1st off I'm using an ATI 9500, so I'm probably encountering problems not associated with with Maya, but the Video Card. Even so, all I want to do is apply a flat painted map to an object. The object is already UV Mapped. Everytime I get a Lambert Material, click on Color-File and select File in 2D Textures I end up with:…
Hello everyone, I have a mesh of a tree that has a lot of leaves. For optimising the amount of objects Maya has to deal with, these leaves are combined in a single object. I am trying to assign a random colour to every leaf in the leaf-object. The problem is that I cannot do that using the default attributes in Arnold…

I am wondering if there is a better way than using simple grass wind. Anyway to simulate better movements in ue4? I am pondering animating this in blender using shape keys or something. I really don't like the movements the simple grass wind provides (too robotic and doesn't move realistically). I noticed there is a…
I'm a huge fan of vertex painting but sometimes I wish I had more verts and adding them sometimes seems like a waste especially on larger surfaces. So I thought about using mesh paint instead and wanted to share this in case it might help someone. Here is my test, I ended up using the same setup as a typical 'advance…
Hi! I have a cube with one packed texture but the texture has four different parts(metal/clean metal/rubber/plastic). Each part has its own mask in another packed texture. Also there is alpha channel with another mask for scratches in the same packed mask texture. I use separate color nodes for each cube part(except clean…
Hi all, So I've encountered an issue with Substance Painter 2 for a little bit now. For some materials that I have downloaded and put them in the materials folder in the shelf folder, and when I start up Substance Painter 2, sometimes the materials won't load up properly, or won't be recognized correctly. By this I mean…

Rima What I said was that young woman facial proportions deviations for example are more focused around lets say not "perfected by nature" if it offends you but rather just around certain genetic optimum . No massive noses , prominent cranial details . big ears , anything that would make picturing a man simpler by just…
