Re: Outliner 2.0 - Scene management tool for 3ds Max
I have indeed given the selection sets mode some thought in the past. The main issue with this is that the architecture of the treeview of the Outliner is not designed to handle multiple instances of the same node. This is something that will certainly be necessary when showing selection sets of course. Now that I am… -
Re: WIP - Deep dark wood - (Block out Phase)
Been a while sense I've worked on a personal project of this scale. So im trying to just have fun with it. Ended up going back and adding more ideas to the blockout and am feeling happy with its evolution. I am adding an interior section of the tree that can work as a great hall or possibly a witches den. Not sure yet...… -
Re: Use Maya Nodes or Realtime shaders
you could get a game that comes with an editor like Crysis, gears of war2/unreal tournament 3, COD4, or download valve's hammer. Then you can make a FPS level that you can actually play! -
Re: How are these mixer textures generated?
you could generate this with code or you could simply composite images. either way, the result will depend entirely on how you combine your gradients/distancefields/however you choose to think of it here is an example in substance designer. the maths translate 1:1 to any shading language and can be easily ported to code.… -
Re: Call of Duty: Ghosts
Damn, that was a great read. I would have never guessed it was that complicated to implement a FOV slider. I guess it's one of those things that some people don't appreciate enough because they have come to expect it. On a related note, I wish people would stop bashing the CoD engine. It is an incredibly difficult task to… -
Maya mel script - move selected vertices to 0 on x axis
Hello everyone, I'm trying to learn MEL scripting coming from a background of Unity C#. Currently I'm working on a script that moves all selected vertices to 0 on the x-axis. I borrowed this script from another forum but it doesn't seem to work when the object has moved: string $verts[] = `ls -sl -fl`; Now, I'm trying to… -
Re: Realtime VFX Reel - William Kladis
Thanks Shrike! To answer your questions: 1) I prefer using UDK over everything, so that entails using Cascade (the particle editor) and the material editor extensively. I also have used CryEngine (which doesn't have a name for its particle editor), Fork Particle Studio (a standalone editor that is implemented into most… -
Re: Maya outliner hiding or deleting nodes?
Ah I see. Thanks very insightfull. I wasn't sure if I could delete the transformation nodes. Thanks for confirming. Coming from Max. Maya is not easy to learn, very technical. But thanks again for the insightfull post! -
Re: Zbrush 4 coming august 2009 :)
the biggest issue I've come across is remembering to press the freaking T button to go into edit mode.. there's a lot of little crap like that. once you get used to it it's fine but it can really throw new users through a loop! -
Re: Maya component selection toggle
If you use selectMode to enter component mode, it will switch to the last active component selection mode that was used. If you have multiple objects selected, selectMode -q -o will return true as long as there is at least one object in your selection still in object mode. Personally I use a hotkey to toggle between Object…
