Hey sorry for the delay. Glad you problem solved and figured it out on your own! By the looks of your screenshot, you`re overthinking it! You don't need to dive into the properties to do it. Just right click Visibility and hit key selected Just type on and off to switch between the two. If you're using an object you didnt…
Nothing wrong with seeing what works best in a free to try/item sales game. Obviously players will want everything to be free. If you read the actual pricing changes and not Kotaku's "unbiased" "reporting," you can see that they have reduced the prices on a some essential things. The game is still free to try and explore,…
Well yah I can see its use for things like glasses, trophies and random items. Things like these I can easily visualize where and how I should make the spline cage, but he insists that he can do full high poly characters with it. Just the thought of making a spine cage for a fully detailed character almost gives me hives.…
Thanks Fat_Cap for the advice but no I made the map in Maya, it might be easier if I include some shots of the map and results in Z mapper The test item is a handle to a stein Here is the UV map Now inside Zmapper after the Map is done generating (that says *bump mapping not active* and *Cavity shading not active*) And…

How are you doing the shadows under the dining table? You're right I'll need a better scene. That first room was a quickie to explore how to do the window blinds,…
I cannot recommend my Y series Lenovo enough. I does in fact have a 960m insteaed of a 980m, but damn is it a SOLID laptop (and also 300 less + new instead of open box + 16gb of RAM). I have the Y500, first gen of the line, and 3 years later it still feels and runs new. I do however take very good care of it, it should be…
In case anyone is curious on this I found a way for this to somewhat work. You can link a foliage brush to a specific layer when you paint placement on the landscape. With that knowledge, you create a layer within the material that has no diffuse, normal, etc. information. It is just a named layer that a weight map can be…
Everything you want is possible but each item is a subject in its own right - you're covering at least 3 disciplines here and presumably being asked to develop a system alongside it. Were I tasked with this I would want to spend a fair bit of time prototyping various solutions with block-out meshes so I could settle on…
