Re: Working normal thief for 3ds max 2018 ?
It worked like a charm - you are a star! And yeah, having it work on select geometry only would be the logical next step I guess. The script on mixescript[...] uses subobjectLevel = 1 vertarray = #{} vertarray = polyop.getVertSelection obj if vertarray.numberSet == 0 then -- no selection, select all (… -
Re: LOW-POLY ART
Uh, I'm working in Blender, so in a far more confusing and roundabout way than everyone else, I suspect. I'm just creating a high-poly, then a low poly cylinder, unwrapping the cylinder (I'm quite careful about straightening UVs), selecting both models then just selecting bake>normals>tangent>selected to active. I was told… -
Re: Maya perspective cam too sensitive, sometimes!
I think it's the issue Stradigos is describing. The F-key for Frame Selection will zoom the current camera to fully show your currently selected object (or entire scene if nothing is selected?). This also seems to center the cameras arbitrary rotational point to the center of that objects bounding box. Also it seems to… -
Re: ShaderFX TGA PBL shader
Hello This is my first post here and I really appreciate any feed back. I have the latest version of Maya and I get this error: assignCreatedShader "ShaderfxShader" "" ShaderfxShader1 "pCube1"; sets -e -forceElement ShaderfxShader1SG; // ShaderfxShader1SG // // Created shader ShaderfxShader and assigned to the selected… -
Re: Problem with ward orientation and scale
Ok, Delete the skin modifier. Create a cube obj, add an edit poly modifier to it. With cube edit poly selected, select all of the polygons of the box (but not your ward) and delete them. Now select 'affect pivot only' and hit center to obj, and align to world. Reskin. (creating the cube gave you an obj with no scale or… -
Re: Optimization of polys
I did initially try breaking up the model like you said, but unfortunately it's so high poly that even when I tried selecting using elements it only selected a few polys, and it would take 5-10 minutes to process I even did anything. Then, on top of that, after having selected a few elements it would just completely freeze… -
Re: Contest Rules
There seems to be a typo here: 5. Winner Selection. Polycount will select the winner from the pool of applicants by March 10, 2017. Polycount will be prepared to award the winning and running up prizes to alternates in the event they cannot be contacted in a reasonable amount of time. The jury selected by Polycount and… -
Re: Maxscript - Delete all polys that the camera can't see?
Well, if there really are a lot of objects and scenes, then I have no idea, as I don't script myself. But otherwise; You could probably select all the faces of the meshes in edit poly, viewing from the camera angle, while having (ignore backfaces?) enabled. And then just to be on the safe side, expand your selection once,… -
Re: Modo 10 game tools / Smoothing Groups
Guys, turn out the problem was the user not the tool! I didn't knew but the tool was created in a way that it needs you to select the edges on the loop to be able to drive the smoothing groups. Meaning in 1 quad I would have to select the 4 edges. Yeah..that's a feature ! So basically we just need to select the edges.… -
Re: splitting smoothing groups for normal maps
EdgeSmooth is a separate tool, it doesn't require TexTools at all. Both are Maxscripts for 3ds Max, not Mel scripts for Maya. I want a tool that will change all my UV border edges into hard edges. TexTools has a quick way to select the border edges, but it does not send that selection down to the Editable Poly. Which is…
