Re: modelling shirt collars
Modelling it should be easy, I would have thought. Flat plane, cut and angle in a V shape over on itself, Bend modifier around the neck, Shell modifier to give it some depth, Turbosmooth to make it look organic. Then if it looks too sharp and angular, remove some polys from the control mesh until it's more organic. If it's… -
Re: need a cut tool that keeps normals as they were pre-cut
Sorry, I don't know any advanced cut tool. But If I have to modify mesh after normal map generation I usualy edit normals by myself (yes its quite nonaccurate, but it woks most time). In max there is Edit Normals modifier (must be last thing before export, because every operation will ruin it). And I believe that Maya has… -
Re: Why isn't parallax mapping used more?
Its not like displacement... Parallax is a visual trick that does not modify the geometry, and therefore the silhouette neither. Know those "3d stickers" in real life? Its kinda like those. Displacement modifies the position of vertices. If tessellation is enabled too, it creates new vertices on the fly and offsets those… -
Re: Nvidia hairworks VS haircard
AMD's TressFX is more popular due to being open source and because the Playstation and Xbox consoles being built on AMD tech. Most companies modify it to suit their needs such as with Horizon Zero Dawn, or certain squareEnix games (though they call their modified version of it 'Pure Hair'). The companies that use Hairworks… -
Re: Exporting wire paramters from Max to Unity or Unreal
I have no idea if they can be imported and digested by unity somehow, I kinda doubt it. I think what you actually want is a way to turn wire parameters into c#. But I don't think that exists yet. I'm sure you know, character controllers and camera scripts have actual code you'd want to look at as they modify the transforms… -
Re: Reduce internal loops and keep the same normal map?
You probably won't have any issue with the triangulation being different if you do the same step every time. but it might just be quicker to replace the bricks with a substitute modifier. If I grasp the current state of what you have in front of you. I think it would work like, make your geo changes to the "original",… -

Re: Silo's selection in 3dsmax
Broken link. There is paint selection for faces and a soft select paint option inside of the edit poly modifier but they don't work quite the same as silo's, they have to be toggled on and off, which can be done through shortcuts to make it a little easier to use... Paint selection is found in the drop down for the… -
Re: Maya vs Modo
Maya have a strange behaviour, you can adjust parameters interactively in the Attribute Editor: Or in the Channel Box: You can also take a look at Cinema 4D, if you also going to use Maya (as like modo lacks proper baking functions): http://www.mattrittman.com/3d-modeling/migrating-from-3ds-max-to-cinema-4d It's very fast… -
Re: How to model a curved/twisted zip?
Isn't the Twist parameter of PathDeform working for you? What about using a Twist modifier on all of the segments before you PathDeform? You could use the Clone modifier to control your segments and use Rotate to turn the segments to get the same kind of effect as the Twist parameter.…
