I've only recently started to use 3DS Max to unwrap my models (I do most of my actual modeling in Swift 3D) so I can properly texture my models. Because I have no decent image software (and no mouse either, just a controller) I was hoping someone might know of some tutorials on how to render some decent texture effects…

I also briefly cover how to use the simplebaker to bake out textures to use as a decal. There's a lot of content in there and if you are only interested in specific parts of the…

I know the basics but I feel like my main problem is taking those basics and turning them into a realistic looking material. Does…

As a thank you to all you guys for all the support! This is a limited time deal though so take advantage of a time to never have to worry about learning either Maya or Max…

Part 1 Part 2: This tutorial goes into the vertical stretch fix mentioned in Part 1, expands the shader to include a bottom hemisphere, and addresses a question I received regarding how to lower (or raise) the horizon. Reflected Sky For a sky dome that only has one hemisphere, or has the bottom reflect…

The problem is that whenever I am done with making an environment I usually just isolate the prop(s) in the scene and either delete or make…
