Re: Rigging Question.
Your workflow is a little backwards. You need to mirror the skeleton first, bind it to your mesh, weight one side, then mirror the weights over to the other side. You can't really add bones to a skeleton after binding it to a model, but someone correct me if I'm wrong... For the skeleton, use the mirror joint tool and for… -
Re: Neji Hyuga
Well i don't know much about anime and stuff so my critics might make me look stupid but i'll say it anyway. I think the model is too flat and linear. Spinal column has 4 curvatures that are lacking on your model. The same critic goes to the hands, hands bones form an arch, not a flat hand. Your big finger makes almost 90º… -
Re: Metal Specular Maps - Your Methods
[ QUOTE ] We actually have a program that lets you paint on it to "comb" the surface, i'de show some examples but its all NDA stuff, sorry. [/ QUOTE ] So do you have an example then where the direction does change direction? This one looks like it's just following the blurred black and white noise around a horizontal axis… -
Re: o'rafer's keep
hehe, sorry if i sounded harsh kp - i really like the look of this building, it's a cool design and a neat idea. Maybe it's just my optimisation-frenzied viewing of assets these days, i was expecting more of the stonework, floors and the canopies to be more "modular", like just a single thing which tiles in one axis and… -
Re: Tutorial: Capturing Normal and Displacement Maps
Hi Eric Thanks for giving Displacement Map Creator a test! Your map confused the software for two reasons: 1. Your green channel (Y-axis) is inverse of what DMC expects. Certain programs bake that way, for some reason. What software did you use to create it? 2. Your black background will confuse DMC; DMC will think the… -
Re: The Normals Rig Test
I can barely tell due to the fact its a youTube video, but it also looks like he took into account the fact that the eyes don't start rotating about their axii in the eyesocket until the head reaches a certain point of side to side rotation as well. But yeah, the materials and modeling were the few things that detracted… -
Re: 3ds Max 7 Severe Errors
Update: I finally found a working .x exporter outside of the DirectX SDK, so that crash-on-startup is solved and I have the functionality I need. I'm going to contact the creator of UltraMon and see if he can shed any light on my lock-up situation but for the time being I can work around it by disabling UltraMon. One final… -
Re: UVTools, looks nice for environment art.
Many of those are in Chuggnut's UV Tools http://www.chuggnut.com/scripts/unwraptools/unwraptools.htm UVPaint is another handy one http://w3.enternet.hu/godzola/ScriptSide/ Funky workflow but I found it super-useful for UV-ing architectural models. To paint UVs properly, you must be in a perspective view, with the mesh… -
Re: Quickly aligning angled vertices?
ok now it gets a little funky - you also could create a helper pivot by using another object which is 45° rotated, and use that as your temp axis system to scale the vertices to a planar level... but just rebuilding it would be more efficient i guess ;) -
Re: Modeling Practice Here:
That's looking a heck of a lot better! One major thing I want to point out though is that the thumb doesn't bend that way. Again, look at your own hand and flex your thumb to see its axis of motion.
