Re: Importing Max 2015 UI into Max 2018 UI issues (Quads and Menus issue)
Never ever merge/load old Max mnux files or cuix files directly into newer Max versions. This is a main entry point for instability and at least loose of functionality. The menu parsing algo can get Max to crash when there is something illogical ( eg. circular loop: submenu containing it's parent menu ) in the mnux file.… -
Re: SOLVED: no mesh model in 3do + missing texture on some parts of mesh.
So i Took a look at your obj-file, and straight away upon opening it Maya warned that there where multiple meshgroups in the file. Here is how it looks in The Suite: As you can see, The Suite recognizes serveral meshgroups, this is why you can texture your entire mesh, because when you only select inputs for one group the… -
Re: Yet Another Portfolio Critique
@Shrike I think the problem I was having with JPG was that wix compresses everything you upload and it tears apart edges and just doesn't look great. Might have to look into learning some HTML and just make my own site or get one of our devs to help me. There are plenty of assets to fill the rooms and surrounding areas but… -
Re: Venus.Aero - an indie flight sim trailer [COMPLETE]
Stop me if this is too off-topic, since I know this is pre-rendered. But I've started doing some look dev for the trailer. I'm using volumetrics for the clouds but I'm wondering how to duplicate the effect in real time. I had messed around with sprites and found a way to do it, but I can't rig the shaders right in Modo.… -
Re: Coming out of final year - Portfolio
Cheers for the great advice guys. I've also decided to ditch the plans I had for one of my modules for creating a great rig and using MAXScript. I'll still do some scripting in my spare time, but instead I'll use that module to create an environment. Not really sure how I'm going to pass the module (it's my dissertation… -

Re: How do I know what should be normal mapped/baked in an environment?
Judgement call. As a general rule, a workflow that allows you the greatest ability to make changes quickly and easily is good. You may make a really nice hydrant by sculpting in zbrush, but you can make 50 unique hydrants in half the time with a few procedural materials and mask that might still hit your target visual… -
Re: The Game Developer's Exam
toilet humor!! does your mulit-level multi-building super secret military/research/secret base have a single restroom facility for the hundreds of employees/gaurds? does the player have to kill an enemy to gain access to a required item in said restroom? is the restroom the site of major occurence (new strong enemy or… -
Re: Animator portfolio! - need Demo Reel Crits
Okay @Tim Deneau - THANK YOU SO MUCH. super big help, I really appreciate it. I have located, and deleted the infected JS files. And i have re-uploaded clean ones. Shitty part is that google has flagged my site as containing malicious software. This puts my job hunting for the time being at a complete stand still. Fucking… -
Re: Having massive trouble PBR texturing. Help needed please
From your reference, I can see the object has paint layer, and bronze underneath. I would set up exactly how it is: a first bronze layer that cover entire object, then a paint layer on top WITH custom mask (grunge mask, or even hand painted mask) that will reveal the bronze layer underneath => simulate the way the paint…
