Offsetting UV islands - how do _you_ do it?
I'm collaborating with a friend on some scripts for 3ds Max (tbh he's doing most of the work, I'm just testing and offering crits!). I'm wondering how others are prepping their UVs for baking? I make all my unique UVs first, then I mirror the model, and duplicate any parts that will have overlapped UVs. Then I pack. I like… -

How much detail do I retail when retopologizing?
Hi guys, this is my first rodeo in retopology, and I'm very lost. I've sculpted a high poly, and now I need to make it less dense so I can easily rig and animate.

Floating Geometry How To

However I watched a couple of threads here and started improving my Max knowlage. So... I would really like some advice on:… -
How essential is PBR theory?
How essential is the PBR theory if I want to just get started on texturing on low poly characters? Is it something I can just pick up along the way, or must I have a thorough understanding of each model to be an effective texturer? I figure it goes without saying I'll be missing out on some advanced concepts at… -
UDK-Swirling particles, how?
Hello everyone, Trying to create a quasar of sorts for use in the skybox, but it's a little flat at the moment, so I thought I'd add some swirling clouds of mass to create some more depth. Now the problem is I need something along the lines of -this example on the UDN- "This is the result of using a point attractor in… -
How would I create this?
Yesterday I completed a "24hr challenge" and my end result was a green lantern power battery sitting atop a column. Pretty basic. Now that its over I want to do more like having energy flow from the inside where the ring is charged. How would I create something like the images below with max/vray? Or is this something I…
