3ds Max Scene - All props suddenly centered to world.
So a year or two ago I had to make an environment for a class of mine. I'm not sure what version of Max I made it in (thinking maybe Max 9) but I finished it and stored it away. Now I'm trying to use it as part of my graduation portfolio, but when I opened it today in Max 2011, not only are all the objects in the scene… -
Weight painting breaks mesh kinda (Maya)
So I've been getting this funny little bug where when I'm in the middle of weight painting my mesh does this: No apparent reason, I haven't figured out what causes it and the only bright side is that I figured out how to fix it without throwing away all of my previous weight painting. But it's a pain in the butt.… -
[Maya] Soften/Hard normals unlock locked normals
Hello, I meet a problem that I'm unable to solve. I'm making simple beam and using some bevels on the edge to soften a bit the geometry. When I'm trying to tweak the normals to fix the shading, some are correctly done like I want and some other don't. They seems to have no reasons to behave like this. My current workflow… -
Maya LT - UV Techniques
Hi Guys, I am looking for some advice or help on UV techniques. I know the whole process is relatively simple but I was wondering if there are any 'tricks of the trade' for UV'ing models quickly. I have a low poly asset I want to UV, there is a lot of faces which go in different directions (from extrudes etc.) My usual way… -

Maxscript batch rendering question
Hello, I have a little script that generate batch renders with a serie of HDRI that are located in a directory. The script gets the first HDRI, does 8 renders by rotating the HDRI every 45 degrees, save the renders and load the next HDRI in the directory. My problem is that this script works on certain scenes, and doesnt… -
Library Panel resets after every update.
So I just updated from 3 to 4. I noticed I need to download the assets separately after installing the application. Which is not a problem. The annoying thing is that every time an icon changes from the 'cloud', 'spinning cog' to no icon, the entire window seems to reset. Whatever selection I made is now undone and the… -
Re: blender 2.8 vs 3ds max .. critical two issue..
"I know, I know, [...]" @Justo : besides the confusion about edge extrusion, your second gif shows that you are attempting to grab components on the object itself in order to perform mesh editing operations. You pretty much need to unlearn this habit as you are wasting time and effort because of it. Instead you want to… -
Re: Solved: dDo wont detect some colors on my ID map
Hey Justin! ID reimporting is currently not functioning perfectly, so I'll address the missing ID colors - dDo filters colors out for noise, anything smaller than a certain amount of pixels will get culled. Try adding some padding of two to ten pixels around the ID in question and use that in a new project to see if that… -
Re: I'm new and trying to learn the basics.
The tutorials that come with max (as cheesy as they are) can't be beat for learning the software itself. Youtube is a great resource too. Once you get past the program basics I suggest you check out the wiki here on polycount and if you want to fork out some cash, 3dmotive and eat3d have some really nice products. WARNING:…
