Re: 3ds max realistic lighting problems
I can't find anything suitable to show as a reference image, and I can't take a picture either. Rendered image from 3ds max is first image in above post, you can see in screenshots that I used 3 point lights and a sunlight, and that lights are setup to 'shadow map' for shadow settings. Basically I don't wish to have that… -
Re: Bending plane into D-bracelet shape, Need HELP! (ZBrush/Max, 3D print)
* Make a cylinder in Max * Squash it to the appropriate cross section shape * Delete unnecessary faces (end caps, etc.) * Apply a shell modifier and make it the appropriate thickness * Subdivide a bunch of times * Bake a displacement map from the high-poly onto a flat plane * Apply displacement to appropriately UVed… -
Re: Max - Alt key acting up
have you rebooted max? I've had this; but it's when you've pressed alt and let go, THEN press e. max --for some reason only max-- seems to respond differently to this, and will have trouble getting out of it. Not sure why, or if it's easily repeatable. -
Re: 3ds max 2017 viewport issue

Used the melody to create the normal map and renamed it to floor_local.tga. made a diffuse, floor_d.tga, and dumped both files into the directory that the md5 viewer accesses according to the scene.txt. went into max and exported the plane… -
Re: Max Topology script
I'm not really sure what a DBZ crater looks like, do you have a image, I google "Dragon Ball Z crater" and get pretty wide range of generic looking Anime craters. There are a few fracture scripts floating around, is that what you're after? http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/fracture-voronoi… -

Artifacts in AO map
Hi. I have been trying to render my AO maps using the max RTT dialog but keep coming up against the problem displayed below. When rendering the faces that are the same on the high and low polly get terrible ray miss errors. The only way i can fix this problem is by moving the high away from the low polly. Is there a way i… -
