Re: Double mesh issue..3ds max
i think the layers in max, edit mesh and edit poly and are acting like two seperate meshes when converting over to zbrush thus why there are two meshes in z brush. I used edit poly because in edit mesh (default) has no tris which makes it easyer to work with. am i missing somthing? sorry about the bad grammar. the first… -
Re: Ward Animation/Skinning Problems
Even though it shouldn't be a problem, it could be. You really don't have much to go off of. Names or anything like that arent an issue, until you import into dota. Considering the default rig doesnt many bones you arent really saving yourself time either. It looks like the scale is fine as well. Build a new rig from… -
Re: MODO | Vaughan in 60 Seconds Videos
MODO | Dynamics: Sleep This video takes a quick look at using the Sleep options in MODO. By default, dynamic objects are active when any dynamic simulation starts and the object will begin to react immediately. The Sleep options enable you to change this behavior when working with rigid body items, delaying when individual… -
Re: Best screen recording software?
Sorry for the bump, but i thought i would just let people know that they can actually do screen capture using virtual dub, you dont need to use something else first. Only figured it out today and the performance is really impressive. Just keep in mind that win 7 and vista cant use the gpu accelleration, which is on by… -
Re: Shift Happens - Art Dump
Here's another recent update. We captured some in-game footage, did some compositing and created a video showing our progress on Mercury Shift: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oc5xmOAcrk It features some excerpts from our environmental devolopment, character and object design as well as a comparison of the default unity… -
Re: Maya, create (convex) polygons collider for game
Well, I didn't though it would be so complicated, I tried to compile the plugin to make it work, but well I didn't manage to. I think we'll be using the default Collider system as monster describes it just above, the system should be fine for most cases. And if we really need it someday, we might use the Tech-Artists… -
Re: Green strip in reflections
Oh, one last thing; I think if your normal map is imported as default compression, it reads as 0->1 space in all three channels, while normal map compression reads as -1->1. If you're not using the specific normal map compression you'll need to use it as the alpha of a lerp between -1 and 1 to get a shift that goes both… -
Re: 3DS Max interface issues
Yep I get this a lot too, usually happens when I have something else in the background like a fullscreened video playing. Minimizing everything except 3d max always fixed it. Win key+home by default, or customize it to any key combination if you use something like AutoHotkey. I've re-binded it to win+x. Hit the hotkey… -
Re: QUAKE 4 - SDK now available
Wow, that's awesome. They've got all the info you really need to create an entire custom player model on there. Even have examples of modelling and texturing, and how to assemble and compile everything. Very good resource. Also looks like the Q4 players don't have to match the default skeleton, so that means yaaay artistic… -
Re: Cintiq: Pondering the purchase.
I use my Cintiq 12" for everything art related. It takes a little getting used to getting around Maya with it, but I'd be reluctant to go back to a mouse now. With regards to using two screens, by default the top button on the cintiq's panel switches from single to dual monitor mode, meaning you can access everything on…
