So I am doing some rigging in 3ds max 2017 and I'm noticing a particularly annoying occurrence. When using the Bone Tools rollout menu from the Animation panel I can go along working just fine. After a while however I notice that the "Bone Edit Mode" button becomes grayed out and unclickable. Closing and opening the…
Ok, so after GDC I decided it was time to get my shit together and get a page up so I could, you know, get a job, and not have to bow my head in shame every time I met someone. I figured August was a good deadline. My desktop now has these little colonies of files growing in various places. None of which look like a web…
So with vertex normals, when you try to shade a simple cone, you have to use a lot of geometry or a normal map. Because if you try to use just 1 vertex on top, the back side will not shade correctly. And if you use quads with a flat cylinder top, you get these hard smoothing edges from the tris. I know the simplest…
cmon dude, shaderfx is nodebasex, just screw around with the nodes until a descent result comes out, everyone could do that you dont even have to understand linear algebra (if youre not using the custim code node) http://www.lumonix.biz/shaderfx.html download, install, just do it !
you can scale the UVs going into a maya texture node and indeed that data will not be passed through when the model is exported. in principle, if you apply the same transform to UVs plugged into a texture sampler in unreal it should give you the same result - if there's a difference it could be a few things - the texture…
TL;DR My website with portfolio (check YouTube channel for more) http://sergeizemtsev.tumblr.com/ If you want:* Atmospheric and eerie soundtracks in the spirit of Yume Nikki * Paranoid post-punk and insecurity like Berserk and Paprika soundtracks * If you conceived Persona and Danganronpa in the darkest colors * You need…
Alright everybody, it's here again! (Crept up on me, for sure!) Share your inktobers with everyone here. Let's make this another great year! Inktober 01 - got some warming up to do..
I think if you like both programming and art your best bet would be on technical art. Technical artist is a guy who serves as a bridge between coders and artists. Daily responsibilities can include writing shaders, coding tools for artists, setting up animation state machines, optimizing game assets, writing technical…
Ok, I looked at the first error code; http://forums.nvidia.com/lofiversion/index.php?t63287.html Seems to be a sata driver error BUT it would be alot more helpful if you explained about the error: when it happens, how quickly etc etc. The majority here are not Microsoft engineers so all these codes are pretty much…
Here is a screenshot showing the xn4's shader editor: Node-based as promised :D You won't need to write a line of code. I think it's much more intuitive in that way, isn't it? It will be used for both realtime and offline shaders ( the node list is incomplete currently... when you select the "offline" mode instead of the…
