Creating a custom rig in 3ds Max that can mirror is fairly complex. If you can find some of Paul Neale's old rigs Maxine or Maxwell you can see the code he uses to do it. You've got a couple of alternatives though. 1. Use Biped or CAT that come with 3ds Max. 2. When I use a rig that doesn't have mirroring I animate both…
There's basically no set standard for how shaders read normal maps, so I think it basically comes down to whoever is writing the code for it at the time. It's common for bakers like zbrush and xnormal (and renderers like marmoset) to give the user options for how they want a specific channel to be used. "Most apps tend to…

you're doing 3D work on an air or something else? I have a 11'er air too and the nvidia card and core 2 duo care certainly good enough for last gen 3D work (my old Thinkpad T60p I got 2006 wasn't much better), but it still sounds rather cumbersome (with Maya's toolbars & ui taking up a lot of screen real estate). I do some…

And if there is a law for publicited products to be truth in the practicall way they are advertised ( sectio ajdasjd of the cdjfdsjf civil code ) why not the same for games ? if company A is selling product B claiming that it IS…
I've had to work with numerous pubs that we've required NDAs. It should be a pretty black and white situation of what Brome said... give them a short enough teaser that you physically have the copy of (and show them yourself) if they're that resistant, and then have them sign for a fuller GDD + demo. Either way if you or…

Cell isn't x86 compatible, it's PPC based RISC processor. Where as most modern desktop processors(well all of them) are x86 CISC based. nVidia is trying to bring ARM based CPU+GPU hybrid to the desktop markets in the near future, but the thing is - x86 isn't compatible, you'd need to have virtualization/emulation of x86 on…
The PS2 has always been a dog when it comes to Z-sorting alpha planes. I remember a coder explaining it to me one time. Basically it could be done, but required your engine to do some serious calculation, and that was a trade off - use the cycles to figure out the Z-depth of the alpha planes, or use it for something else…
I want to access the reset option inside a custom attribute. I look at the code like this: def=custAttributes.getDef $.modifiers[1] 2 custAttributes.getDefSource def if I try to look for it, I find that I cannot find it! $Character_root_Ctrl.modifiers[1].pmAtt.pmAtts.loadSaveRoll._rst.pressed() I need to find the exact…
