I've been having an issue connecting nodes together that have a labeled group of output channels. Material Blend for example has all the input and output channels grouped as "Material", as indicated by the shaded capsule around all the connection points. Nodes that come with Designer seem to work just fine. However, when I…
I always did this type of rounded bevel with the spin tool in Blender. I've also been looking for the equivalent in Maya but so far the closest I've come across is 'edit mesh > wedge'. I hate that it's the one tool you have to be in multi mode to use, also you have to delete the extra faces afterwards :/
I noticed you are calling reloadTexture() inside a for loop. Each time it got called it will loop through all file nodes to set texture path. It's doing that loop over and over which I don't think is what you intended? If you want a fail safe reload you could call that separately just once at the end. I may be wrong but I…
if you think changing the code of all tools working with subD in an app isnt major change to support openSubD in maya than you should think about it a second time... its affecting nearly every tool in the app... its not just throwing in some new code... you have to make every tool working with this new code... its a major…
Andreas, MaterialFunctions let content people build their own nodes. For example I built a node that projects a texture in world space from all 3 axis and blends using the normal. You could also build a node for a special type of shading you want to share with other people. Another useful aspect of functions is being able…

@Far: No idea which Ward you mean, sorry. I tried Aniso-Ward, but it still needs UV's in my case, based upon this code here: http://content.gpwiki.org/index.php/D3DBook:%28Lighting%29_Ward Here is an example in node format what the shader might look like, and the UV edge issue that can pop up ( in UDK for example:…
So it looks like Autohotkey is a winner. I figured out pretty fast how to use it to arc rotate with a custom key, although I had to jump though a few hoops to get there: -when running Max in admin mode, it doesn't seem to pick up Send commands at all. -the following code seemed perfect but for some reason it acts buggy in…
Ok, the stuff i'll show you there are very stupid models, i'm not a 3d artist, i'm a coder but i like graphics and i'm going to do a one-man indie videogame. It will be a Populous\Settlers sorta were the player will control a space colony and I hope to give to it mainly an interesting multiplayer mode rather than a single…
