Overlapped Edges with Decimation
I'm having a bit of an issue with decimation and using it in a workflow that I've picked up elsewhere. Generally what I'm trying to do is create a mesh in Zbrush (say for some cliff elements in this case). I have it all sculpted, I decimate it and I want to port the mesh over into max at around 550k triangles for normal… -
How to avoid "separated" or "black" edges on model using a heightmap?
I created a heightmap for my model by two different ways: in photoshop, and with a program call Materialize, and both gave me the same results. This is my first time using heightmaps, so I'm definitely missing something. I'm trying to use it (the heightmap) in Unity with the Standard Shader, however, I've seen some videos… -
SOLVED: DDO edge / cavity problem
Hi, my input maps & model are, to my knowledge, correct. But edges are not detected correctly: Sharp cavity mask: Sharp edges mask: I am using xnormal, normal map exported with default settings. Here are my input files: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gwb9iu5d4y7jxsp/DDO.zip?dl=0 Does anyone else have encountered this issue? -
Maya alternative edge splitter tool MJPolyTools?
Apparently MJPolyTools causes some strange properties in the hypergraph that are a pain to clean up. Is there a better edge splitting plugin that can split only selected edges? (I use the split ring tool built in, but it only splits whole rings). -
Split edges at smoothing groups.
Hey. The game engine I am exporting to does not support smoothing groups, so I have to split the model at the smoothing groups I have created. I have been searching the web and polycount for a way to do this and I have tried quite a few things with no success. The uv borders and smoothing groups share the same edges, so my… -
Jagged Edges After Inflation
Hi Guys, I've been trying to incorporate a little hard surface on my recent sculpt with a sort of virtual reality visor. I'm basically trying to mask off areas and expand / contract them to create plates and grooves off the main visor shape. However, I end up with a stretched jagged mesh. Can anyone provide insight on how… -
ANSWERED: Does dDo detect poly edges on a mesh?
dDo detecs edges from normals maps, but I was wondering if dDo can detect edges on a mesh, and if so how? Thank you in advance! -
3dsmax - Connecting vertecies with an edge between
Hey! I have been trying to hunt for a script or way to connect an edge between 2 verticies when there's an edge inbetween them, using the "Connect" function in the vertex tab. No luck so far, so I was hopeing maybe I could get some help here. Here is a picture of what I am trying to explain.… -
Re: maya looping, harden/soften edge
To harden or soften the edges, select polygons in your drop down menu on the left. Then: Normals>Soften Edges Normals>Harden Edges -
Gun modelling edge flow questions
Hello everyone. I've been modelling my very first gun and I'm trying to make only quads. I'm finding it very hard, though. One example is here: http://i.imgur.com/M1qrngy.png?1?8559 I chamfered the aiming thing to make it round, but now I got a 10-gon or something. So I used the cut tool to try making them into quads:…
