Re: PETROL/BLOOD - BagelHero
well you can pose em, until ou have your final 2 poses, then export them, import into one maya scene together with the ones you are going to bake to. then layout the uvs ontop of each other. if they dont stretch in your poses, you should get the same result when you unfold the UVs. if thats not the case, you might want to… -
Re: UV Mapping, do I have to? Does it ever get fun?
[ QUOTE ] from what i've seen max8's uv tools are based on LSCM just like blenders implementation, so you have to select the desired seams and let it do the unwrapping for you? [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, the pelt mapping lets you select the seams where you want the uv's to unfold from, and then pulls them apart and flattens them.… -
Re: Ideas for gamificaiton of educaiton
But indeed Greevar, the Foldit project goes totally against the whole "instant gratification" idea, and also against the whole "lets put games in education" trend. No one told the guys behind the project to actually make it into a game ; rather, they worked on that problem for a while, realized that a 3D unfolding approach… -

Re: 3ds max user learning XSI
Don't worry, XSI's node editors are very straightforward and very easy to understand. A lot easier to comprehend then Max's slate editor if you ask me (far less complex and equally powerful). UV tools in XSI suck, period. It's all very manual, and there's an annoying bug in SI2012 where you can't edit multiple UVs at the… -
Re: Modo - UV viewport slow performance
Hey guys, I'm working on a laptop, but a pretty strong one: i7, 12GB of RAM nVidia 650m card - could that be the problem? My graphic card? I'm working with 800k polys mesh, nothing else in the scene, no morphs or weightmaps or anything of that sort, also Ray GL and previewer are off..is that 'heavy'? In Maya 2015 it's… -
Re: Help with UV-mapping dolphin
When I do creatures, I usually unwrap them the way a hunter would skin them. Slice along the belly, cut off the appendages or split them with a perpendicular, intersecting line to the main belly split, and unfold. This makes the whole thing pretty readable if you are painting in 2d, but it also puts your seams in the most… -
Re: paper sculpture street art project
wow thanks a lot guys! @conte - creation process is pretty straightforward - i used pepakura to unfold the model and create a paper template, printed it out on a large scale printer (36in x 36 in), cut it out from cardboard (i used a 2-ply museum board), and use a glue gun to glue it all together. then i gave it a coat of… -

Hello, I started to work on a new project, this time I wanted to go with a steampunk theme.

I decided to put it in old victorian factory environment as a place where… -
