Re: Free HLSL Shader Tutorial Videos
awesome stuff. did a quick skim over and definitely going on my watch list. Liked and subscribed. One thing I'll mention just as suggestion, as non-technical beginner my major hang up is always the maths. I just didn't learn math good in school and never used it since. I think probably for many people it can be… -
Re: Max - Simple Material UI edit?
Hey Haid, I did check out X2 shader, but the problem is, even if you do load up the core files without the custom UI build, they will still get the same funky old Max UI look, so that doesn't help me understand how things are built. I'm also trying to avoid all of those extra Maxscript callbacks too, because it seems even… -

Re: dDo Beta Released
It seems like it's automatic, but the real question here is WHAT does it automate. From my brief test with it, it seems to do the job well when it comes to making something realistic, and it allows you to tweak your results to a pretty good degree. I'm just wondering if it's possible to fully control the process. Can I… -
Re: Shader - Fresnel Warp
Hey Drew, cheers for the snippet, it looks good on my end (just had to change a few things around to compensate for Max :P ) Looking back on the documents and Source shader, it seems like there is some extra magic going on? Here is what I mean: Just to be clear, you code worked perfectly fine with the Fresnel Warping… -
Re: MaxScript-Maintaining Selection Order
Hi, as far as I know the only way to keep track of the sub-object selection order is to use callbacks, in particular node-event callbacks introduced in 3ds Max 2009. For backward compatibility I never used them, the limited workaround could be to run a component like the PainterInterface, the MouseTrack function, or maybe… -
Re: PBR material reflectance / IOR / fresnel database? + question about sRGB and Linear interpretations
As far as Substance (and anything sensible) goes... Any channel that's representing a number rather than a colour (roughness, normal etc) will be linear, anything that's perceptual (basecolor, emissive etc) will usually be sRGB sRGB channels are converted to linear space in the Shader so all the maths can be done nicely,… -
Re: Maya - Fill an area with polygons? Bookshelf
Thanks for the reply :) Duplicate along path is fantastic for fences etc, but ultimately I'm not sure it would be the best solution for this type of job. Unfortunately there are a lot of shelves to be filled and I think instead of manually doing it like I always do (I usually have to do this a lot on projects) I'm hoping… -
Re: The Art of Rage
Yeah but im hoping you were aware of the large amount of bugs problems and glitches that followed. i still cant get a refund even to this day, personally i love what the modelers made and i wont blame them its the shitty code/scripters. the graphics bugged to hell even when i found out how to run it faster 25fps.The whole… -
Re: The Valve Handbook!
I learned Assembler programming in another life. After a couple of years of that and C I realized it wasn't for me, and I got into art. The principles of programming are all more or less the same. So while I can no longer program in the modern languages like C++ and those, I still know the principles. It comes in handy.…
