Re: Worklog. BreaK-
90 degree angles. Either bevel the edge and rebake OR break it with hard edge/multiple smooth grps and seperate ur uvs along the same edge, then rebake. -
Re: car modeling help
u can use Insert Edge Loop instead of beveling the edges ! but do adding edge loops after u finished blocking and details. -
Re: [Maya] Smoothing groups problem, weird looking artifacts
There are no smoothing groups in Maya (only soft and hard edges). Try Normals > Unlock Normals, and if there are still any hard edges, Normals > Soften Edge. -
Re: W.i.p new man Reborn
I always hated that my professors didn't teach me the basics in my 3D animation classes so I sort of understand your frustration with school. To learn to model humans that look good in your lifetime I suggest you do what John and ElysiumGX said and get reference, and lots of it. Workflow: 1. Plan what you want, then find… -
Re: Need Help on Normal map issues!
try to bevel the edge, it should fix it. edit: also, it looks like that edge is hard, try smoothing it. apply hard edges only where your uv seams are -
Re: Zwebbie's Big Maya Questions Thread
for 1, i'd select the two edges you want connected with one edge and dopolySplitRing -ch on -splitType 1 -weight 0.5; then split polygon to connect the edges for the triangles -
Re: Improving my 3D modeling
Thank you so much for the feedback! can you give me a general idea of what would be best to model at my current level? as for the triangle fans, how can they be avoided when i have rounded edges like in this case? I will definitely check out Korean Bevels -
Re: [Help] - Hardsurface modeling help!
u might just unintentionally creased the edge between those selected vertexes, select the edge and check under Edit Edge if Crease is set to zero, -
Re: Cinema 4d tips and tricks thread
As promised above, this post is my tips about Cinema 4D's "Normal Tag"... In Cinema 4D, Vertex Normals (and thus, the 'smooth-shading' aspect of mesh objects) are normally generated and maintained by the "Phong Tag". The Phong Tag has options for setting a "Phong Angle" (smoothing angle) as well as an option to honor phong… -
Re: Polish TKS Tankette (WIP) Feedback Requested
As a general rule, convex edges get wear and concave ones get dirt accumulation. Oxidation is a bit different in the sense that it could occur almost anywhere but lets focus on wear and dirt for now. Lets take this area as an example: The edges in the red boxes are neither convex or concave in the context of the whole…
