Re: Student concept art survey. Information for my graphic design thesis! (plz)
Edu stuff goes in Education & Careers. But yes, you should know that most people regard surveys as being spammy. Responding to someone's survey feels like tossing candy into a bottomless pit. That's why companies always try to give the survey respondents some sort of reward in return for their time, like being entered into… -
Re: Stripping texture path
Make sure you also reset your material editor (Utilities > Reset Material Editor Slots) before you export to FBX. FBX is used to transfer as many settings and features as possible between autodesk's 3D packages, the material editor is one of those settings. So you might have stripped the paths off of the objects but you… -

Re: Answered: On 3DS Max 2017
Hi! The Colors tool is currently being worked on by its developer to address compatibility issues with the newest versions of Autodesk toolsets. I have no ETA or any timeframe for a release date, but it is currently being fixed! In the meantime, however, there are many free alternatives. My best advice would be to try… -
Re: Noob joining to spread my horizons...

I… -
Re: ANSWERED: How do I get the swatches from dDo into zBrush?
Most of my models are polygrouped so i just color fill each polygroup that needs a separate material and then generate a texture at high poly. If you paint color with a brush use 0 focal on the brush so you get sharp edges. I would also be interested in how to use the fbx swatch file in Zbrush though. Could be useful to… -
Re: wtf is wrong with maya's bridge?
With the sub-d preview turned off it looks normal and fine. I can drag the verts and face out and it's all attached and welded. Stupidest thing ever! Nex looks good, but when the department is paying what it is for Maya already, it's hard to justify purchasing tools that should already be working. It's a shame Autodesk… -

In saying that, I really enjoy modelling props, weapons, etc. Character art is… -
Re: How Do You Get a High Res Clean Bake
Tried making cage? (Also Some Autodesk programs use "different normals" than the ones xNormal generates, so you may want to change software if that's case) Some splits seem to be at udesired places (windshield) - where you want smooth transition. Splitting UV islands at sharp edges results in better edges in normals. Also… -
Re: problems loading FBX file into nDo2? help!
I am wasting so much time with this. Max 2012 fbx 2013.3 FBX is not working correctly. 1. I use hard edges not smoothing groups (alah like Maya), and the viewer is giving triangle errors at intersections. 2. Model disappears once the screen tries to refresh after editing a normal level. 3. Importing parts of the model so I…
