Re: Nitrous is awful, alternative 3DS Max 2015 Viewport Shaders?
@almighty_gir I have, and indeed it's crap, but there's really not a lot of options ever since AD abandoned the DX drivers and switched to Nitrous.

Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge November 2015 (35)
@rago Nice silhouettes so far! I like how you're retaining the main negative space in the middle. How many sculpts in total are you using?

Re: Head Topology
Topology can be done in various ways, with certain rules to work from. You seem to already know the basics, but like you said, there's a funky network of edges on the cheeks. Using poles is the simplest way to keep a clean mesh: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1247603 In short, poles are used to redirect… -
Re: UDK: Terrain & Foliage related questions
