Exporting from Maya
I am trying to export a shattered object from Maya into UDK using FBX. The object has been shattered and a radial field applied to make it "explode". I then baked out the animation but it wont export out correctly. The channels for translate have a connection and that is the error keeping it from exporting. Am I going… -
Helpful techniques and tricks for beginning Environment and Prop Artists
Hi all, So I have a question about constructing objects for Environment and Prop work. What are some useful techniques in Maya to use for modeling objects? I know I use the Bevel and Edge Loop tools to model, but are there any other useful ones that I might not be using that would be helpful? Any feedback on this is… -

Max 5 I have a line of Omni lights in a row. I apply a bend modifier to all of them. The lights move to the new loc. but their respective pivot points stay in the original pos.

3ds max - instacing along spline
I need to instance object along spline. I'm already aware of Space Tool, but this is very basic. Let's say I need to crate Palm Frond, I'd like to instance along both "sides" of spline as well as, to get leaves smaller as they progress to end of spline. Is there any scripts of plugins out there, that will allow me to that… -

Maya Arnold head scratcher..
Well, when I'm looking at the render view and nothing shows up if using Arnold. If I use the other renderers the objects will show up. Doesn't matter if its a lambert or an Arnold material. In render settings it is set to Arnold. I've checked the visibility, lights and all the obvious solutions. Like I said, the other… -
Re: Trimsheet normals inverted when rotating UV islands
I agree, it doesn't make sense. I cannot recreate this either, it's working as expected for me. Did you rotate in edit mode or object mode and applied transformations? Which version of Blender are you using? I guess there are no modifiers on the object?! Would be best if you could share an example file. -
Re: Sketchbook: Kristopher Twum
Quick paint over of what I think the back could look like. Keeping in mind game play from sunset overdrive the PC would have multiple "bouncy' objects' to boost them to higher places, hoping to really emphasize what is " bouncy" by contrasting the color from the static objects. -
Re: Journey in 3D Modelling
Hey Yura, thanks for the feedback! This version of model will not be baked as this is more of a practice to get clean topology even with a higher poly counts. Though just in case I'm modelling with baking process in mind, if the wood plank has rounder edges, will it make a difference being a separated object or combined…
