Re: ZDepth within shader, usages?
Depth comes in two varieties, (sorry i'll use ue3 terms dunno what proper ones are) Pixel Depth is the distance from the camera to the pixel on the object. Scene depth is the distance from the camera to the pixel on the scene either in front of the object or behind it. With pixel depth you can make the object change color… -
Re: weapons for ebear world - WIP
looks all a bit random, maybe you can elaborate a bit more what ebears world is. I noticed this online: http://ebearsworld.blogspot.com/2009/01/ebears-weapon-concepts.html seems not to be the most recent entry. I would expect more this kind of concept quality and not the first drafts because they basicly do not even… -
Re: attach spline to a biped
I've only ever made small attempts to rig anything with a spline in max, but in maya you have to link the control objects of the spline (cv curve) to the parent object (head in your case), since they determine the curving of the spline, not the spline itself. If you're deforming the spline by manually animating the control… -
Re: Concept Character - War Machine
Holy! This looks nice and clean. I am trying to learn hard surface modeling. But I am having difficulty in making clean models where the object has both HARD edges and smooth curved surfaces as well. I am using 3ds Max. I usually model in editable poly and use chamfer on the edges that I want to be sharp corners. Then I… -
Re: Need input for this level
top view wise it looks good (just like the drawing) but I think from 1st person view and within the scene it falls apart. There are just not enough details to keep the scene together. But maybe this is only because of the blurry textures - also most textures don't have any highlight support (sharp, reflective edges,… -
Re: How could i unwrap this?
A quick way to copy/clone one bolt to all the others is to detach all the bolts as separate objects, select them all go to the hierarchy tab, click Affect Pivot Only, click Center To Object. Then right click your UV'ed bolt and clone it, hit shift-A to switch to quick align mode, now click a bolt and the clone will snap to… -
Flipped UVW faces Oh My...
Hello Poycount. OK, Sorry Newb here, but i've been trying to figure this out by myself to no avail. I started my first full model in Max as a simple crate tutorial from Youtube. I followed it basically move for move and when i was all proud of myself and got it all uv unwrapped to bake, i found out i had dozens of flipped… -

Stuck on 3D Coat's retopo & baking workflow
Hello! I've been looking for the best workflow from the time that I import a model into 3DC until it's ready to bake and export. Problem is, I have found hardly any information or documentation on things that I desire to do. I am looking to bake an object, made of multiple subobjects, and bake it, and all the videos that I… -
