Re: PowerPreview: High Quality Nitrous Previews (3ds Max)
One button seems to be broken, when I disable "Use Safe Frame": -- Error occurred in anonymous codeblock; filename: C:\Users\His\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2025 - 64bit\ENU\scripts\SF_PowerPreview.mse; position: 109934; line: 3572 -- MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception: -- Unknown property: "updateUI" in undefined --… -
Re: MaxScriptin'
Hot Buttered Funk on a stick, it works! What this script does: For each sound track loaded it creates a batch render view and sets the start/end frames and output path for each view to that of the track. It is VERY specific to my work flow, but will help anyone having to lip sync and render many audio clips. This is going… -
Seeking Feedback: Am I on Track? Portfolio Review and Project Time Estimates
I'm seeking some guidance and feedback on my current work pace and portfolio. I've been working on several projects, and I'd like to get your input on whether my time estimates seem reasonable or if I need to make adjustments. Here's a breakdown of my recent work with estimated completion times: Portfolio Link:… -
[UE4] Sci-Fantasy environment. (Focus on materials & technical).
S'been a while since I have posted anything. Figure I would share what I have been working on~ This all began during my time at Bungie (Environment Artist 2012-2014). I was primarily doing world building & some modeling in max. We had a dedicated material/texture guy, so I mostly pulled from a library of existing tiling… -
Re: Sketchbook: fly_soup
The way the Soft Selection rollout in the command panel breaks the layout was bothering me, so I wrote my first MaxScript. The part where it determines the falloff based on the size of the object was blatantly ripped from a script written by someone else, who I'd credit if I could remember who it was or find the script.… -
Re: Single Map Directional Lightmap. How to bake?
Well you need light intensity + color + maybe shadow...That's a lot for a single rgba map. The only way to use 1 single map is the way epic did citadel demo : baking a huuuge lightmap that could catch all the normal maps details in it. At the end, the normal maps aren't needed anymore. Bye bye to specularity. from another… -

Re: Cold One (1st Zbrush model)
you need to rethink your forms, forget the texture for now. the model itself should be your main focus at this point as it looks nothing like a Nauglir (cold one). you need to give greater bulk to the rib area, and the hind legs. its legs need to look like they can cary the 1 1/2 ton of weight that its body holds, the tail… -

Re: Misc 3dsmax questions
To get the material maxscript working you can record the actions with the max script listener (lower right corner, right click the pink box and choose open listener), under macro recorder, enable everything. Then preform your actions and see what kind of code it spits out. for me when I assign a material to slot 1 in the…
