Marmoset but I'm a bit stumped when it comes to setting my Transparency channel. In Painter, I've added some color information to the Transparent parts of my model, but I don't know how to get the same result in Marmoset. In Marmoset all that color is lost and the whole parts completely…
You did a great job for your first asset! If you are looking for some help getting good renders out of Marmoset they have a bunch of tutorials on their website to help with that: https://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn. Look at some of the GDC videos too. However, a lot what is required to get good lighting, rendering, and…
Hi, I'm used negative scale geometry for my asset to UE5, but it's always inverting the normals for the left half. Which is weird because I used the left half as an original when modelling the vehicle. If anything it should be the right half that is failing, yet, it goes the opposite way. Any way... ... I've tried all the…
We're looking for a character modeler/animator to do only our highest priority models. The job and the game is unusual and I hope it should be an interesting and fun task. We're appealing to artists who might already be in the industry and just fancy doing this for the hell of it and the possibility of a fat reward in the…
This is part 2 of our series on MaxScript. I'll cover some simple ways you can start to use maxscript in your every day workflow. Even if you have never touched code before, there are some simple ways you can start using maxscript that will help you automate tasks and remove some of the time wasting steps you have to take…

I understand why this doesn't work - the green box doesn't directly inherit the transforms of the path so it doesn't translate the transforms to the child object (axis stays at origin through the whole path movement), but want to know if there's another way of getting it to work! :) This is the basics of how the scene is…
