Re: Quick Object Picker - MaxScript Question
The documentation for modPanel.setCurrentObject says if objects are instanced you need to specify a node: http://docs.autodesk.com/3DSMAX/16/ENU/MAXScript-Help/files/GUID-BAC3CC23-9D1D-44CE-B4AF-C0CEBDD7099E.htm Also, modPanel.setCurrentObject will select the object and change the command panel. No need to do those… -
Re: [WIP] M1 carbine hard surface practice
little texture update on the metal,added some rust and dirt still some work on the wood @respawnrt : I reduce a little bit the polycount ,its 6400 tris now @Boyso ,yes my main ref is a m2 apparently and its indeed a little thin ,I use only a side ref in 3dsmax (bad I know) ,I tried to enlarge a little ,its better now? any… -
Re: PHONE WITH BUILT IN GRAMMAR!
I don't know if the texture for the disc is intentional (the light bounce). My eyes tell me that the disc are bent upwards. Also if you are willing to reduce more tris in the disc try this trick: If you are using 3dsmax try to delete all the top faces of the disc then recap the hole then convert to Editable Patch then… -
Re: Arrrr, the piracy poll!
Hm, i do wonder though, is for example for autodesk better if the guy pirates maya/3dsmax and eventually get a job and earns enough money to actually buy that product one day, or would it be better if he's a good guy and not do piracy, but switches to Blender, and maybe never gets to buy 3ds max ..... I mean, people seems… -
Re: BMW 328 Hommage (help)
You shouldn't sculpt hard surface models in Zbrush from the start, there's no way to get good results with this approach, you need simple control cages aka subdivision (or complicate yourself using trim brushes, panelloops and other features, but I wouldn't recommend it for this). You can use Zbrush 4R7 with polymodeling,… -
Re: Robobeast
Hey Ged! Thanks for your feedback, as I said I've started the work from a concept of K.Thompson, in his book he mentioned the robot ability to use his claws to maintain the position while it's shooting. About the rear part I decided to model a sort of box with a machine gun and some seats: I used a 3dsmax biped to study… -

Re: best too to paint over a model?
Hmm, I cant find anything like that on the English version of the site. Though I think the only thing that happens with the integration is a script or plug-in that sends the model the BP3D and back to Max. And that quick walktrough of multi material painting in Mudbox, it is very possible in BP3D as well. In fact..… -
Re: Cavity vs Curvature maps
I've dealt with this in the past, and here are the ways to do curvature maps that I know of: Highpoly, no UVs: - Vertex colors: bake in max with http://www.rpmanager.com/plugins/TensionMod.htm - Zbrush polypaint: bake to vertex color via masking High to low, UVs: - Xnormal, bake curvature - convert tangent space normal to…
