Re: Looking for 3D models to upskill my animation skills
Hi Daniel, Not sure what the current prices are, but have you considered to use Mixamo models for this purpose for example? DAZ offers also a whole bunch of premade animation ready characters. And then there is Makehuman. Or Character creation software from Autodesk and Reallusion. Best is imho to model the characters by… -
how can i do a jittering and shifting outline
Hi, I use Autodesk Maya, I want to know how I could make the outline of a model move constantly in order to more accurately simulate a hand painted animation done with a caligraphy brush as opposed to a static line thickness done with a pen. Something like what they did in the game Okami. -
Re: Maya Arnold 6: Insufficient Device memory GTX1060 6GB
I believe this page of Autodesk recommendations can help. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2019/ENU/Maya-Rendering/files/GUID-370E7A71-6570-4277-9C9E-827BEF94FF28-htm.html I am trying all of this now and will report if it works any of these. -
Re: Maxscripts Use .mzp or .exe installer? What about version control?
thats why people like me or Herman created gif animations like these: Autodesk didn't promote the MZP archives themselves so well nor did the community in the past- but hey maybe things will change someday. I am actually more allergic to exe and mse (encrypted) files -
Re: Trying Blender
Well if it has the ability to do everything that happens in max according to the pipelines I'v used before I may as well keep it and learn it. I'm sort of confused about why its free, they have donations of course but AutoDesk have a price system Jamie Dimon would golf clap. -

Re: stone_stairs NORMAL MAP ARTIFACTS,
This is a great tutorial on normal map baking. It goes over how to do an exploded bake. Its for 3ds max but the exploded bake process should be similar in other 3d software. http://cg.tutsplus.com/tutorials/autodesk-3d-studio-max/how-to-bake-a-flawless-normal-map-in-3ds-max/ -
Re: Face weighted normals
Great, thanks! Autodesk - add a great new tool for editing normal maps, but don't put it in the normal map menu, and don't mention it in your what's new pdf. Brilliant. I've never really used the shape node attributes before, but it looks like there's some useful stuff in here. -
Re: Loss of quality in texture
Gamma issue as usual. Max convert your 8bit map to gamma 1 then "rescale" it to gamma 2.2. Gamma is vital for rendering and this is only a display issue, but once again a smart move from autodesk to activate this by default for people who don't know what it is for. Disable gamma/lut correction. -
Re: 3Ds Max, Ohio locations?
