Re: Substance Designer: do you let a thin layer of dust affect roughness and metalic maps?
gradient map, 2 points. 1 at a value of 255 with alpha of 0 for the metal areas. second point with a value of 0 with an alpha of 255 for the metallic areas. metal/rough for spec/gloss same thing but the metal areas are the spec color of the metal. also, don't over think it - its not that complicated. -
Re: Is there much of a point to do art with an IPS panel?
Oh yeah sorry if I was unclear : I didn't mean to suggest that you should set your monitor to use the sRGB profile in the windows color settings, at all. What I meant is : in order for other people to see something predictable when viewing your screenshots and renders, you should *convert* these documents to sRGB before… -
Re: Odd Max Vertex Paint Issue...?
Based only on what I see, I have a gut feeling that it might have something to do with max working in percents and the engine with regular colors. In other words, 0-100 scale versus 0-255 scale. So when in max you make something white, 100%, ingame it's only 100/255, or a fairly dark gray. -

What you are essentailly doing is overlaying details without causing a saturation/color shift in the normal mapping color space. I just dont know howto do that shift… -
Re: Have anyone figured out how new Curvature Smooth node works in Designer?
I (naively) assumed they'd done it properly Hacks like that explain why it breaks down under some circumstances edit: ok so I've had a look . Hopefully this helps with some of the weird bits The only variable they seem to be using is the builtin $sizelog2 -which is log2(pixel size of the input) == log2(512, 512) == (9, 9)… -
Re: jade texture / material how to
Try setting specular color to something in magenta. Maybe 255 100 255 Specular level controls the brightness of highlights on your object's surface. Glossiness controls the size and shape of those highlights. High glossiness will give you small, sharp highlights. Low glossiness will give you large, duller highlights.… -
Re: No More Pinkish Maxscript Listener UI.
Here's where mine landed. You can just put this in a startup script. Also, change the font to Consolas in the Preferences | MaxScript tab. listenerBackgroundColor = (color 80 80 80) macroRecorderBackgroundColor = (color 40 40 40) macroRecorderTextColor = (color 147 179 210) pythonPromptColor = (color 240 95 146)… -

Re: 24" + inch monitor choice

That was, after getting the manager to lower it to 269 then using 2 miscellaneous gift cards on it bring it down to 255 after tax. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001380&Tpk=xl2370 I like it...
