Re: Using someone else's shader
[ QUOTE ] the simple fact is that using pre-existing material is clearly cheating. Particularly when developing games, everything that an artist does should be, first and foremost, for self-improvement and self-fulfilment - the actual development process and end product are largely irrelevant. What do you think you're… -
Re: Snap question
Being a former Maya user myself, I can only recommend ditching Switcher (which I've also tried) & take the plunge. Switcher is eventually going to cost money, and there's a good chance your workplace (unless you're freelance) won't be willing to pony up the cash to purchase the plugin. It's gonna be a pain in the ass for… -
Re: Maya Pelting tools plugin - Help needed
The cleanup function doesnt take care of double edges, for me at least. If you find thats true for yourself heres a script I threw together few days ago. It saves your selection so it can be used at any time during the modeling process, though is a little finicky with edge selections sense it changes their order when… -
Re: Photoshop showing 32bit Normal maps from Marmoset washed out

If its set to single it will render all the frames to a single frame… -

Re: Painter: Update/refresh all maps
Hey, years later into the discussion but there doesn't seem to be an official solution for this. I got into this stuff recently so, I decided to write a little script/ plugin for the same purpose. Check it out, this definitely helped me save some hassle. Link: https://aurifexchandra.gumroad.com/l/vtyyw -
Re: What to do with this lamellar armor (retopology and bake)
If for some reason you still want such detailed geometry for close LOD project/ transfer/ borrow vertex normals from next LOD without that extra geometry. You will see no shading gradients if you don't have them on that "next" lod . Use attribute transfer in Maya, data transfer modifier in Blender or 3d party scripts for… -
Re: New Shelves on Zbrush
That area is the Zscript Window - you can't place objects there since it is a text field. Just use the 'H' key to hide it (or ZScript > Hide ZScript), and place your buttons under or above the existing ones instead. -
SoftImage questions from a max user
