ok, im not a max fan and use it just for animation in one of my jobs, but apparently you are doing the xforms in the wrong time, if it works like the freeze transformation or delete history from the maya, you will lose the skin other think you add 1 for influence of the head and neck? the right is that each vertex have 1…
Amazing work! I love it :) If this wouldn't get into the game nothing will.. I've did some concepting / high poly modeling on a rifle for Sniper. Wanted to go for an different direction. The idea is that the rifle can transformed into a very long range barrel. Not really sure about the gear like object on the front. A real…
@Onilolz thats just epic!!! I'll definitely try the new marmoset! :D @Delmo: very cool crab hook! :) @cottonwings try to clean the history and freeze all axis transformations before skinning (if you are using maya). It seems the center of the object isn't itself, or it's axis are not 0 :P Well, me and Magno are doing a set…
A drop in the bucket, but I tend to weigh critique here pretty heavily and give it a lot of thought :) I agree, there needs to be more solo items that are impactful. That was another reason I wanted to make this transform; I realized without some sort of gimmick or theme, this would just be another item, but people tend to…
It should be skinned to "head" at least that's where mine is skinned too. Make sure it's not on any of the antenna joints if you aren't using them. The only other thing I can do is make sure you don't have any existing history on the object, make sure your transformations are clear. It should be a pretty simple skin…
if it works with a box should work with the sword do a freeze transformations no maya or reset xform on max before skinning yay, another courier! i just dont like the idea of propelers, i think it doesnt fit... some of then on the game is just something with wings =[ or something with jetpack. the tegu or the badger have…
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I'll give it a try. Since I'm not a 3D artist I thought I could share my concept piece of a Dota 2 courier idea that I had, and if you're a good 3d artist feel free to use the concept. :) Anyway it's A unicycling toad! The thought is that when in flying mode the…
I've never heard of freezing, how would I do it/what does it do? I sort of figured out that I need to map the bones to my geometry before exporting, but if I freeze the geometry can I not select it again or...? edit: I think I found something, 'freeze transformations'? I'll see if that does anything. Annnnnd still tiny.…
Hey....does anyone have access to a Maya file with all of Jugg's animations? I am having a hard time getting the skinning to look right on his back slot. I'm getting close but it would be extremely helpful if I knew how he animates. and can anyone tell me why the particle on my sword is wrong? It looks likes its just the…
Just some general 3ds max troubleshooting I'm having an issue with while trying to do some bakes: anyone know what to do if you place a light in the viewport and nothing appears? It still casts light onto my objects but the little diamond node thing(that the transform gizmo sits on) that should appear isn't appearing! So…
