Re: Constraining bones to verts
You apply the skin modifier, then add the bones. I think the help file has a good tutorial in the character section, but would be hard to find if you didn't know the name of the modifier, which is "skin". =) If you're using BiPed you can also use Physique, which is like skin but with 50% more awesome, and 5% more crash... -
Re: actors, skeletal meshes, trigger volumes, blueprint
Alright, here it is. I didn't actually make fancy doors and whatnot, this is more about the idea behind this whole thing. I'll try to describe what happens on each shot, and I'll also provide a video showing it working, plus the source files for the project so you can download it and examine yourself. It requires 4.16.1 or… -
Re: Max Script Question
Yes... oh gawd yes has it helped me. One thing to keep in mind is, will writing this script take more time then all the time it will save? In other words if its just to get you out of doing a task once and you'll never use it again, probably suck it up and do it manually unless its super easy to crank out. Before you sit… -
Re: Reallusion's 3D Character Design Contest
Reply by EGGO · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Reallusion's 3D Character Design Contest 2016Have a problem here: can't import back to creature creator as a morph modified .obj from zbrush it says: The base and target characters are incompatible. I didn't delete any polygons and didn't added any new, i've made some polygroups and did just basic scilpture - no topology modified and get this. May be some specific… -
Re: Using face weighted normals for normal map baking
@igi Thanks for letting me know. Even though it's a redundant technique, I've just managed to get it to work in Blender. In case anybody's wondering: Make sure to add the Edge Split modifier to the high poly between the Bevel and Data Transfer modifiers. Oh, and set the high poly to smooth shading (It has no difference for… -
Re: Optimization of polys
If you using max2009 and have installed Creativity Extension try with ProOptimizer modifier. Set the value of 75% and wait to see what the result will be. This ProOptimizer modifier is PolyCruncher, but built-in max. If nothing happen tray to use Prooptimizer(or PolyCruncher) with small value of optimisation (for example… -
Re: Modeling a basketball net - techniques?
* Model one diamond shaped loop with a knot at the top and one of the sides so it will tile horizontally and vertically. * Copy it in a straight strip horizontally and then copy the strip vertically. * Use bend modifiers to make a cylinder. * Stretch the top row of loops, because basketball nets do that. Add subdivisions… -
Re: Rendering Lighting Error? 3DS Max
The UVs look OK, and the modifier stack isn't bad. The material you have clicked on (white outline) is not being used in the scene, because it does not have triangles in the corners of the preview sphere. I bet the material is the blue one to the left? The Edit Normals modifier needs to be selected, for the normals to… -
Re: Photoshop - space rivets along spline (including normal map data)
cool Alec, thats good to know, I had always said to me why there is not some sort of path modifier, spacing / array tool in PS it is reaally useful, specially for those kind of repetitive tasks. Actually there is a lot more of 3ds max modifiers/functions I will actually like to see implemented in PS...but for the time… -
Re: Vertex blending and alpha maps for game terrain
To get a real time preview of the vertex blending in max i'd say your best bet is shaderfx. http://www.lumonix.biz/shaderfx.html There is a tut on texture blending at the bottom of that page. One of the problems with max's vertex paint is you cant work on the seperate rgb channels like you can in photoshop, I would suggest…
