I'm using 3ds max 2009 to projection render my hipoly model onto my low poly model. Here is my 3ds generated normal map inside of 3D coat, the error is nearly identical to the results inside of my engine. The torso is a single smoothing group consisting of two uv islands. Here is the normal map. This is not mirrored. The…
Hi fellas, decided to show my latest wip here. I started working on this model few days ago and I´d really like to finish this one, because I´m pretty satisfied with the progress. Here´s a detail on the face: The limit is 6 000 tris. Right now it´s 3070 (including some redundant tris around the mirroring) I hope you like…

Didn't Microsoft get "Caught" for using pirated software? I believe in their case it was for an audio file. But the meta data in the exported file proved that it was created by a pirated version of the audio editor. After a quick google search, you can see they did:…
Please make some movie showing those functions. It looks really cool. I recently got back to max 2009 and would be cool to make it stronger with few scripts like that. Especially since it can do more stuff than TexTools. You have got so many buttons and stuff in there but no way to read/watch what those do ;p
