Re: Modelling from high poly to low poly?
I would like to point out something that is often said on this very forum, if the end product is the low poly, in game, mesh then ALL should be build for that.... not the other way around. If the low poly has restrictions, polycounts etc, then the High poly sometimes has to be built differently to enable a good end result… -

Re: The Programming/Scripting MASTER THREAD
its just a matter of practice. my best advice would be to work as neatly and modularly as possible. break code into functions as much as you can, and print out to the console alot. When you break your scripts down into functions it becomes much easier to locate errors and also becomes alot more readable. When you are using… -
Re: Dark Souls
Well the system should remain but I believe if you want to play with friends then you should be able to just find them in your PS3/360 list and click join their game. It should also not force players to have to be in soul form. I believe they are doing just that. Have you noticed the player who is glowing white? We know… -
Re: Importing FBX rig into Max
Rigs made in Maya are typically created this way because it allows you to rotate the bones "symmetrically". If you select the upper leg bones, turn on AutoKey, and rotate them both on their local axis you'll see this behavior. This isn't a problem at all, but the reason it's drawing inverted is because 3ds Max expects the… -
Re: How to texture (this and others)? Also is there a book...
Well first you need to get the gun unwrapped to be able to texture this properly. Search for some tutorials that guide you through UVW mapping in blender. Then once your model in unwrapped you can export a image file with the a UV wireframe on to enable you to paint on it in something like photoshop or gimp. Heres a couple… -
Re: really cool explanation about piracy
The problem with the comic is that it's comparing a bird singing (which is a naturally occuring creature that no one had to create) to a videogame or song that very many high-skilled people had to create. To make it equivalent it would have to be a person sneaking into a concert hall to listen to an opera for free. A bird… -
Re: [Maya] Some objects/sub-objects not visible on all viewports?
There are enable backface culling for display and for selection as far as I know. One is part of rendering (should still show up on skeleton mode) and the other is a option in the preferences. Make sure both are off. I upgraded to Maya 2012 and it come with the preferences option as on by default and it bugged the hell out… -
Re: Streaming media PC to Xbox360 HALP!
I can't get my PC to show up on my 360. I think maybe my network isn't set up properly. I've got things plugged into other things which gives me internet access. I tried setting up a network with file sharing enabled, but that doesn't seem to do anything useful. Maybe it's my router? I DON'T KNOW! You'd think connecting… -
Re: rant on: stupid UVW unwrap
I apply a new material with the custom checker background in the diffuse slot. To make life easier, I have that material saved in my maxstart.max file. I use a script from Blur Studios called The Onion, its a layer manager and it enables you to assign two textures to the same object and toggle between them with a click or…
