Re: [Maxscript] meditMaterials opacity error
An object can't have multiple materials so i assume you talk about multimaterial ? If so, you need to parse it, like an array. This covers the case, and works with multiple objects selection. I've added some security checks. ( sel = selection as array for obj in sel do ( myMat = obj.mat if myMat != undefined then ( if… -
Re: 3dsmax favors local-space normal maps?
Looks to me like max isn't calculating nor using the tangents and bitangents, which are required for proper lighting with tangent space maps. The tangents and bitangents need to be calculated per-vertex from the UV coordinates of the model. Once they're created, they can be stored in an unused UV channel. Then the light… -
Re: Free Ageia PhysX Card to Mod Developer
I'm working with a team to create a game using the Torque engine, but I've been reluctant to request the card since I'm not taking part in the code right now. I hope to in the near future, but if you'd like any followup info, I doubt I'd be able to provide feedback for a bit. The game I'm helping with is at… -
Re: AAS in Animation? Done. What next? Guidance on my degree crossroads
a degree in true comp sci is worth more than a 'degree' in animation. If you know how to code, you are worth more. As an artist, I wish I knew more about coding and I even wish I had a degree in it (but I sucked at math) Art is always something you can futz around with on the side and get better at with all the materials… -
Re: Nvidia Beta Drivers adds AO to games
The idea is neat but graphics are probably moving away from this in the future (the idea of larrabee (Sp?) and multicore computing) to a -way- more generalized code approach more so than HLSL, let alone coding in specific Post process passes. I played left4dead with it turned on and it looked cool. It did show it's… -
Re: Need tips about GLB exporting
Yeah, babylon.js has a great exporter. We use it here a lot. "snap-spec" might mean the models should match the specifications from Snap? https://docs.snap.com/lens-studio/references/guides/adding-content/3d/exporting-content/overview Best to ask them for clarification. Always better to ask than to assume, potentially… -

Building a new Computer Rig
Hi guys, I'm looking to build a new Computer at the end of the month on a budget of around £1000. I have a basic idea of what I'd like, though I fear that it would come to more than 1000, but I'm not too clued up on this stuff. Hopefully someone will be able to educate me a bit more so I don't buy rubbish. What I have in… -
Looking for Substance Designer Tutor/Friend
Hi I don't know if this should belong here as it pertains to "freelance" work, but it is singularly Substance Designer that I am looking for a friend to help aid me in creating better substances. I've watched many tutorials on SD, and it's quite intuitive. But I am looking for someone who could help me learn SD to a more… -
Re: Tik Manager – Open-Source Pipeline Tool for Game Dev (Now with Major Updates!)
Hey everyone, I am running a quick survey about pipelines in VFX and games. It takes around 2 minutes and comes with a chance to win some great rewards worth over $1500 from our amazing sponsors. If you’ve ever worked with pipelines, I’d love your input. Check out the details (and the rewards) here:…
