Can't open scene / One or more objects define the UV mapping
Hello polycount! I have been working on a model in Maya for a month and now when i export to 3dMax it displays crash log says: One or more objects define the UV mapping by POLYGON_VERTEX but the index table has less entries than the actual number of polygon vertices. The missing entries have been assigned an arbitrary… -
3DS Max 2013: How to wrap splines around objects
As the title suggests, I need to learn how to wrap a spline around a model, I have searched youtube for countless tutorials and they most of them do it the most stupid way (e.g. using a basic helix) I need to wrap splines around quite a few objects, I have seen people do it maya efficiently as hell. when I try to use… -
Re: Gradient texturing on modular tiles causing visible seams
As already said: for a flat floor using a gradient is.. not really possible.. but when your tiles got some ramdom elevation.. (here not using some UV's but "directly" the object coordinates).. then they get some "difference int the appearance. -
Re: Max: Evenly scatter objects on a surface (or: How to create grass?)
Will have a look at that (thought that could not align the object to face normals). I used the fallof for Displacement but didn't thik about usign it with fur. What you mena with your PFlow statement? Using fur and combinign it with a PFlow or did you just point out I could use the distance blend for PF aswell? I still… -
Re: [Blender] Why do we have to right click and delete scene objects rather than use the delete key?
I'm talking about deleting objects from Blender's outliner. I have no problem deleting objects from the viewport with the delete key. -
How should I go about modelling this simple organic object?
Hey Polycount! I've been wanting to model the Gumball guardian character from Adventure Time recently, but I'm not sure how to do so. Here is what it looks like: And here's a 3d Model someone already made of it: http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/096/c/6/gumball_guardian_by_vinigri-d60odk3.jpg I can model the hard… -
What’s the interface function for Select from Scene in 3ds max (or selected object manually)?
I dont find in the GetCoreInterface() documentation which function would retrieve the node number I have selected, I am going to try select a node from Select from scene (or manually selecting the object) and then getting the node to pass to GetCOREInterface()->GetSelNode(); with the node pointer then retrieve the bones… -
Hard-Surface Normals - Curved object
I ran into a problem while UVing a test object to get the best understanding of how to tackle certain geometry involving a scenario where if needed to, I'd have to create hard-surface Normals. The issue isn't so much the creation of the Normal map, but rather the blending of the color values and such. I might have mixed… -
Re: Using maya as a game editor for environment art
Of course, I know the environment art pipeline and everything to do with modularity/asset reuse. I just wonder if I could make the exporting/importing pipeline smoother. If LiveLink is useful not only for animation, then here are the list of changes in Maya that I would love to do instantly see reflected inside Unreal… -
[3ds Max] Art render. How to exclude objects from getting lit by Sun Positioner?
Hi, Im making an interior scene with an aquarium. Very simply I put an aquascape texture on a box surrounded by glass plates. I made it a Standard material to access the selfillumination feature and its looks fine. Only trouble is the box is also recieving light from the Sun Positioner in the scene. How do I exclude an…
