Re: [MAXScript] View Stats
Not just saving it to a variable, deleting it afterwards, too. Launch task manager to see the RAM usage of 3dsmax process and see it rising with ( local t = Teapot segments:64 for i = 1 to 1000 do t.mesh.verts.count) and now compare it to ( local t = Teapot segments:64 local m -- one variable to hold them all, outside the… -
Re: Shuriken Particle Glow/Bloom
we handle projectiles with Simulated_space = Local, and often the Stretched_ Billboard (so they stretch with speed and orient to cam while aiming into a location) and if it needs to leave trail fire bits or smoke use another set to _World space grouped with it. we move it and use a sphere_collision component to do a hit… -
Re: DAM soft for 3d files?
Hi all, I have a content management question hence I thought I might as well ask about it here as it might relate to the kind of software linked above. Let's say I have a file (it could be of any type, but mostly images really), somewhere on my local machine, at an arbitrary location and on an arbitrary hard drive. Is… -

share: maxscript > store camera resolution per camera
what: simple maxscript that stores and reads per camera stored rendering resolution settings (width and height). You simply click on a camera of that list (list of your cameras in the scene) and it will change the aspect ratio of the safe frame and change your render width and height settings. Its quite specific but… -
Re: [Don't Be gentle] Official pre-GDC folio critique thread.
My biggest critique on your portfolio is: bigger images! this is what i see on my 2560*1440 monitor: this is what i see on my 1920*1080 monitor: I would make sure that whichever device you're planning to show people this on (tablet or whatever), that the images are big enough to over-run the screen and cause them to… -
Re: UV seam - edge selection, how, max
sorry about that, I was not behind a computer - I had a similar trick used in some related issue with my texTools somewhere. But it seems that it does not contract the selection towards the outer edges the way you would usually expect it. Anyway since I like you I wrote a script for you- its not fast but it should do the… -
Re: Topoproject v0.1 Maxscript
rather than along the camera ray I should have said. gw.transPoint your verts worldspace coord to screenspace and do a mapScreenToWorldRay. make sure you've set the graphic windows transform to the identity. gw.setTransform(Matrix3 1) This should allow you to cast the vert onto the mesh from the perspective of the user.… -
Re: [3DSMAX] Creating a History Window
@Swordslayer - Okay I made the script to print the last 6 actions to the listener since I dont have enough experience with maxscript to make a rollout with a working update button. Its bare bones but it works. When I hit a key I have Autohotkey set up to clear the listener window and hit the Undo Script button in the UI to… -
Re: Video Game Layoffs - Mass Events
There are certain economies of scale and access to resources that result in businesses locating in high cost of living areas, despite the increases in overhead costs. It is economically more profitable to do so and the pro's outweigh the con's; it is a reason why manufacturing towns form (of which I consider games…
