Edge selection and Unwrap questions
-3ds 2012 (Not using Nitrous) -Direct3D 9.0 -Win 7 So when I have edges selected in the viewport and try to navigate the viewport the edges flicker red and white. Making it very hard to view what edges I have selected. Anyone experience this or know how to fix this? I have tried googling this and searching the forum. But… -
Re: Maya 2010: create edge between 2 verts
thanks for the help, bugo...but I just want 1 (shoulda mentioned) diagonal edge between two verts that are on border edges. I found the edge loop tool and it will be quite handy (already hot-keyed it). I've also downloaded and installed OMToolbox and it will connect internal verts to create an edge, but it won't work on… -
How you decide how much you will chamfer an edge? Is there a rule or just random?
Hi polycount! Recently I've done a 3D Machine gun model but someone told me that machine gun edges not looking natural and that edges will cause aliasing problems. But I did a low poly model and guns are made from metal and metals are very solid materials I did edges very hard because of that but still should I chamfer… -
Set Align to edge as a hotkey in maya?
Does anyone know if it's possible to set the align to edge option for the translate tool in maya to a single hotkey? The tool option is hidden inside menus and it's slowing down my workflow. The marking menu for this is ok but I'd rather not have to select the option and pick an edge, I'd like it to use whatever I already… -
UDK, lightmass, Jagged edges, AAAARRRGHHH
Hi all I've gone through just about all the documentation I can find on lightmass, and still cant eliminate these jagged edges when I bake lighting on the mesh I'm working on (see attachment). I've tried separating the uv's along this edge, stitching them into one shell, buffering the uv shells, still cant get my lightmaps… -
Re: Zbrush-pinching effect on edges,need help
Ghostscape's method is fine if your mesh is all planar, flat surfaces. If there's any curved surfaces they will remain faceted when you subdivide with smooth switched off. An alternative is to use the Zbrush "crease edge" function in the tool>geometry panel. You can either use it with a global tolerance (the "Ctolerance"… -
How to extrude shape with sharp edges from curved surface?
I found that it is problem to extrude for instance cube like shape from sphere. I tried different solutions: 1. after extrusion, add supporting edges to have that extrusion with sharp edges. - this will break the shape of the object from which i did the extrusion 2. In Blender, add mean crease, mark edges as sharp and add… -
select every other edge on collapsed subdivided mesh - 3dsmax
Hi all! In a few occasions lately I ve been in the need of going back to a subdiv mesh and manually remove the edges generated by subdivision, in order to get the base cage back. It's not a very hard thing to do really - just a matter of selecting every other edge loops, and removing them. The result is pretty much what… -
Re: Hard edges, uvs, vertex use, normals, etc
Also just to be perfectly clear here: Having hard edges on your lowpoly mesh should have no effect on your baked end results. If you're getting visible hard edges/seams from using hard edges with the NM applied, this means something is broken in your baking process. Generally this means that you aren't using an averaged… -
Bevelling, Smoothing & Edge Padding with Normal Mapping?
I'll just cut to the chase: I read that one can bevel 90° edges to make them smoother when normal mapping. I also smoothed the map, yet this was the result (which was slightly worse): That was done on a 1024 * 1024 map. Different values for edge padding appear to do nothing, so my questions are threefold: 1. How much…
