Need help making a mirror material
I am trying to create a carousel that has mirrors as part of its decorations. So I was following the directions found at this site: http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/DevelopmentKitGemsCreatingDistortedReflection.html As far as I can tell I have the material set up the way they have it in this image:… -
Re: Maya - Assign Materials by Layers (like Rhino)
So just wanted to give an update. I ended up doing some scripting in MEL to automatically create layers (so I have aluminium layer, a chrome layer, a rubber layer... breaking things up by material). These are not render layers, but display layers. Then I wrote up some MEL to give me a window with a few sets of buttons on… -
Re: Modo constantly messes up material IDs
I had the same problem with Maya, the solution was to split the mesh into one mesh per material and put these into the right order in the outliner (which determines the order of the mats in the fbx file, i assume).

RESOLVED: Why does my material look different based on view angle?
I have what I feel is a pretty straight forward material that is a wood plank floor.

Re: Making simple screen material
post process material affects the camera.. so that would also affect the whole scene.. why don't you just make a material and apply it to your screen-mesh.. you can use uv panner/adjust opacity/let the emissive flicker and use all the material nodes to get your desired result.. all that stuff… -
SOLVED: Texture/Smart Material not appearing on a section of my mesh
Has anyone had this problem? I am trying to apply a smart material to a certain section of my mesh, defined through the colour ID map, but for some unknown reason, the material will not appear at all. If I apply a smart material which is not allocated by the colour ID it will appear on that section of the mesh though. I… -

[maxscript] How to create a range of numbers to be used in material selections
Hi! I'm a noobie in scripting, but I'm trying to automatize some repetitive tasks at my job. I want to turn on this function in my multi material selection. For instance: to change the RGB colors of my materials, instead of typing all the way from 1 to 100, how can I make it more straight to the point:…
