[UV Mapping] What to do when "unfold" doesn't "behave" normally / as expected?
EZ all, I've started using Max again over the last couple of days because I've had some time on my hands finally. I haven't forgotten TOO much, but I just have a quick question about the "unfold" feature of the Unwrap UVW modifier. Usually the command works just as expected (if I can picture the UV's unfolding in my head,… -

That wouldn't be a problem at all, XSI was simply listed as an example. :) Can you show us some examples of your past work? -
Re: Yep, it's another AK47.

Re: How can I make powerlines?
I would suggest NOT using an alpha blended surface for these. The texture is going to be filtered with distance, and the lower MIPS will be very blurry. It's generally better to just use pure opaque geometry. Include enough cross-sections to reduce long thin triangles, which can cause performance issues with some GPUs.… -
Re: .dds mipmap viewport render in max.. how?
