Maya 2018 - Cannot locate Soft/Harden edges tool
Hello! I am currently following a tutorial from a Patreon artist I follow. He is using a tool called Soft/Harden Edges which is under Mesh Display. I am using Maya 2018 and I can only see it as Soften Edge or Harden Edge. The Soften Edge tool seems to soften it too much more so than in the tutorial. I know there is a… -
Constraints to edge in Maya?
I did this in Max, but want to know how I can do this in Maya Loop select the edges Move the edges up with constraints to edge turn on. here is what happend when I do this in Maya, cuz I don't know where the constraints to edge is in Maya. The OMToolbox's slide tool is kinda weird to use. So any Maya users know how to do… -
Re: Baking Artifacts (90 degrees on curved edges) - Help me understand proper high-low modelling
There's at least three separate types of baking artifacts present in each of the examples above: * Pixelation / jagged aliasing in the normal textures. * Bright highlights around UV seams and hard edges. * Dark shadows around the inner and outer edges of shapes. * Wavy edges around around the outsides of the cylinders.… -
Re: Maya, Can't bevel/copy and edge
it's the ngon causing your problem, maya doesn't know how it should be making the new edge(such as how many edges and verts should be in it) just select the edge ring and do a connect, if you need it to match the exact angle of the pre-existing edge, just do a edge slide, and slide it right into the orgianl edge, than pull… -
Poly modeling: hard edges on round objects
Hey forum, new member here. I'm relatively new to modeling, only a year of on/off experience working on maya. I'm practicing some hard surface modeling with one of my favorite characters, Samus Aran. Here's my initial concept drawing: Attachment not found. Attachment not found. Attachment not found. I only have the helmet… -
3ds max - Equalise surface edges
Hi people, I am doing some modelling in max (Vehicle) and I have a question regarding making a mesh which has equal spacing between edges. I have blocked in the form using plane/edge extrusion to get the overall silhouette but now I have realised that when I subdivide the surface, poly distribution will be unequal (banding… -
GPU Baker | Curvature on edges is sometimes not detected at all + cavity is sometimes inverted
Hey there! First of all, congratulations on 2.0 release! The additions to the Suite are truly monumental and the performance is incredible! Unfortunately, I'm still having huge trouble with the most troublesome area from 1.8, though. Specifically, getting proper curvature out of hard-edged lowpoly objects with UV seams on… -
Re: extruding edges in 3dsmax for lowpoly fur
Yeap, you can only weld open geometry to open geometry. You can't weld open to closed. It would create illegal geometry and cause all kinds of problems. Maya lets you do this and there is no end to the problems it causes. When you extrude an edge in max you actually get two edges and three polys. Its the same as chamfering… -
AWAITING CONFIRMATION: Defining Edges
Quick question for everyone: What are the things NDO and DDO look at to determine where the edges of a model are? So that, for example, masks can start and end near the edges of the model for something like a light scratch mask? I'm having trouble getting DDO to recognize the edges on a simple model I'm testing with, and… -
Maxscript - Detect Twisted Edge?
I've been trying to figure this one out, without a surefire way... Basically I have 4 verts, and I am creating a Face from those. Alot of the time the face is created right, but sometimes it gets created wrong and the new edge appears twisted. Like if you extruded an edge, then rotated it 180, so the verts are on opposite…
