Hey guys, Trying to create a max script that selects the tread piece, instances it then increase the "% Along path by 0.3 with each one. Any idea how I would go about doing this; can't wrap my head around it >.< Ideally does anybody know a better method to wrap these treads round a spline other than manually placing them?
Well, Valve is apparently announcing 3 things this week. Steambox most likely. After that, who knows!? Maybe just more info on the steam account sharing? Maybe Halflife 3? Here's a countdown (1 minute for the first announcement!) http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/ An article…

I created this scene based on two things: my passion for music and art. Car model is based on Shuichi Nakagawa's 180SX and the scene mood is based on an album cover by Xavier Wulf called Project X (though I decided daylight would look better). If you want to check out the car, here's a…
So I had this idea of making something like the I/O tower. It's chrome, running sandboxes in which red(MCP allies), yellow(hackers/viruses) and green (corrupted files/bugs) can do no harm. My question: is this within limits? The building is 1013 triangles and the lightbeam would be a separate 'prop' of 255 tris. Also, is…
Hi Polycount, I have a doubt about 3d Studio Max. I installed months ago the 2014 version and I notice that I can't see the normals faces flipped like I usually see them on the 2013 version. The faces were black not transparent and that don't help to detect problems with the normals. I have already turned on the Backface…
Hey guys, hoping you can help me out with this. Been having a problem where pressing Alt+H to hide all unselected items no longer works. Ctrl+H (hide selected) and Ctrl+Shift+H (unhide last hidden object) still work. FYI using Maya 2013 in Windows 7 64-bit. I've tried resetting my preferences and reinstalling Maya, but…

Ideally we are looking for someone with experience creating GUI's for UE3 and/or Unity using Scaleform and/or nGui. Although if you are strictly a UI designer we would still be interesting.…

Anyways, I'm trying to render in max 2013 and it starts to make a long beeping noise as i render. still renders fine, but the noise is worrysome. Runs games and other apps just fine. anyone else ever…
Hey there fellow Polycount members! Has been a while since I posted but I think that's due to the fact that we have been insanely busy with wrapping up Episode 1 of "The Other Brothers". If you happen to have an iphone or iPad you will be able to play the game next Thursday which is April, 4th of 2013! We are so very happy…
