Re: Recommendation for Maya 2018 Texel Density Tool
FWIW I had the same problems with Nightshade in 2016.5, probably facing the same thing you are now. I couldn't find an alternative in 2018 for texel density. The issue stems from having very small UV shells, you probably have a series of very thin triangle shells, where there's a distance of 0.00001 between two points.… -
Lost Power When Working in UDK- now can't load map.
I lost power when working on a map in UDK and the power randomly went out, and came back on right away. But now I can't open my map at all. I load the external packages the map requires, and then try to load the map, and UDK instantly crashes. This is what is in the log: Log: Log file open, 12/04/12 21:49:07Init: WinSock:… -
Solved: Dynamask Removes Materials from Object
Really weird problem I've got today. Started working on my model that I worked on (fine) yesterday. I started loading in some materials and wanted to change the dynamask. So, I press the edit dynamask button, go into Quick Editing mode and then it doesn't go into Dynamask, and it removes my material.. Really odd, really… -

mental ray AO baking and floating geometry
Hello! mental ray AO baking in 3ds max much flexible and faster then scanline, but there is a problem with shadows under floating geometry. In this thread http://wiki.polycount.com/AmbientOcclusionMap#LBM talked about manually define the max distance of rays, but this is not right solution because it affect on whole AO.… -

Any suggestions? Comments? Critiques? Specs. Programs: 3DS Max 2011 for initial model (so difficuuult) and animation, and Mudbox 2012 for… -
Y up importing issue
So i've been trying to get some meshes inside UE4 and i get a weird issue that i think is related to the Up axis orientation. I'm exporting from max 2015 using FBX 2013 with the Y up option, but my meshes receive correct lighting only when rotated 90 degress on the Y axis in UE. You can see the mesh without any material… -

Looking for some feedback for a character I modelled in 3ds max
So here's one the first characters I ever rendered back in 2013 ....juxtaposed with a new and improved version of the same character. The character was modeled in 3D Studio Max 2015 (Yeah I'm a little out of date) with some tweaking done in Zbrush. Hair was modeled using an IMM brush set in Zbrush. Rigging: I painstakingly… -
ShaderFX - importing old SFX graphs?
I have several older ShaderFX shader graphs (SFX files) which I created a few years ago when Shader FX was a 3rd-party tool. Does anyone know if these can be loaded in the new integrated version of ShaderFX that ships with 3ds Max 2015? I've tried, but I get import errors. Maybe there's a converter out there? I would hate…
