Re: Anyone tried creating assets for ArmA 3?
Cool. Do you have transparency on the sight? And if so is it all one mesh? I had troubles assigning the glass rvmat (which was a 2 part rvmat) to certain polygons—it would appear correctly set up in the editor, but in buldozer ALL polygons used the glass rvmat, rather than just those I selected and assigned it to. You… -
Re: closed
StJoris: Thank you, that is just what I needed. Sectaurs: I have added another cut in the loincloth, I would not want it to be jaggy when he sits down or something, it could be bad. Kovac: Thank you, see below. oglemeanimations: It is necessary for proper air flow But no, really its just a design choice. I could have… -

Reply by sugoilord · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Creative Contest 2017› Riot Creative Contest 2017 - IllustrationNot fully done with this concept render, still needs to be fleshed out more but I need to get going with the colors for the illustration.

Re: Ask A Fellow Polycounter - "Maya Mental Ray Issue"

Pyro, I tried running the command line but it's… -

Re: Character /Creature Modeling reel 2006
I just found out i have double standards, after reading johny and Bill's posts. I found out i thought johny was hilarious for trying to sound all clever and whatnot, but writing like you'd expect a 9 y/o to, and then especially the bit that went "its my mind speaking" pretty much made me spit my drink. I feel like such a… -

Re: [Technical Talk] - FAQ: Answers to common 3D software issues
Problem in max: Every time when I rotate an object and after that I want to align vertices/edges/faces with the X Z an Y buttons in the 'edit geometry' section. It aligns according to the orientation of the object instead of the world. This seems fine to me. But here's the problem: when I change the orientation of the… -
Re: 3ds Max UVW Map issue
Box mapping has its uses, but is more of a hindrance more often than not. Sometimes it makes a good starting point. A better way of doing it is to add a unwrap UVW modifer to your building. when in your unwrap UVW Modifier, select the faces you want to be on one plane of the box, in your map parameters roll out, select the…
