Re: Exteel Gun (PBR)
If you're using Max, you may wish to use http://www.renderhjs.net/textools/ - this has a script that will auto convert different UV islands to their own smoothing group, very handy and can save a lot of time, all you have to do is split your UVs where required and the script will do the rest. -
Re: Why Modo?
haha, ask away indeed! : ) I came for the selectioncapabilities and sub-tools, stayed for the customisation. Went from lightwave -> Maya -> Modo. Just keep finding new improvements to my workflows constantly. Too bad i cant script worth shit, otherwise i would make more scripts, haha. -
Re: 3ds Max command line baking?
Thanks, guys. I was just talking to a guy here at work, and he sent me a script that automates ao baking, so I'm going to see if I can rework to make it run from command line. I'm more of a copy and paste guy when it comes to scripting, so this could be interesting. :) -
Re: issue in marmoset when using normal map
Your low poly should have all UV border edges set as hard edges. This should resolve your artifacting, provided you are using a cage. You should probably grab this MEL script from Jon Stewart. It automatically hardens UV borders. http://jonathonstewart.blogspot.com/search/label/Scripts -
Convert UVs to flat mesh for Maya
I would like to convert a UV-expanded flat shape in Maya to a mesh. but please let me know if there are functions or scripts. If possible. I would like to wrap the converted flat mesh onto the original mesh. I tried the script "flatten Model by UV 0.1.2 for Maya" in Maya 2018. but I could not execute it because the error… -
Directory path question
Seems like it should be simple, but in maxscript how can I tell a script I’m working on to run the functions from a directory in the same folder without having to type the entire absolute path? For example: myScript_main.ms //How can I tell this script to read a directory in the same folder no matter what machine it’s on?… -
Generating curvature from normals?
I have an asset I bought from the UE marketplace but I'm not super happy with how the wear matches my scene and would like to do a retexture. I recall having a Photoshop script forever ago that generated curvature form my normal map but have lost that. Anybody know of the script, or can explain the process of taking the… -
Maxscript: Possible to launch a .Bat file from maxscript?
I'm writing some level tools for 3ds max and would like to launch a .bat file once an export has been completed. Any way to do this? The docs have lots of info about batch scripts (running max in silent mode from the command line) but I need to run a batch script from within max. Thanks! -Tyelr -
Re: The basics of creating pseudo volume textures in Substance Designer - Tutorial
Yeah. Now there is an asset type for that in Unreal. Though, there is a downside of that. It doesn't have blueprint functions exposed so you can hardly script it. So when it needs to be changed during runtime, or do any scripting,a pseudo volume one is better. When its static or needs to tile, the non-pseudo one, of course. -
Re: Dan-r and his Modo quest
The ease of setting up custom hotkeys should be a selling feature by its own. Senecas scripts are invaluable, I often try to figure out how to do something and find that he already made a script for it. Baking normals is fast and easy with Modos baker so no need to export anything :smile: Have fun
