Hi I am going to invest in a Vertical Mouse as I am getting forearm pain, can you offer any advice? Also I was wondering if I should go Wireless? I've been looking through this lot - Insight and this one is catching my eye Evoluent VerticalMouse 4 Right - vertical mouse - 2.4 GHz
I've had that same rendering problem too, but the problem for me was that the vertices weren't welded in those areas, the vertices were just on top of each other.
i rarely weld. it either doesn't weld enough vertices, or it welds too many. instead i use vertex-stitching. you never end up welding too many vertices, although sometimes, the damn thing will decide welding a certain pair of vertices is not a good idea.
Remember that this is a vertical piece, you'll need to work some magic with the FOV to make this work. If you have a rotatable monitor you can use it and then configure your desktop to a vertical one and maybe work UDK or something like it that one to get a proper vertical screenshot with a high FOV. :)
This may be a silly question but is there a way I can render a model in 3ds max that will show the little dots that represent vertices? I'm only doing this for a small simple model to demonstrate a work in progress image. Thanks
You don't need to animate, just select a bone from the list, select a bunch of vertices to attach to that bone and click "assign". That's it, once you have assigned all vertices to some bone you can export (use "Select Unassigned" to search for stray vertices once you're done).
Another problem: When click Tab as usual to select the vertices, my entire model isn't highlighted, only the vertices of a single split group of the model are selected.
