Re: UV editor
The new peel tool in 3dsmax2012 is pretty groovy. You turn it on and it attempts to relax, you can then define edges/seams and break areas to release the tension so it relaxes better. For example if you where to do a cylinder with end caps: You turn on peel, select the top/bottom and break, then select a vertical edge and… -
Re: Autodesk Maya 2016
To lose Shift+Drag is a tad of an overstatement to hear a maya user call out tbh. I mean, one thing Maya over throws 3ds Max in is the "G + Y" repeat commands which I use much faster than this 3ds Max user transition of Shift+Drag extrude functionality. Just do your extrude, and select any component you want after (faces,… -
Re: Normalmap baking
Rather than the hard edge one I think he wants this sticky http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81154 dirtyhairy has the right end of the stick. Vertex normal direction controls the direction the cage gets pushed to. Cage is basically the ray cast direction for baking purposes. Hard edges on the low poly don't… -
Re: Abandoned Boat Shed - UE4 - WIP
Hm, it does seem like Benjamin Moore uses a metallic finish, but that seems to be stylistic choice by them and a few other companies, and not something universal to paint cans. In a game-art context though, it feels like a misuse of metalness. I would say, smoothing out the roughness map a little could help it feel more… -
Re: Part of the nCloth following a part of the model when simulating
If you're already using skinning, stick with that instead of moving to a wrap. For fast movements, iteration and step are important, remember that you can keyframe these values to bump them up when this sort of thing happens. The short version is that in the frame(s) where things are getting stuck, Maya is balancing speed… -
Re: Stealth Sniper
this model is for warcraft, hence the low-poly. and yes, i realise milkshape is dog-poop with animations but that is the only option seemingly availiable if i want to export the model to warcraft. which is the purpose of the model. as much as i hate animating cloth anything, i would like to have a chance to animate… -
Re: 3Ds Max - Animation/Rigging advice/problem solvers?
Is the animation intended to be that fast in the finished piece? I see 5 poses. If confined to bone anims only, I would suggest making a short cylinder (height of the electric texture band), weighting the top vertices to one bone and the bottom verts to another bone. Then just scale the two bones in/out and move them… -
Re: [WIP] Line Of Sight
DAMN, that's awesome! :-D You could do stuff with verticality where your vision cone gets bigger or the DOF gets less intensely blurred as you climb to a higher vantage point. The camera could dolly upwards and move forward along your LOS to reveal more of the map when you point your cursor further out, as a way to peer… -
Re: Post process streched and squashed
Its the post process you posted above. but with a texture that is clamped. What I'm wanting to do is have the post process behave exactly the same as how the screen resize works when changing resolution and aspect. In this image, imagine that the red square is a texture in the center of the screen. notice the red arrows on… -
Re: Pirate nest
Looks really cool, but I think there's a scale issue: The point where the stairs meet the platform is comparatively large in your scene which draws the attention away from the stuff that's on the platform and to that "empty" spot. Also, I think the roof could benefit from some vertical and horizontal wooden beams sticking…
