Re: Max to Maya - Verts, Edge, Faces XYZ position
Wrote something up for ya. Will show the positions of selected object(s)/vert(s)/edge(s)/face(s), averaging their values if multiple are selected like in max: if (`window -exists xyzWindow`) deleteUI xyzWindow;window -wh 275 75 -mxb 0 -title "xyzWindow: component positions" xyzWindow;rowColumnLayout -numberOfColumns 2… -
Re: 3DS Max: UV Script to weld Overlapping vertices.
It can easily be done as a script (or at least synchronizing the vert positions can be). The problem is processing the data quickly. Maxscript is not a fast language, and iterating over and matching the positions of thousands / tens of thousands of vertices could take a long time. Anyhow, here's a simple/unoptimized script… -
Re: And now for something completely different: HDR Panos!
Good question. The camera I use (Olympus OMD EM1) can take 7 shots bracket at 2 EV increments, which is what I do. A nice benefit of the EM1 is that it can take all the shots with one shutter press, which is handy. Depending on your camera, you may be limited to less shots, or say, 5 shots at 1EV. In which case you might… -
Re: Best workflow for creating materials based on photo captures?
Here's a little guide for the photography aspect. I'll edit this post if I think of anything else. Let me know if you have any questions. This is all for the ideal scenario. If you don't have the budget then just apply my other advice and make due with what you've got. Camera Canon or Nikon DSLR (my personal preference) or… -
Re: Realtime Worlds layoffs
I'm not so sure our industry is existing beyond its means, just beyond the means at which publishers are confident they will turn a decent profit. Publishers want the same piece of the pie so we lose out before they do. When faced with an issue of waning demand they cut back on supply. With the GFC people either have far… -
Re: 3D Realtime Character [WIP]
I thought i solved the problem in setting the right lightdirections in the shader. I implemented a chaseing cam, but now i realised that if i moving my char in the positive z direction. after passing the cam in positive z space the normals for some parts are flipped. If i move my char back towards the origin and in… -
Re: Selling my workstation
Finally, some nerd talk, haha. A few things I should mention is the computer has been used by me alone for around 2 years (its the 2008 model). So its using the Quad core xeons that dont support hyperthreading or anything. I usually try and get a new system every 2 years if it will be fast enough to justify the price. Also… -
Re: The Rambling of Another Lost Soul
Unfortunately I know a lot of people in this position. The market is extremely competitive right now and given the number of people that are currently unemployed it seems like if there are positions available they are more likely to go with someone that has a connection at the studio already. As for graduating students I… -
Re: Steam
I had a really horrible Steam experience too. I have broadband DSL 384/384. I considered wether I wanted to buy a Steam version or a Retail box. In my consideration was the following: -there was NO information on the Steam website that told me if I bought online if I could burn a CD of my purchase so that I could install… -
There is not sense of community on ArtStation despite functionality for it... Should it be like it?
As many, i was a hobbyist who grew up with DeviantArt since ~2007. I remember getting into dA not because "sonic fanart" or something like that, but - if i remember correctly - because several famous photographs (inluding artistic nudes ones) used it. Regardless whatever was happening to dA in terms of "quality" or…
