Maxscript Custom Attributes
Hello! I have tried to use custom attributes for tools that I want to make but I get a undefined function or class when I open the scene that has a object with my custom attributes. Usually I add all the function by hand inside the custom attributes but I started to learn about FileIn() that seem really usefull to me.… -
Re: The Quarterly CHARACTER ART Challenge | July - September
I liked the character concepts this time and thought they are different enough in artstyle, but I can see how it's a taste thing. Often times I'd start this challenge without posting (because I don't want to "commit", idk?!) and then loose focus and abort mission. Maybe this happens with other people too? Another thing I… -
Re: Weapon Case help
A non destructive boolean & modifier technique is certainly well proven for rapid iterative hard surface workflows so yeah what I'd personally recommend. To better illustrate my point, here's a walkthrough authored by Frank Polygon alongside an all quad Subdivision and Mixed topology method also moar good stuff can be… -
Re: [FINISHED] - Vehicle - M551 Sheridan Tank
Back with another one of those block rockin' screenshots. Two of them, in fact. These are the panels that cover the engine at the back of the hull. I think I'll apply an alpha map to the wire mesh and model some very simple fans underneath. I think basic geometry should suffice, no need for a normal map or anything since… -
Re: [WIP] Sci-Fi Hallway
Quick update for tonight, not much change, just trying out a different color palette. As you can see, I'm getting a weird shading line down the center. Methinks it's because of something I did wrong in my process when I baked it out. So I just made the one half of the pillar, and mirrored it, but not for the AO bake, could… -
Re: combine meshes to continuous mesh
it took me a while, but I managed to get a continuous mesh like I wanted. I ended up using a boolean operation to fuse tiles and grout. I had to clean up afterwards manually, that why I reduced the tile number to 42 (from 180). The overall process was this: - sculpt hp meshes of ~15 tiles - set up particle system to place… -

Re: Just made the Switch to 3DSMax 2013
Instead of double tap, press 6 which is "object mode" it basically exits all sub-object modes (vert, poly, edge ect), but this also only works with KBSO turned on which is annoying, so you have to create a custom key bind with some simple maxscript. You don't need to be a scripting guru to start using maxscript to make… -
Re: Spaceship , Hardsurface , subdivision polymodeling learning and help
Are you going to make a game model of this ship too? Or is it just the highpoly, for practice? If there's enough poly density in the low poly, the overall curvature of the shapes should remain. I cut the main panels and add the support edges, like I mentioned in the other thread. If there's not enough density then in an…
