I propose Rexel Workflow when it comes to setting texel density while unwrapping. This workflow is for static images and is camera-dependent. Rexel is the final rendered pixel.Let’s say we have a scene with a vehicle model: an airplane with detailed objects and a few cameras, some distant for an overall view, but some for…
Yes and no. How many sides you use depends on a case by case basis; budgets, scale of the object, how often is it used, how significant is it, if animation hides some roughness, and so on. But one rule of thumb I use is to use about 150% the amount of sides for 200% the size. Here's a mockup based around the base circle…
Hi!So I've been sculpting this character and I'm using the MetaHuman topology. I now want to project a 3D Scan Store basemesh for the body and for the head, TexturingXYZ. My MetaHuman basemesh is at real scale, that is 180 cm tall whereas the Scan Store mesh is 1.8 cm tall.What is really the correct workflow you all use…
Arrimus points the advantage of a program as MoI3d and he
explains well what you are asking me. But it seems he lost soon interest as it
is the part 1 of only 1 tutorial with nurbs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5r3xc_Go3o&t=185s I’m trying myself to understand this workflow. I’m simply
curious if these kind of “easy”…
Indeed, they're great when trying to reference stuff that's either 'hidden' or difficult to gauge via just eyeballing sucky looking pics so these are routinely sources I tend to make use of, among others: Prime Portal - Armoured Vehicles Wikipedia - Panzerkampfwagen VI, Tiger I (H1), SdKfz. 181. The Tank Museum Bovington…
I've been pulling my hair out over trying to include in Maxscript from a variable. I want my rollout to contain an arbitrary amount of subrollouts from external files, here's what I've got so far try(destroyDialog testings)catch()rootFolder = getFileNamePath (getThisScriptFilename())sourceFolder = rootFolder +…
@rexus and @BeardedMike The camera is upside down. That may be why the shadows are on the top. Substance imported the model upside down. You see the model the correct way up, BUT to do so the camera is upside down currently. I baked solely in substance, just pulled the high's into max to name the different pieces to use…
I'm not sure, its just the way I was always taught (MLA format? don't have my handbook handy) - maybe its a personal preference too. It can go either way I think, just depends on how you phrase the question and how you answer it. Its a minor issue really, probably not worth splitting hairs over. "What positions has this…
There are plenty of coin models available but I want a specific style, the 1859-1907 Indian Head Penny with a ridged side. I'd like the year to be 1866 specifically and for the geometry to match the wikipedia of that design. I don't want just an image mapped flat surface.…
The last couple of days i`ve been trying to put limits on an orientation constraint but i can`t seem to get a good way to do this. First off i`m basically making this setup http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1021761&postcount=17 (also tnx Vig for the awesome tutorial :) ) So what i want to do is limit the…
