Re: Answered: Multi Groups - See All
Hey Darkedge! You're seeing them as separate objects because they're not combined as one object in your scene. 3DO treats individual objects as separate components to paint on. :smile: You'll need to combine your meshes into a single object and export them out again in order to see your character's body as one piece. -
Re: 3d packages and formats?
Lightwave .lws - Scene file .lwo - Object file I wish Max and Maya handled object loading in the same way as Lightwave, it's nice to open lots of objects at once and all have them retain their original file structure, you can swap between objects without having to close one and load another. -
Re: how to animate a chain on a chainsaw
I attached a max file (2017) as an example. 1. Uses Path Constraint (not Spline IK) 2. Each object has a Look At target to the object in front of it. 3. Each object's Look At upnode is set to the same look at target. 4. There is one extra object that the last can target. -
Re: UV layout
Awesome information here. This is how I ended up with the body. All islands properly oriented. I made on texture for the whole body, one for the helmet and one for the back pack, as they are separated objects. I wanted to keep the armour parts in one island as much as possible and that explains why it's not more dense for… -
Re: Environment Art Beginner Questions
Duplicate your low-poly object but first you should triangulate it if you are going to import it in some game engine but if not then there is no need for it, but you need to duplicate your low-poly object and that duplicated object scale just a bit so it covers your whole low-poly object, and dont scale your low poly for… -
Re: Mesh Building and Unwrapping Help [Specific]
1 texture = 1 draw call = win I actually haven't tried it yet myself but I've been in situations where it would of been a life saver: smart objects. rather than try to explain it just try messing around with smart objects in photoshop to see what they do: layer > smart objects > convert to smart object -
Studio Max Camera Orbit
Hi all, maybe someone knows the answer to this one. In 3dsmax, I need to animate a camera orbiting around an object, but, the object needs to be fixed in place on screen-left. If I make a Path Constraint, then the object is centered on the screen. Basically, what I need is the same thing as if you have the object selected,… -
Unreal 4 Mipmap or Unreal Bug?
Anyone ever have this situation where sometimes some objects (in most cases a rigged object) starts getting some pretty bad texture quality as you step back a few steps and the closer you get the better it is...then once you go into the content browser and check the texture map - the problem goes away? I managed to even… -
[PAID] Looking for a technical artist to recreate effect in Unity
I want to recreate the effect shown here in this public Patreon post. I have two additively loaded scenes, one of which should be revealed by some shape (sphere, box, pyramid, or any mesh, ideally), and the other should disappear by this same shape. The shader shown in the post requires all objects to have a specific… -

Upcoming bug fixes: a. automatically move pivot point of collision meshes tied to object to objects pivot point location before export. right now you must manually set the…
