Re: Will autodesk ever fix the transparency display problems in maya?
There is some hope for more Viewport 2.0 features. If you dig through the files there is a lot of unfinished code and interface features that have been commented out. There are stubs for viewport bloom/glow and a few other VP2.0 features. In the CGFX files there are files for cgfx shadow code (including soft shadows), just… -
Re: Organizational Philosophy within Maya's mesh tool-sets? Help Appreciated.
i think it's just the same in maya as it was in max really. bought-in addons like the modeling toolkit, various integrated bits from the bonus tools, things they keep around for compatibility reasons and the history of a 20 year old program that even when brand new was quite the collection of functionality from a few… -
Re: [Portfolio] Looking For Critique
On my monitor some pages are loading with a scroll bar and some aren't which is causing the page to shift left and right depending on content I am looking at. I think there is a way to force scroll bars on regardless of content size but I haven't done it in a while. On the layout, I also think it is a little to much… -
Re: Changing the direction of laser beams?
A beam isn't a projectile. It's literally just a trace and a particle beam effect. Beams do not have their own class in UDK because it's entirely unnecessary. You could do all of this in a loop with around ten to twelve lines of code inside the appropriate firing function of the weapon (IIRC, InstantFire or something like… -
Re: Maya user learning 3DS Max
I also noticed that I was aways charging my selection Region from Rectangular, Circular, Fence, Lasso and Paint. The reason for this is my old habit from Maya of pressing Q to switch to Object mode in Maya. To fix this I changed the "Object Level" hot-key from 6 to Q. You can find this under Customize User Interface >… -
Re: Asus Eee Slate
bump since my account only recently got verified and the post is a few pages back now. I'm thinking of using the "Click-N-Type" interface when my slate arrives: http://cnt.lakefolks.com/ Not the best looking app but at least that means it won't use up resources. Also not really sure how well it'll work with touch sensors,… -
Re: Realtime post-processing HLSL shader editor?
I downloaded FX Composer, and it's in the same state as RenderMonkey; an intuitive interface with no proper documentation and tutorials. Installing Unity just to run some HLSL code on a screenshot sounds pretty overkill, but if that's what it takes, I guess I'll have to do that. I'd rather just use one of these dinky… -
Re: Asset management
Reference material we don't usually add to source control. Just game assets and their source files. Reference videos and images usually is just on a network share that is backed up weekly. Also we don't check in concept art. Just the final concept in the asset folder. Perforce is awesome though. I wrote a MaxScript… -
Re: Medieval Grunt Character
:) :thumbup::thumbup: Thanks for all the replies. I learnt a lot of things doing this project. I was artistically in a dip and really needed something to encourage me to continue on. Looks like some one was looking over me. I had a few close friend encouraging, and glad I decided to post it. I have to say one of the best… -
Re: Baking - Anistropy Maps - Pretty please, help me.
When I was at 8ml we had an inhouse tool to "paint" the direction, or sort of "comb" the direction. How it worked was you had a 3d model, basic 3d paint interface and you would paint the direction map by literally drawing brush strokes in a certain direction. We used this for some horse textures to good effect.…
