So this is my first time developing anything for a Valve product. It seems to me that only a valve SDK or game would be able to read the shaders correctly, so I wanted to export the files and test them in the Alien Swarm SDK.

I work on Unity 3D and use the export preset but the metalness map comes without the alpha channel which contain the gloss. The export works fine with tga but they are very heavy and this means I have to…

Hi there folks, I'm new to Polycount (and Maya, to be frank) so go easy on me, please. :) I've been working on a 3D character for a VR game (using Unity) that I'd like to give a surface that has an active, liquid quality to it. The closest thing I could use for reference is the skin on the Searchers from a game called…
Hey folks... I imagine a number of you Max users out there will be familiar with Chuggnut's excellent unwrap tools (from www.chuggnut.com). I was wondering if there was any easy way to set often-used items like the "align" and "space" tools (for vertical/horizontal alignment and spacing) to be activated by hotkeys? It'd be…
