Maybe it's possible with bpy. but i don't know if you can store custom data like that on vertices with python. It doesn't even need to work procedurally, it just needs to be one button for lock and another button for snap. each vertex on the lp would need to hold a unique identifier for their respective hp vertex so they…
Autodesk announced 3dsmax 2012, we thought it would be a good idea to take a look at what's new. There seem to be a lot of new features here is a look at the ones we think will impact you the most. Out of the box the single biggest change to our every day work flow, is to the UVWunwrap. Hands down this is going to effect…
In Kismet I have "Level Loaded" with "Loaded and Visible" wired to "Set Velocity". That is causing my air plane to fly forward automatically. Which is what I want. I also have set up 4 "Key/Button Pressed" nodes for WSAD controls. Each one of them has their own "Set Velocity". When I press a button I move the correct…
How about you have one free-flying parent joint, a helper joint, and a scripted button to automatically keyframe all of its direct child joints (you only need to keyframe them, as their own children will follow along) with the inverse transform of how they are transformed after you change the pivot? In other words, you…
Its a neat tool, but I personally don't like using them. My main gripe with them is simply that its another thing you use in your hand that controls the camera but not much else. Most camera controls are tied to your mouse buttons and commonly used keys like CTRL and ALT, but these buttons also control commonly used tool…
what it comes down to Hawken is that you CAN build a PC for less, you can NOT build a Mac. They keep their motherboards to themselves which means no matter how hard you try you just cant do it. Maybe, just maybe, you can hack together a version of OSX that runs on windows hardware but then why? You just removed all…
hawh! cool. and i hear you on the time-sink thing. as far as the aggression release issue goes, it's hard to say, and although i do think that there is probably some value there, i could argue the point -- if a guy is angry and wants to beat his wife, is it really a solution to give him a wife-beating-sim to get out his…
@AlecMoody i tried the baker, wow this is a fast one O.O it's a little bit annoying, when you try to find the right ray-offset on the first page, to always switch to the third one to press the bake-button. it would be better to have a fixed positioned bake-button. is there a possibility for an object-id pass? maybe this…
To stop the poly's from shrinking use creases. A few buttons below Divide there's a Crease button, use it before sub-dividing and your planes won't shrink. Marine: Yeah, You can keep the volume by storing a morph target as soon as you import, before sub-dividing. Subdivide the model a few times, then go back to level 1 and…
The wireframes are not very readable. I think you should resize them to fit the area they will be loaded into and then load them, because flash doesn't do any kind of aliasing on an image when it is scaling it down. Also, it would be nice to have a whole enlarged image be a back button, instead of having to go and click on…
