3DS Max's Chamfer's "Smooth to Adjacent" gives perfect face weighted normals but doesn't export
Enabling "Smooth to Adjacent" in 3DS Max 2016's Chamfer modifier gives you perfect face weighted normals (1), however, adding any modifier on top or exporting to fbx breaks it and smooths only the chamfers (2). Collapsing the stack smooths the whole object (3). Has anyone found a solution for this? Using a plugin is fine… -
Answered: Color ID is Empty
Apologies if I am missing something basic here, but I just bought QS2 yesterday and while so far almost everything is working as expected, I am having issues with the Color ID script for Maya. First off, if I try and use it as directed I get the an error reading I read on another thread to drop the reload argument, so I… -
Mel Script to Toggle Edge Constraint
I have no idea how to check the current state the contraints are in, so as to make some simple if commands, and assign this script to a hotkey.

Re: Is it just me or is Autodesk putting 3DS Max aside?
Where do you get THAT info from. Performancewise Max 2016 and Max 2017 are top, with Max 2017 mesh performance skyrocketed . Featurewise those releases include a lot too, but still the impression that they pump a lot more resources into Maya might not be too wrong. Though the latter seems to have got some serious low blow… -

Re: Critique wanted! Stylized Sheriff's office
I love it! :) But I'd recommend to make the shape of the ground less polygonal and give it some height. The scene endes abrupt. you can blur it like here: https://cdnb.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/000/111/611/large/nick-duarte-land-diorama001-final.jpg?1403494839 or break the shape abit like here:…
