Re: Modo 601
That combination should work as well but I use element as the axis because it allows me to choose a reference edge. I don't grab the boarder of the shell. I grab the internal bits using ring/loop in the uv window and it works fine for me. It's not as automated as max but it's what's there. I'll have to look around but… -
Re: HK UMP45 WIP
You've got the right idea for the most parts. Your UV map is good. There is some wasted space, and I see some things that could be mirrored which would give you even more space to play with. Not too bad, though. The stretching on the grip does look a bit much. You may have to cut some edges there to relax it. About the… -
Re: Substance Designer - Master Thread
Yes more or less : I iterate "theAmountOfYpixels" times, the pattern in the fx map node an offset it on each pixel on the Y axis. I set the blend to "max", therefore the brightest is kept. Nicolas Wirrmann gave me a trick to diminish the amount of iterations in the FX-map node by duplicating before with 2D transform… -
Re: 3DS Max bend issues
Have you tried x and z axis as well? Whenever i use bend modifier i need to switch between the three of them to find the best one and even rotate it a little to get what i want. -
Re: FACs Facial Animation System for 3ds MAX
Awesome thread! This looks amazing! I can't believe you put so much work into making it... wow! I was inspired by that same talk and started messing around with my own set up making improvements, but never got as far as you did. I normally have the morphs wired to a control board and load/save the positions of the animated… -
Re: UV unwrap a low poly rectangular box?
While this thread is good for best practices in UV unwrapping in a general sense I am interested on how to apply these best practices in specific scenarios. What I'll do is provide my methods of applying UV unwrapping practices and at any moment if you see parts of what I do that isn't really good or up to best practices… -
Re: Zbrush Taper problem
The behavior might have changed between that video and the latest version of Zbrush. If you're on 4R8, try changing the Taper's axis to just "Y" (the opposite of the video, which has X and Z on). -
Re: New Here
Ok, my specialty isnt modelling, and i suck at texturing, but from what i can tell is your main issue right now is UV layout. I dont know what your texture size is, but the reason it looks so blurry as low resolutions is because you arent effectively using your UV space. I did a really quick mushroom like yours, just to… -
Re: zBrush rotation
Make sure Local and Rotate on All Axis are turned on, and it should be normal behavior as far as rotating goes. Clicking on the mesh sets the pivot point. -
Re: Maya 2014 finally gets a huge update to its modeling tools!
Heh I didn't mean to start a maya vs softimage arguement either :P What I would like to do is keep discussing how to make maya a better product for us modelers. Perhaps I'm using the wrong terminology. When I say something like "streamlined workflow" I mean tools that work smoothly together. For instance in the maya 2014…
