Re: [Maya] Affect Pivot Only Max equivalent?
I'm not sure I'm clear on what you want, but I do remember that function in Max as a way to change the rotational axis for an object. I don't think Maya has anything like that exactly (I've wanted it on multiple occasions), but if you set your object to the orientation you want, hitting Freeze Transformations will shift… -
Re: Unity 3D - So who all here is using it and for what
I'm making a small game called 'Tie'. It's functionally complete, and I've just started on the art for it. I am also making a game called 'The Deep', which will also be put out after 'Tie' is up. It's nearly done. And lastly, my baby, 'Far'. It's on and off in the development area, but when I finish up my other stuff, I… -
Re: Mirrored UV Baking Issues
Ok, follow up bake question. Getting gnarly artifacts on the cross-section parts of the cover. Its a tricky area of geometry; the global extrude function in xNormal doesn't scale well for the interior cut out areas, requiring manual adjustment. Haven't yet found a good way to get a clean bake yet. Any insights on how to… -
Re: UE4 Interactivity question - Material callouts
I think there is plenty of info out there about creating UMG interfaces so will skip that for now. The material retrieving can be done using a line trace from the center of the camera. The hit result will have the info you need to plug into another function called Get Material from Face Index. Demonstrated in this vid:… -
Re: Male Anatomy practice - looking for feedback
Yep, you're right. Thanks for the correction. About muscle function, just remember muscles only contract. They stick onto two different bones, and they contract, which makes movement. So even if you haven't read about a certain muscle, if you can see where it connects to the bones, just squeeze it together with your minds… -
Re: Fire particle
I usually just use a flickering material(you know panning clouds) as light function in case of flickering lights,in which case i can actually sync the flickering with the flickering used in the light's material itself,works pretty well and is quite efficient,but a matinee controlled light effect works nice too,little bit… -
Re: 3D Environment Artist Portfolio - Taber Noble
This is some great work you guys are doing. I love the sense of scale and lighting in these environments. The church in particular The only improvement I could suggest is the train. It's a focal point but it took me awhile to figure out what it was. After looking at the wireframe, it became difficult to identify the… -

Re: How Many of You Use Photogrammetry Textures?
Photogrammetry, and Scanned Textures are widely used, at least at our studio (and I assume at others). When it comes to blending different scanned textures, it is quiet easy to do it, at least in Substance Designer. And also, it is pretty common to combine procedural functions with pre-made scanned textures. In conclusion,… -
Re: Decent IPS monitor
The panel and driver electronics are all made by Innolux and it's speced, sold, and assembled through US based company called Impact Display Solutions. I have thought about getting some tile management software. If windows just expanded the windows key + arrow key functionality so that you could configure your own zones it…
