Re: learning maya for max users
Just to add to that, here's some more notes I made in a separate text file that aren't sorted, and probably isn't as helpful, but maybe you'll still find them useful: elements = shells For move/rotate/scale hold W/E/R and lmb to bring up the manipulators marking menu if part of a mesh is deleted via edges the resulting geo… -
Open GL vs Direct X for mapping in maya.
I was wondering whenever i try bake my maps is there anyway to bake a tagent based normal and an object based normal at the same time using transfer maps? or do i have to go through baking object by object as tangent then re go through every object after changing maya from open gl or direct x if thats even possible? -

Re: 3D Studio max spline control

Re: [WIP] Ghibli Kiki's delivery service, inspired enviroment UH Main project
Great start and great choice of project! * Lock in your cameras and lighting before doing more prop work. * Than work from biggest objects (on-screen size) to smallest. It will save you a ton of time polishing assets that will never get seen that close. I'm sure you've got some good ref but here's more just in case:… -
Re: UV layout for games
Depends of your object : it's an important object ? Does it need several different diffuse ? Show it, you can't decide what to do without determining what is the purpose of the object (quest object or just a decoration ?). In your case, I guess the best optimized case would be the 256 UV overlapped + the lightmap like your…
