Re: DOMINANCE WAR III
Hey, welcome to polycount. http://boards.polycount.net/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=258492&an=0&page=1#Post258492 There's already a thread on the Dom War here. To "sign up" for now you pretty much just have to be part of the forum. When the contest starts you can start a thread in the Contests and Challenges forum to show… -
Re: alpha test in max viewport??
in the normal directx sdk you will find all "state" switches. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb172254(VS.85).aspx while this refers to c++. the same keywords are used in .fx (just stripped the prefix) so inside an .fx in the "pass" you would do technique DefaultTechnique{ pass P0 { // state AlphaTestEnable = True;… -
Re: How to fix UDIMs in Unreal Engine?
So this is what I have inside Maya I want my UV channels in Unreal to look the same as this map but for some reason Unreal doesn't recognize it, so it shows that its there, but as you can see on the previews picture it shows that its red. usually the Channel 0 should be same UV map as the textures and the Channel 1 is the… -
Re: In MEL, trying to create a group, if that group already exists delete it.
Thanks for your reply, the file is an empty scene, we were able to figure out my problem. Here is the code that works, I needed to put a switch in there to test the if statement and set it to true or false, would be nice if you could use operators like ! on strings, but whatever this works now. int $switch = 0; string… -
Re: Portfolio Advice
I will bring you a little bit of critic to your video, if you want to: 1:20 the table in front of you is not in an high resolution, so that wouldn't be so good. Until 0:35 i would keep the stuff in it, because after 0:35 your content do not look as impressive as the video starts, because the beginning of your showreel is… -
Re: UV's not being 1:1, but 1:2 ?
Um... Normally you'll have the uv's fill 0-1 space on each axis even if the texture is rectangular. The uv's look distorted in your DCCA but the texture applies just fine as its indexed from 0-1 on each axis anyway. One axis just ends up with a higher texel density. So yeah you'll have some waste on the light map for that… -
Re: Mudbox: Is there a mirror brush? And why are these faces violet?
to mirror a brush just turn on symmetry... to mirror the whole objet use mirrorX... [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQ986aK-xcE[/ame] the violet/blue faces are uvs outside the uv space 0-1... mud will create an extra texture for it... by default the textures outside 0-1 are unloaded to save vram... if you like to load… -
Re: Autodesk 3ds Maxscript Proper Vertex Colors And Texture Coordinate Conversions (For Vertices Only)
In general, map vert coordinates: meshop.getMapVert obj channelID textureVertID vertex colors: meshop.getMapVert obj 0 colorVertID -- multiply by 255 if you don't want 0-1 range Note that vertex indices will match geometry indices only in some cases, there can be many mapVerts per one geometry vertex as well as one mapVert… -
Re: Max UVW Relax breaking objects into separate parts
Also, you can uncheck Normalize Map in the unwrap before projection, so each projection is in real word size, and not trying to fit the 0-1 square. This way, all your projection are homogeneous. You can then layout roughly the uvs in a square and scale to 0-1 square when you are done. Same stuff as check "real-world map… -
Re: Normal map problems
My money is going on your UV's exceeding the 0:1 UV space, or touching it's border. That usually tells MME to use a different texture, but the result more often than not results in faces stretching across the map like this. You can try a Tool: Texture Map: New From UV check to see if any errors pop up. The solution is just…
