Rion411 Thank you! I'm definitly completly obsessed with the game myself for some reasons! Jandokenpon You are totally right, I did had a circle design ready, for some reason I just forgot to apply the right shader/texture to it, I didn't even notice! The guitar was rushed quite a bit, was trying to finish the project this…
I've been a lurker here for quite a few years. Amazing forum. I just happened across this thread today and thought I would try and cast away peoples fears about scanning. Hi, my name is Lee, I designed this single shot capture system at IR. Just to make a few things clear. There is an incredible amount of artistry behind…

I use 2008, so i hope this is still relevant... or actually not, hopefully this stuff is already fixed ;) . -Overall the program is just bloated by functionality that isn't really necessary, or doesn't feel relevent to what you're doing at the time. There are plenty of buttons that if i think hard i could kinda see how it…
In this case, simply double the # of sides on the asset, remove all these really small bevels for the ridges etc, and you'll end up with a better result with much less tris. Sure you wont have those tiny little ridges, but they likely wouldn't be noticed ingame anyway. Quick test to show various methods. left to right: A.…
wester: I assume you dont use max 2010 yet because in 2010 the glare shader is enabled by default - in previous version (starting with 9) it has to be enabled in a textfile. Once its enabled under render settings you can drag it into a material slot to edit it's changes (because its a shader after all). Some complete…

Hi polycounters ! 0/ Since a few hours (maybe more) I'm trying to learn and make a custom tool for Maya and my workflow. I have already programmed in C++ in the past, so the Mel language is not so hard to understand for me. The hard part is to find the name of the various function inside maya, but even with that, I still…
Hey Polycounters, I am new to the community so this is officially my first post. I am currently working on a next gen model for my demo reel/portfolio. I have never really done a normal mapped full scale piece before from high poly to low poly. So, yep you got it I am having some issues with baking my normal maps. First…
