Re: "Smooth Group Import" plugin for zbrush???
This functionality is built into ZB4> isn't it? You can do this with the CREASE button inside the geometry pallete, unless I'm not understanding what you are after? I've just tried it and it worked fine here on ZB 4.2 r1. Send the object with smoothing groups setup to ZBrush using GoZ, open the GEOMETRY pallete, press the… -
Re: PC Build / Upgrade Advice
You can get that i7 4770k over 4ghz no problem with the Noctua, 4.2 stable. A Corsair 500W PSU is not enough: You will want to upgrade at a later date and 750W would be my recommendation at a minimum for this current build choice. Your SSD costs almost 3 times the PSU :poly122: go for the Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H I come out at… -
Re: Search and Rescue helicopter: Ka-27PS "Helix"
Smooth group splits. I split the mesh along UV seams, since UV seams already break the mesh up. It's actually probably a bad habit, but I physically split the meshes up (disconnect component in XSI parlance), since my old-ass version of XSI (4.2) has a normal baker that doesn't comprehend hard edges. I'm sure it would be… -

Re: Unwrap Tools 1.6 and UV Toolbox 1.7
incorporated the icon and macroscript technique into my TexTools release (your code was a nice help to figure stuff out with the icons): http://boards.polycount.net/showpost.php?p=991290&postcount=472 I changed the icon though and added a command to refresh the icon cache in 3dsmax (on the installation), otherwise you… -
Re: Comcast gobbles up NBC
its baaack. Didn't want to start a new one and end up in the hotseat like Ben. However, i do believe beyond personal feelings. This can effect us. What if say, Comcast doesnt like the traffic that a game uses. So blocks access to that online game unless say you the publisher (or client) pay a fee?… -
Re: Standard model format?
I thought .3ds could support animation but it's pretty crappy, I mean old. FBX seems to be pretty good, but when bringing in files from one program to another some things work and others don't. I think you should just try it an see what works for you. XSI can import straight out of the box after version 4.2 3ds, obj, fbx… -
