Re: (3ds Max) Normal map issue - incorrect shading on model
You might need to set your smoothing groups to 1, apply the edit poly modifier and collapse the stack. Sometimes I get horrible shading on imported meshes and that's the only thing that will actually force it to recalculate. If you mirrored the model, more than likely the UV's are stacked on top of each other. You should… -
Re: Which software is it better to model with?
The one you are more comfortable with will usually be the best option. Of course that doesn't mean you should stick to XYZ shitty workflow and never branch out but... The time it takes to ramp up in another persons/studios preferred app will easily eclipse the time it takes to just bust out the model in something you're… -

Modeling Environments for Games Workflow
Hi, Everytime I want to start a new project, I always end up giving up because I never know how to start or how to proceed. I did a bunch of tutorials (Youtube and Digital Tutors) where I had to model (sculpt) different assets (LP and HP) and these tutorials were okay because I learned how to use 3DSmax and Zbrush (a… -

Starting the BASE MESH
If I were to a full naked male sculpt what would be the most effective way of starting the base mesh? From my understanding when you create the base mesh the polygons should be fairly spread throughout the whole model so some parts of the model will not be more decimated than others. Here is my knowledge of ways of… -
Buying new laptop
I was just wondering if anyone had any good recommendations for a laptop that would support all the latest games and be powerful enough to use 3dsmax or any other major 3d app. Are graphics cards for laptops less powerful in general? Would it be easy to upgrade in the long run? I intend to use this as a my main machine ,… -
Re: Visible normal map seams in 3DS Max's viewport
I'm not sure if Xoliul shader works in newer versions of 3dsmax, they kept changing subtle ways the viewport rendered and I'm not sure if Xoliul was updated? So try sticking to the 3dsmax viewport in realistic mode, I know normal maps will display in that (unless you find something that says Xoliul shader works in your…
