I hope Ai goes down! Then all my loans will go bye-bye :) waedoe! Long time no see brotha! Been a while, and your work is getting awesome! As far as modeling and the baking maps goes, your set my man. Get some more contrast and grit to those textures and keep at it man. See ya round, and if your ever in southern California…
Hey gang! I need some expert 3DS Max help I'm working with a character studio biped that was supplied to me and I'm noticing some strange things. I'm using planted keys for a lot of the foot work and when you do a planted key, you get a red marker that will show where the foot will pivot from. so here's the thing - on the…
Hi there, I'm trying to use setAttr, but insert my own variable name from earlier in my script. I keep getting a syntax error, can anyone see what I'm doing wrong here. I'm trying to apply a planar map to a polygon object and then set the projection height to 400, but I can't figure out why my variable name is causing a…
So I know there is the cool little program called Switcher that lets you transfer your Maya view port ability's to Max but is there one that transfers from Max to Maya? I prefer Max to Maya ten fold but need to get back into the swing of the things with Maya. I would prefer to keep the Max way of doing things as I like Max…

You could disable texture filtering as well as any render setting filtering to get a more "pixelish" styled render as you might see in many of the other threads with lowpoly art. This would be more representative to how it would look on an iPhone (I think?)…
One thing I keep seeing in GDC talks and similar things is these CEO's wrapped up in controversy doing everything but owning their fuck-ups. This is extremely unprofessional and a terrible example of how to run a business. I doubt it's any coincidence that these are the same companies losing billions and drawing scrutiny…
there's no difference, it's whatever the current buzz word is. Townie a few years ago, chav now. That's why i prefer to stick with the more descriptive "hateful knacker scum" something that confuses me about these people - not being able to talk properly is one thing, but it's also not being able to see. I mean, how can…
I take to 3d with this mindset. I do it for fun, all my life I wanted a way to realize my visualizations, and when I found 3d, I found my medium for doing so. I get much more satisfaction from learning something new than I do from beating a game or playing a game. I'm not saying that working in 3d is always more fun than…
