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: 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: Relevance vs. Quality
Job listings often get even more specific, like an architectural role that wants kitchen visualizations, or a VFX position focused purely on object removals. In those cases, even general interior renders or broader VFX work can come across as “off-topic” I guess what I’m really wondering is, how common is it to be… -
Rexel Workflow
I propose Rexel Workflow when it comes to setting texel density while unwrapping. This workflow is for static images and is camera-dependent. Rexel is the final rendered pixel. Let’s say we have a scene with a vehicle model: an airplane with detailed objects and a few cameras, some distant for an overall view, but some for… -
Re: Interior with Hero Asset WIP Log : Pirate's Tavern
This accidentally answers the question above and is also my critique for the night scene: The colors are too saturated. - The blue light is far more gray and greener/less red in the refs - The yellow light can also be less saturated and red I'd adjust them and experiment with adding a couple of faint, desaturated green… -
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: Baking Albedo / Diffuse Textures
it's usually not a problem at all if you bake form one single object to another. Blender can do it super quick if you bake your albedo in emit slot for example. A bit more complicated it is when you need to bake many objects to single shell object. Or bake many different objects into single shared texture using another UV… -
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?…
