Re: Worthless Women and the Men Who Create Them
Good thoughts. Not what I got out of it at all. But my disclaimer is that my sarcasm detector is broken. :/ I don't agree with all he has to say, but: He was asking us to appreciate real women.

Re: Normal Map Artifacts!
1) Sure you set well the projection modifier. Sure it covers completely the highpoly model. Sure you set well the smooth groups. Caution with cylindrical and mirrored UVs. 2) Try to collapse + XForm the mesh before rendering the normal map/export mesh. 3) I think the problem is that 3dsmax averages the vertex normal when… -
Re: nORMALS ZBRUSH TO mAX
Ok well now we are starting to get somewhere thanks to you fly_soup. Here's where I am at now What I think happened was that I changed my OBJ exporter to the guru export, which is awesome by the way.

[Maya MEL] Can you create a window with a UV editor view?
As far as I'm aware, most UI elements in Maya can be added in custom UI windows. For example, you can create windows with a scene's viewport ("modelEditor"), blend shape editor ("blendShapeEditor") and the node editor ("nodeEditor"). You can arrange them however you want and as many as you want. But so far I haven't… -
3d Studio Max to Substance Painter - The Emperor Throne - bakingand color problems

Now I want to make it look nice with materials… -
