Re: Maya depth shader controlled by ramp?
I got a request for the example scene I posted pics of above, also my prior link is broken since I've changed hosts since then. Here's the link for the example scene. To change the near/far limits just move the bigger planes. To change the falloff you have to select the camera shaped controller and change it's Falloff… -
Re: MD5 format explained.
Aside from an SDK, you should try to keep in communication with the person that's responsible for handling your animations, and don't go too far without having them put stuff into the game incrementally. Worst thing you can do is make a bunch of stuff that goes unused because it doesn't work ingame. The system uses… -
Re: today's ingame rigs and 3ds skin,rigging
For all its faults biped had some really easy twist bones to use. Custom twists aren't hard to set up but for someone trying to figure out what they are or just wants to get something working with minimal fuss, biped might be a good example to look at. It allows for up to 10 twists (total overkill) in the upper arm,… -
Re: 2 custom applications.
Done ;) and the new feature you asked for is in there too. Here's the code generated for now: EDIT: That tutorial has pretty big images, this is a better example: Here's the HTML clone: www.gameartist.nl/tutorials/old 1: Old chair i found on flickr. I like the leeves on it and the round shapes. 2: The top side of the… -
Re: Heniu
I have to disagree. I know I had to work on bigger shapes, I can see that myself now in older works but this guy here, he is supposed to be average. Google Ben Affleck images for example. Look at neck, arms, face. You are just used to watching way too many hero type ultra muscled cyber ape faced badasses. His head is not a… -
Re: 10 Texture Techniques
I'm not saying the masks themselves cause data issues a few hundred gray scale masks wouldn't impact the PSD's size that much. But what they are masking out is still stored in the PSD, even if it extends past the canvas cut off lines. Example: http://www.vigville.com/forum_images/ExsevisExcess.jpg If I'm only going to use… -
Re: Project Resurrection
A piece of character design you should address is silhouette. All character designs, within a unique character driven environment, must have their own profile so that they are instantly recognizable. The main cast from The Simpsons is a great example as are many of the classic cartoons. This illustrates what I mean.… -
Re: Looking for new music?
Rox: Ah. Miscommunication and righteousness on my part. I apologise :) . I can relate to what you're saying with that, because sometimes you just need something to let your brain do other things, without needing that emotional connection. Check out Ghosts I-IV by Nine Inch Nails. Perfect stuff for that kinda thing. 'Music… -
Re: Is it worth the time? the evolution debate
I agree with you, most of the time there is no doubt about this. But Lennox for example writes a couple of pages about theistic evolution and the compatibility of mental attributes like purpose and materialistic processes. So I don't think people like him need creationism to keep those fuzzy religious feelings. On the… -
Re: Can I get some 3ds max to Modo tips?
Re: tools most tools are by default click to activate. You can change tools to auto-activate though, so simply selecting the tool will make it active. This can be done from the tool pipeline, which by default layout is on the right hand side under the "lists" tab. That's also a good way to check what tools / constraints…
