Maxscript - Probably a simple fix
Dear Polycount, Greetings! I am new to the ranks and have a quick question for any Maxscript pros out there. This is probably a simple fix and I am just missing something. The Effect: The effect that I have been charged with creating is a sort of card flipping visual you commonly see at sporting events where each person… -
Maya Arnold question, Solidangle Scenes
I tried to import my mesh from substance painter to maya but I didn not get it to look right in Arnold. So I decided to start with the basics and follow the Arnold tutorials first. Unfortunately the files provided in the solidangle learning area https://support.solidangle.com/display/AFMUG/Learning+Scenes do not look like… -
Re: 3d action game development
:astonished: Correct true to life, maybe a horse really far away and hardly visible can be free in the bg. lmao. Not something i thought I'd ever read but i am amused by the free old-p.c. convo. (ah the memories) so many cats. Back to game, mmm that is one decent use of these a.i. action scripts at least, smarter a.i.… -
Re: How do I set proper local rotation axis for A-posed arm joints?
martenzander said: Yes, it's very common. I think that tutorial just tried to make things simple and in doing so made things more complicated than it needed to be. Here are some other tutorials that go through the process with the arms in an A-Pose. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOokoFED7QE… -
Re: Games that inspired you to get into games development (all areas)
Many games inspired me to go into my career. but these are the ones that made it easy for me to test out stuff in :D Excite Bike was one of the few games that let you make your own tracks and I loved it when I was a kid. Metroid I did not edit in any form but I drew tons of drawings of levels with repeated tile sets on… -

Re: Low Poly Hardware Specs
On UDK I got 70~80 skinned meshes on screen chasing the player (1 player 5 bones, NPC 3 bones instanced). Each mesh was about 470 tris. Environment was about 13k. One texture (1024x1024) for the environment, using a UDK made lightmap, one texture for the NPC and one for the character. With Unity there's so much you have to… -
Re: 3ds Max Motion Capture Animation Question
I really don't fully understand what you're trying to do with the arms and guns either, but you can filter out limbs in the motion mixer. You can also use biped layers to reposition and reanimate pieces. You can also load .bip animations into layers so you could use mixer to filter in/out the arms, save out .bip animations… -
Re: Sketchbook: Janelle Desborough
Been keeping plenty busy with projects, so here are some renders to add to the sketchbook! This is the first pass on modeling our family Durango (which served as great real-life reference until it was traded in o.o). Shown here it's a hefty 11,393 polys (22,306 tris) and built to be subdivided. Done within two weeks. I'm… -
Re: i was hoping to post good news today...
It's definitely hard man, I can only imagine what the both of you have gone through with the pregnancy issue. I know you left a career you hated for one you loved and have stumbled some in that way, but I wouldn't suggest going back. Life is too short to be working a job you hate. Do what you love and be happy, even though…
