Re: snapshotasmesh into new mesh

Re: Confusion with Normal baking issues around edges/borders
Okay, I've reduced the file size to about 60MB by making the accessories maps 1K. Although I imagine I'll need to include the high poly file...? The rivets on it are wrong. I swear I'd corrected those in ZBrush and saved, but not according to Perforce. :-\ I'll have to rectify those another time. Hope the links work...… -

Re: maya - learning

Re: Custom mouse behaviour
Scripting is likely the best way. set up a state machine. Have a state for moving and for standing still. When transitioning from moving to standing, or vice versa, store the heading you want to return to in a variable (like say var vector3 LastHeading) In the moving state, the function for looking around always returns… -
Re: Scripting beginner :)
string $listuv[] = `ls -sl -fl`; float $uv1[]=`polyEditUV -q $listuv[0]`; float $uv2[]=`polyEditUV -q $listuv[1]`; //This should save you a couple of lines float $uvresult[]; $uvresult[0]=`abs ($uv2[0]-$uv1[0])`; $uvresult[1]=`abs ($uv2[1]-$uv1[1])`; float $angle=`atan ($uvresult[1]/$uvresult[0])`; $angle=`rad_to_deg… -

Re: [3DSMAX] Creating a History Window

Its bare bones but it works. When I hit a key I have Autohotkey set up to clear the listener window and hit the Undo Script button in the UI to… -
