Re: 3ds Max 2010 Is Here...
Neox: Read my other post Iron: If that works or not, that is still just a lame hack ignoring the real issue. That max does not correctly render for realtime display. Its very simple to prove this. 1. Make a box with rounded corners 2. Make a low poly box with 1 SG 3. Render your normal map. 4. Render this object in the… -
Re: Quads and Tris and some other things.
fmnoor, you dont need to open that dialog box so no need to scare the trolls. yeah I wonder If you are perhaps getting a little confused with your terminologies. You understand the difference between polygon>smooth and converting polys to subD's right? The first is simply subdividing a polygon mesh, the second is… -
Re: GP's Art Dump
Such a building would be better to do with modules. This could end up being 2-3 modules for facade parts, 2-3 for the roof parts, 2-3 for the "bottom metal wall" part (the section uder white wall). The "jet engine" parts would be probably 1 module which could represent a quarter and being copied 4 times in a circle. As for… -
Re: MARI Extension Pack - News
Thanks Campi for making it clear. I actually meant not something going across UDIMS . Roadside armco for example, where each repeating part along a road curve has its UV perfectly shifted from 0-1 to 1-2, 2-3 and so on. The way it wouldn't create gazillion unnecessary uv splits across armco body with side vertexes merged.… -
Re: Godot Platformer - Throwing projectiles - How to make it land in a certain point
However I figured things out but I can't understand why it works. public void launch(Node2D start, Node2D target, float direction) { Vector2 startpos = start.GlobalPosition; targetpos = target.GlobalPosition; //float up_gravity= (target.GlobalPosition.y-start.GlobalPosition.y)/2; float arc_height = target.Position.y; float… -
Re: [Maya CGFX] Photoshop psd file loses alpha channel
this is what michael "zacker" schmidt and i found out (which will get you a bit further but not entirely there) 1) Double click the psd file node in the hypershader 2) In the attribute editor below the path to the psd file you will see an option called "alpha to use". 3) Open the dropdown where it says "default" and choose… -
Re: Is there a Ring between edges Maxscript?
1. Get Endverts of 1 selected edge 2. Get all edges connected to the endverts 3. Get all endverts of this edges 4. determine which of these verts form a new edge as a pair 5. save the pair(you will most likely get 2 pairs, one in each direction) 6. do the same procedure again for the edges between the vert-pairs, except… -
Re: Game Art Education - Need Your Advice
That's a lot of great advice guys, I will definitely take all of it into consideration. :thumbup: Perhaps I'll end up doing a bit of both. For example, I thought of this path: 1) Go self-taught, make a great portfolio, apply for jobs inside the EU, 2) Work in the European game industry for a few years, 3) Do an MA program… -
Re: Industry Question
Okay. Gonna try to be as brief as possible. 1. Model with whatever you want, as long as it's somewhat industry standard. 2. When you get to the company, it should be pretty easy to switch to their software. Took me about 1 month to really learn 3ds max before I started my job. 3. Definitely be open to learning their… -
Re: ZBrush mask by subtool intersection
I'v messed with this for a while and haven't come up with anything. Wish I did. Would be really useful. EDIT: I found this on Zbrush Central posted by Marcus. Not really a 1 click solution but better than nothing. 1. Turn on Ghost transparency. The subtool you want to mask should be selected and the subtool you want to do…
