Re: 3D Coat 3.1 update released!
This feature has now become a full mode. Look at the Vox Tree, right next to the name for each object is a Cube icon, showing that you're in voxel mode. Click it and it will change to a squiggly line, showing that object is now in Surface mode. Surface mode is great for smoothing a thin area out without punching a hole in… -
Re: Leadwerks engine sample level design: The Zone
this is very nice...but one thing i would say is look at your composition of objects...they often seam spread around to cover the most space...visually it would be alot more interesting if you clumped the objects together in nice arrangements (wee little compositions) with contrasting space between...it allows the eye to… -
Re: CSS struggles
Hmmm. I can't find the appropriate syntax for controlling a specific div's style... is it something like this? <OBJECT data="test.gif" type="image/gif" usemap="#test" border="0"> <map name="test"> <area shape="rect" coords="25,18,44,36" onclick="showme.style='visibility:visible'"> </map> </OBJECT> <div id="showme"… -
Re: Creating a 1d texture
It really is one-dimensional, in the real sense. Sure, what you see on the screen is a 2D picture. (It sorta has to be, otherwise you couldn't see it.) But the thing being represented is a list of colors in a certain order. That's what's one-dimensional: not the picture, but the subject of the picture. It's a 2D picture of… -
Re: MR AO bake vs scanline AO bake in Max?
Okay, tried both on the same object. The end result I get is that the MR bake tends to be more detailed, while the Scanline bake tends to have a stronger result (except on areas where two objects are practically touching, they're black on both). Time wise, it's about the same, depending on the number of samples you use for… -
Re: Max 9 - red wireframe, editing UVs
Sorry, I think my sphere example didn't help. Try this: Make a sphere, convert to Editable Poly but don't activate Sub-Object, set viewport to Smooth & Highlights, UVW Unwrap mod, set Unwrap to Sub-Object Face, select some faces (by ID or marquee), turn off Shade Selected Faces (F2). Do you get the red wireframe? -
Re: Your helpful movie morality thread
![[Deleted User]](https://polycount.com/themes/polycount/design/default-avatar.gif)
I completely disagree with both, I think your objection to the first is based in your personal worldview rather than any absolute truth (and ironically your own view was represented in TDK, which you name as being a movie "guilty" of this) and the second has been the theme of dystopian settings since forever, you could… -

Re: whats the number one thing that cheeses you off
Debabelizer Pro - god damn thing gives a crash error report EVERY TIME I shut it down....grr. 3dsmax - inability to slide new objects into an existing hierarchy in the heirarchy view. Our engine uses this as it's sorting graph, so things need to be in order to sort properly. It's BEYOND annoying having to unlink 40… -
Re: Visible edges on baked mesh
To be honest, that might approach "good enough", especially with textures, but if you want to get to the bottom of this, you could try to use one smoothing group for the whole object to check how well your pipeline is aligned. Right now, the normal map only does a bit of work around the edges. Padding/margin depends on…
