Re: Free Maya/max cgfx/fx Shader
Hi guys :) Pior asked for object space normal map so here's a new version http://mentalwarp.com/~brice/download/GenericBRDF_2_BETA2.cgfx I might create a separate technique for this in the end since I could skip a lot of vertex code. People are less likely to want to switch from OS to TS on the fly with a checkbox. The… -
Re: Montreal Lab UDK scene
It snowed, work closed down for the day so in between building snow forts with my daughter and working remotely from home I worked on this scene a bit. I mostly created the export script I talked about earlier. What it does: Records the objects current position. Moves it to 0 0 0. Triangulates the model by adding a turn to… -
Re: 3dsmax question: Rotate mesh around a point
Oh I didn't read "next to" in your post. I thought you wanted to move one object to the same position of another, not align it to one of its extremes. In that case snaps would work pretty well. Regular align would also work with it set to Min/Max. It would align the current object to the bounding box of the target object.… -
Re: Can you tell me what projection is this?
Every 3d package texture baker could bake from one UV to another or from one mesh to another. Could be done both ways actually. I don't use 3d max for a decade already but as far as I remember it could be perfectly done in render-to-texture dialog. Or any texture baker that support a texture on "hires" mesh. Substance… -
Re: [MAXScript] Detect Mouse Position Event: In/ Over/ Out
Yeah, you're right. The timer actually redundant as I commented the first line and nothing happen, the code still works like what I expected. I don't quite understand your point with the "intersect" though, the original code was for making a list of object under the mouse cursor, hence return the array of objects like what… -
Re: do i have to bake complex curtains made in marvelous?
The issue you are having comes from ray missing error your baker does . When low res surface probably folds into itself or having narrow gaps and no way to separate parts telling what specific point ray should see/ stop at and what shouldn't. Possible solutions: 1. More low res shell encompassing the thing around having… -
Re: [MEL Script] Batch FBX Exporter
Hey haiddasalami! Cool idea, this is definitely useful for working with UDK. :) One thing I might suggest is that you investigate Sets with custom attributes on them (eg. export path) so that if the user exports a selection of multiple objects to a specific path/filename, you then store those objects in a new Set, name the… -
Re: [prop] Junk Pile
Even still, you're wasting a -lot- of triangles. Bricks should not be chamfered, broken bricks and cinderblocks have a lot of redundant loops, the center loop of the tire doesn't contribute enough to the silhouette to exist and the inside can be much sparser too. In total this prop is ~5k triangles... far too much for some… -
Zbursh - just trying to make a displacement map!!
I've imported an OBJ object into Zbrush (pre UV unwrapped) and I understand now that OBJ files don't transfer UV's to Zbrush? So I was trying to import a Maya ASCII file for the same object to transfer over the sculpted detail onto it and then export. When I import it into tools in Zbrush, it imports one part of the file?… -
Maya 2011 - Human IK
Don't know if this is the right forum for this but this caused some confusion for me atleast. It is an error in the Helpfile that is the cause of confusion. Under the helpsection on the Characterize tab. The section about reference "Reference While you do not need a Reference object during the mapping process, this slot…
