Re: Normal Map wont keep alpha after saving package
Well of course you are loosing the alpha. TC_Normalmap is DXT1, no alpha. You could use something like TC_NotmalmapAlpha, but I'm going to tell you right now that the quality of the normals is going to suck. Try separating your alpha and normals and using TC_NormalmapUncompressed for the normals, or alternatively you could… -
Re: refBoard! Nifty little reference viewer.
Great tool! Thanks for making it and sharing with the community :) I'm just getting around to trying it out now... Is dragging the bottom right corner of an image's window supposed to resize the window and the image it contains? If so, that's not working for me on OSX 10.7.5. If not, then that's unexpected behavior for me.… -
Re: FG and GI maps 3dsmax??
1. FG map relies on GI to get information about multiple light bounces so yes you need to recompute FG after changing GI. But you don't have to recompute GI if you just made changes to FG. 2. Both FG and GI maps contain light intensity and color. So if you change some shader parameters saved maps wouldn't reflect those… -

Re: The Polycount Art Project (ATTENTION: Lurkers, Professionals and Students)
What matters is the art and not the artist. ;) That's why i said that this thread will only lead to ass kissing and to "who's who" as crazyfingers has put it, since it doesn't contain any art and not even specific details about the project. There's no need to ask if there's interest in this either as the answer is pretty… -
Re: Max Viewport lighting issue
Oh sorry, I thought you knew where to find this. Hit the [+] in the top right of a viewport, then pick Configuration. Go to the Lighting & Shadows tab, the top left part that says "Illuminate Scene with:" contains the setting. You know, I always tell my students not to mess with settings they don't understand yet, so they… -
Re: Mel scripting help: moving a bunch of verts to a locator
most code built on python 2.6.4 which is what previous versions of maya uses, will work on 2.7.3 which contains mostly minar changes to python Saf. it is 2.x to 3.x that you got to watch out for in python, which is why a lot of people never moved away from 2.x. Also if the upgrade to 2014 breaks parts of your workflow, why… -
Re: 3DSM 7 - Duplicating UV channels?
Not that I know Max. But setting current channel to 2 probably doesn't "reset" anything, it just doesn't contain anything yet. The way it's done in Maya is selecting the UVs you want to copy in channel 1. Then in the UV-editor menu's you use the "Duplicate UVs" option, and set it to duplicate the UVs to channel 2. Oh and I… -
Re: [TUTORIAL] Weapon creation (M37 Ithaca)
impressive texturing Vous, same goes for Break! Cannot really give good critic since I am pretty new at texturing myself. Anyway, it seems I cannot get Render to texture to work out. Can someone take a look at my file, which contains the high and low poly, and see if they can bake the maps inside of max ?… -
Re: Gears2 Environment Art
I love all the details that you guys sculpt/model there at Epic...it honestly makes me excited (sorry...I cant contain my inner geek.) Out of curiosity, and I'm sure this has been asked somewhere in this thread, but how much time do you get to model something like the truck a couple of pages back? It feels like the engine…
