Re: rigging foreskin to get pulled back.
What software? Realtime rig? How detailed is the mesh? In Maya, you could have several rings of joints, each constrained to the mesh with a Geometry Constraint, so they freely slide along the surface. I ran up an example here just to see how well it would work, it would need more joints and smarter weights to look better,… -
Re: Combining creased objects in Maya
Tried fiddling with this problem for a bit. I don't use crease edges often but when I do they tend to be unstable and get clobbered when combining complex meshes together. Apparently you can't use Select Using Constraints and isolate only crease edges (unless I was using the tool wrong) so I made a workaround script that… -
Re: Maya Animation Workflow Tips and Tools Video
@ Archanex: Hi! I'm glad you liked the GDC talk! I'm always surprised when people know who I am, sometimes I forget how small the industry is :) I generally have to create extra controls or constraints when I'm working with scenes that have multiple characters and/or props. For instance, Imagine I have Scout, her dog… -

By default Shift+x is Edge constrait toggle, but even after I delete this Hotkey it still do the edge constraint.... -
[Prop] Sonic-esque critter container
So I'm working on this indy project with some guys I know. It's kind of a spin off from the sonic platformers. Some people might recognize the prop from the game. Basically after defeating a boss in sonic, you run over and jump on this container, it blows open, and frees all the critters. Same concept here. We've done our… -
Container city - University project.
Hi! A while ago now myself and a team of friends finished a project for university based around the given phrase 'Container city'. In terms of limitations we were given 4 weeks and 10 x 1024 texture sheets to work with. Anyway, enough of this, heres the outcome. [ame] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-ryeUfK8aA[/ame] And… -
Rigging Workflows
I know theres a lot of correct maya rigging workflows. Please let me know what you think of this rigging workflow for a biped? Is it completely wrong ? How would you change it ? Tell me your preferred workflow. A character should exist in a scene inventory as a single group node containing EVERYTHING related to that… -
Re: Shipping Container Village - UE4
Your props are looking good but watch the scale of them. The block out is a good start too. You might want to add a bit more detail to ground geo (just a plain flat material) to get a feel of where the tracks lead, where the sand may pile up against the containers, etc. Don't have all the containers at right angles either.… -
uv tiling for grounds.
Hi everyone. I have a pretty newbie question.. was wondering if you can answer. So i just figured out that to do tileable textures when unwrapping, you need to add geometry to the model. Now what if i were constrained to 2 or 3 textures for an entire scene, were its got huge mountainous terrain... Adding all that geometry… -
Re: Riggin cloth banners/drapes - Maya
Hair curves and a cloth sim would give you the best result but if you don't have unlimited, you can still rig something up with active/passive rigid bodies. Create a bunch of poly cubes and make them active rigid bodies. Point constrain joints from the sheet skeleton to these cubes. Then create spring constraints between…
