Re: Modeling workflows and their advantages\disadvantages on the workplace .
Actually double smoothing in Max is exactly what creasing does in Maya. In Max: Put one TurboSmooth with 2 subdivisions with "Separate | Smoothing Groups" on and then another Turbosmooth without the Smoothing Groups option. The equivalent In Maya: Select all the hard edges have them have a crease value of 2 (always use a… -
Re: Chapel Ruins: Mini environment
Vertrucio, very nice point. I'll have to analyze that and possibly replace some boulders with some bricks or smaller stones. Prophecies, that's exactly what I was thinking. I love his thread btw, I've learned so much from it. SnakeDoctor my workflow has varied by object. In this case, I used very little BSP because the… -
Re: TMNT - Bebop
pMiller - not quite sure I see what you mean on the arms but I see what you mean on the neck. I put neck folds back there. I think I'm going to go back into ZBrush, redo the folds and export a displacement map so they don't look so mushy. Either that or paint the folds in the maps and flatten out the geo a bit. Brad - I… -
Re: Sketchbook: aphexx
hi enodmi and syros. i used a cellular map and some noises in 3dsmax as a diplacment for the metals. so the metalparts of the basemesh are made highpoly and displaced all in 3dsmax. the wood basemesh was exported over to mudbox, and then sculpted. the basemeshes were also already uvmapped, so that i also loaded a midpoly… -
Re: Working between Max and Maya
I've had quite a lot of luck moving things with FBX between Max and Maya, it's pretty stable for most things by now, I've found... I wrote a script at work for bringing stuff in from Max where in Max it'd only export the base level meshes (no Turbosmooth or any modifiers which exist in Maya as deformers like Bend, Twist… -
Re: Utility to assist with low poly level editing
Hi Folks, The app is aimed very much at the academic market, for teaching low to medium polygon 3D modelling and texturing, as well as some basic gameplay elements, with a zero pipeline export path ( ie you don't export into a file, that has to be imported and tweaked in another app / included in a WAD file etc ). Most of… -
Re: Cloth in games ?
You may be right about the expense of a point cache export, I dont know. I'll find out soon though, after these tests Im doing. (the gr2 files I've exported in early tests so far range from 1-4mb) However, in my experience, rigging cloth to bones is no trivial exercise. Its really labor intensive in fact, unless Im just… -
Re: Money for your Already Made Character Models
To everyone saying 2D is limiting. It is but there is a lack of it. (minus ripped sprites from previous games). I would also license the model and sell it as 3D with animations for various engines like the torque game engine in a content pack. As far as what models I am looking for: I am looking for character models. If… -
Re: Problem with Baking Normals
Hello, thanks for the reply. Yes, i triangulated the LowPoly when I exported it in fbx, I updated the screenshots of the post with the triangulated LowPoly used for Baking. -
XGen - Problem with saving Modifiers
Hi Despite being on the XGen contents page and hitting New Topic, there doesn’t appear to be any category related to XGen. Might be good for someone to move this to an appropriate place. :) There doesn’t seem to be any decent forums related to XGen issues, so I thought I’d try here. I’m having problems with exporting out…
