Hey Guys, I have been playing around with blender and some scripting lately. I decided to port Pedro's excellent super smart create script I am really new to Blender and my python coding skills are not the finest, so please if you find any better way to do stuff or if i'm making any stupid shit just let me know. Anyways,…
I just tested the script on max2011. Everything works fine. I don't know why on max2010 the Edit_Poly support is not working for you. Try this code:macroscript CleanRemovecategory:"miauu"tooltip:"As default max Ctrl+Backspace"buttonText:"Clean Remove"( if selection.count ==1 then ( function GetEdgesUsingVertEPM curSel…
Tech artists roles vary so much because not all companies realise what a tech artist can do for them. I started writing some Maxscripts 10 years ago to help me out when I was creating assets. At Runecraft I was writing noddy scripts to add helper nodes to characters for the runtime guys, but I was still very much a…
First wrong assumption that you are making is that it need to compete with Max/Maya/Modo/Whatever. It doesn't have to. It may complement each of those applications. There is a Houdini, and there is a Houdini Engine. Most of you would need only Houdini Engine. You are not the type of guys who build tools, so what you would…
I would disagree here. As much as I love UE4, I find Blueprints to be much more difficult than C#/Unity Script. I'm not anywhere close to being a decent programmer and so I love the idea of a visual system. However, whenever I try to do something in Blueprints, I find myself wishing I had access to high level text…
What exactly do you miss from Maya? Personally, coming from Max to Maya, I found a lot of Maya's UV tools quite clunky (although others are good) :) You should try out this workflow (ideal for characters & organic meshes anyway): * Planar map all polys of the object, just to get rid of any seams. * Select edges in the…
Followed the tutorial, worked fine for myself, I get what you're trying to do now. So the modifier stack is just a way to replicate FWN without using an external script - you want to do it this way for sake of non destructive. You're using highpoly and lowpoly in regards not for normal map baking but rather lowpoly to…
Loop stuff I don't fully get Not sure exactly what you mean by "support edge loops" but I guess its some split loop or loop shift thing- I get stuff easier with pictures. If its very specific but you do it all the time, maybe take the time to either write a script or ask people here in the tech talk section to either do it…
