Re: (Maya) How to straighten organic UVs?
can you merge UVs in maya that do not belong to each other as vertices? that helps a ton in max to get things straight. and no, pinning does not do the same job. as pinning makes sure verts do not move at all. But i want them to move, just in a way that they can balance themselves out. -
Re: Why can't do this
This drawing uses 2-point perspective. The 3ds Max viewport is 3-point (Perspective or Camera view) or 0-point/orthagonal (all the other views). If you use V-Ray, you can use a V-Ray camera to turn on vertical correction, and thus get 2-point perspective in the viewport. -
Re: WIP Dunny
you're going to have a hell of a time making the seam anything other than the harsh vertical line it is now. since your pixel ratios are so different, any details you paint on one side will look vastly different on the other, should you try and make the split look more organic. -
Re: Base of a Human Character (My 1st)
I think most people would like to see a bit more before commenting. One thing I'd say right now is that you'll probably want an edge loop cutting your model in half vertically, for easy mirroring. And if your modelling program allows it, don't triangulate your mesh at this stage. -
Re: What is the polycount for "next-gen" consoles?
The 360 does somewhere near 50 million vertices per second in theory (if memory serves me correctly). Cut that in half for real world cases, then if you want a 30 fps game, divide that by 30. 800,000 verts per frame. Divide it up how you wish across characters & world. -
Re: seams and normal maps
Also, if your engine has problems displaying the normals correctly with seams, it helps to have the offending edges as parallel to each other as possible, best horizontally or vertically, and to have them running in places where the lowpoly is quite close to the highpoly anglewise, so it's working more as a bumpmap than… -
Re: Current WIPs. C&C appreciated.
Im really digging the High Tech Lab. Is it your own concept? The Scanner/Analyzer is SOOO clean! Very believable. Is the environment for game production? If so, the only thing that throws me off a bit is the high resolution of the vertical cylindars in the back. Mad props if you decide to texture this env as well. -sniz -
Re: arshlevon's custom Zbrush interfaces
Hey arshlevon, this is a great interface, but I'm wondering - is there a way to completely turn "tutorial view" off? It takes some vertical space I'd rather be using for the document size. /edit wow, never midn that, it went away by itself when I restarted. Now this is a nice clean interface with max space. Thanks. -
Re: Modern highpoly flying dutchman [WIP]
Good idea JKMakowka, that's now on my to do list. I'll also make a bullethole into the water jerrycan on the side. The tires are already bent vertically, but only a small amount. I think I could add a bit more, this would propably fit the idea of a ghost jeep well. Thanks Gauss and Ninjas! -
Re: kicking it out of the system - Fantastique Electron
hey pior this is looking tight as always :D only comment would be on the back cilinder shape you added some vertical cilinders (3 ) and that is making that area too busy imo on some shapes that were real clean and well read :) but thats my mexican brain what can i SAY !
