Yeah, sometimes the buttons get buggy if you move the toolbox from it's default screen position. But it's easy to fix, you just need to close it, then open it again and it will work fine from then on for the rest of your Max session. And I love the little "reset xform" button as well as the pivot aligning buttons. Super…
I use Chuggnut's TurboUnwrapUVW tool for unwrapping my models. Adds a lot of extra, nice tools. Puts stitch on a button with the other tools. Some real nice alignment and rotate buttons. Puts break vertices, weld vertices, and target weld on buttons along the top of the window. Hell, too many nice things to list about it.
Hi all, so i'm trying to model a Nokia 3310 cos why not?! I'm struggling with how to organise the topology around the buttons. So far all i've done is booleaned where the buttons need to go but haven't done much clean up. I think i inset around button 2 to tighten up the edges but the rest is a mess. Wondering how you…
The register looks pretty good, but I would re-think it. Your triangle density in those button doesn't really make any sense. You have a 3,000 tri object let's say, and 2,000 of that is in tiny little buttons. If you have a budget for that many, I would just go with regular buttons and make the register itself more…
Alec, I have a logitech M505 which I noticed does have the side buttons for the scroll wheel, but the feedback from the MMB is different from the feedback of the the other buttons you mention. The other symptom I saw mentioned and have as well is that, when I press the ALT key, most of the top menu functions' first letters…
When you're looking at your Bitmap in the Material Editor, are you setting the #'d button to the left of the Show Map In Viewport button? Max unfortunately calls this the "Material ID Channel", not to be confused with the Material IDs used in the Multi/Sub-Object material. Anyhow, down in your Bitmap set this button to a…
little double post here, sorry for that - wanted to write a follow up on and tell everyone that the itunes button is now on the website - it leads directly to the podcast's page on the itunes store, where you can subscribe to our podcast :) once again, www.thegamedevcast.com is our website, and the itunes button can be…
The GoZ option should appear inside Max in the menu bar, at the very end adjacent to Help. If it's not there, then the pipeline has not been installed, which needs to be done using ZBrush. To install the pipeline in ZBrush, click the GoZ button in the Tool palette and ZBrush will search for any applicable software to link.…
Hey, I've got the same problem. There is no "convert to main" button under topology... I was trying to follow this tutorial: http://www.3dtotal.com/index_tutorial_detailed.php?id=1090&catDisplay=1&roPos=1&page=2#addcomment But I just can't find the "convert to main" button to turn the zsketch into zspheres :( I'm using…
