Re: 3ds Max cloth over-stretching issue
It's normally being pinched some place, folding in on itself and unable to straighten it back out, or your settings are really loose and springy with the gravity cranked too high. It might sound weird but typically you want a lot more verts to have smooth cloth simulations. I'll typically have a piece of cloth that is… -
Character Upgrade systems in games?
I'm looking into Character Systems in games, but I feel my slight lack of current-gen gaming knowledge is doing me a disservice! The 3 types of character system I've been looking at are: "WoW Style" where you can change multiple items on your character/ "Fortnite Style" where a whole outfit is chosen with no furhter… -
Problem creating lightmaps in 3DS Max for UDK.
I have followed a few different tutorials. All show the same method of swapping to your second UV channel and resetting the UV's. However, every time i swap to the second channel, I am prompted with a message asking me if i want to move or abandon changes. When I choose to abandon (as i don't wish to move my co-ordinates… -
Re: Cape Chronicles stuff goes here!
Yes, why not make all 4? After all, they are just different helmets and a color swap. That said, 2 and 4 would work the best because of the slightly larger details. Which would make them read better at small on-screen sizes. On the other hand, the silhouette is rather plain, while 1 and 3 have a sort of centerline… -
Re: Advice on what to do with my life
Interestingly enough, the only place I've ever worked that actually asked about or cared to see my high school diploma was when I worked for a high school as a night shift janitor. Everywhere else was more concerned with my credit scores. Honestly it seems to me like you've got a pretty good feel for what you need to do.… -
Re: A gameart desktop
From what I´ve heard, ATI cards tend to whigg out a bit more than Nvidia ones in programs like 3D max, maya, etcetera because of driver issues. So I´d say go for an Nvidia; A 570 or 560 should do it - those also have a really high bang-per-buck. ( http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/gpu_list.php is a very useful site for… -
Re: SUITE 2.0 status update!
SkyGround, don't get me wrong [I like Substance too] but «not seriously» is posting something like you did without any technical info. Be a little bit more precise so they can find bugs and squash them. OS/PS version, RAM/CPU/GPU, SSD or HDD, GPU driver version, polygon count of model? On my side I have only 8 gigs and… -
Re: LOD resources/information anyone?
I have 3 methods. - For mechanical objects I'll normally block out the base shape and add detail in another modifier on top of the block out so I'm not stuck having to remove a bunch of stuff to get it back to a rough shape. - For organic non-deformable objects, like rocks or rubble, I'll normally ProOptimize it with… -
Re: Car guys (and gals)
I "Drive" 95 Mitsubishi GSX, and a 92 Eagle talon. Drive is in quotes because if you know any thing of DSM's you know they are broken or being worked on more often than driven ;) The Eclipse is my project car.. Started off as an 95 Eagle talon AWD that had the transfercase locked up.. and cause lots of drive train damage.… -

Hey folks! So, was doing a little research on npr/anime-like modelling/texturing and took a look at the Ace Attorney models available here, specifically Phoenix Wright. Inspecting the model, I noticed that they've a bunch of alternate parts for upper and lower faces and hands. Trying to guess why the model is setup this…
