Re: Final 2015 Reel
Sweet! Solidest reel I've seen in a while! I see no big glitches: in with a bang, out with a bang, dope soundtrack, contact info is where it needs to be, good length, high quality rendering throughout (from iAnimate I guess) so the viewer gets to focus on what is important, the animation. Something you might want to think… -
Re: Environment shadow maps
Definitely don't duplicate all your geometry. Depends on your engine but at best I'd imagine you'll end up with horrible z-fighting plus all the extra geometry. The way you use shadow/light maps is generally to create a second UV set (or "UV channel" if you're a Max user). In this second UV set you have all your UVs laid… -
Re: Turbosmooth VS Relax (to soften curves)
Do you see any use for this script perna or are there better methods to soften bent surfaces? Anyways, I used the macro recorder like you said and got this:subobjectLevel = 2[B]actionMan.executeAction 0 "40021"[/B]$.EditablePoly.SetSelection #Edge [COLOR="Red"][B]#{1..840}[/B][/COLOR]modPanel.addModToSelection (meshsmooth… -
Re: Espaki's dota 2 items
I've also got a ward I'm working on for chinese new year and I'm having a bit of trouble getting it to export properly. I can get the mesh exported and imported without error, but the animations don't seem to be working or playing. My (3DS max) process for exporting has been: 1. Select the skinned mesh and bones and export… -
Re: Extrude Problem
http://youtu.be/VYEIT4i6Hr4 I did it faster the first time since I have a pretty slow internet connection, especially in upload, anyway. The suggestions in this thread are all part of the same technique, which consist on cleaning up the mesh after the extrusion. In this case it was easier to select the inner face from the… -
Re: Howto bake with overlapping UV's
the easiest way is to delete any similar elements that will share the same UV unwrap. Unwrap everything making sure there is only one of each uv island, then after put an edit poly on top of the unwrap modifier and copy those elements across your mesh, building the rest of the mesh. after that is done, put an unwrap… -
Re: [modo] Vertex Alpha
Hey this is interesting! I'm not sure I quite get it 100% cus I'm still fairly new with modo in general. When using Vertex Map >> Color Tool I can only click each vertex to make it 0% alpha, whenever i airbrushed it across the mesh it painted on the mesh (instead of just affecting alpha), where can I set which map to… -
Re: Zelda: Wind waker Tech and Texture Analysis *picture heavy*
Here's my best guess, from working on the Wii: Wii textures can be saved using a variant of S3 Texture Compression, similar to DXT1. This is a block-based scheme where all the pixels in each block get assigned a linear blend between two endpoint colours. You've probably seen what happens when a sudden colour change happens… -
Re: Edit parts of material in negative texture space?
you can mask by UV position - just mess with the texcoords (eg. clamp them - theres better options but I'd need to have the editor open in front of me to do it) and use the result as a mask for a lerp (don't use switches/branching, its very bad for gpus) edit: knocked an example up in designer instead. this will give you a… -
Re: Having trouble to remesh and bake normals to a .OBJ mesh
You need to only have 1 non-overlapping UV inside the 0-1 UV square. You moved one of the overlaps outside the 0-1 square (orange island here), but you didn't move it exactly 1 UV unit. This means it won't be mapped correctly in-game, the texture on that orange piece won't line up anymore. You also need to move the…
