I'm not positive this is what you want, but there's an old thread on here that saved my bacon when I was recently trying to UV a bunch of poly strips. 1) In the UV Texture Editor, Polygons > Unitize will make all selected UV faces fit the UV space. So a bunch of squares stacked on top of each other. 2) Select all the edges…
That's a pretty sharp corner and I don't think pathdeform is going to behave the way you want it to. It's going to cheat those pointy bits. If you can't round out the shape, it's going to be nearly impossible to get a mesh to conform to it perfectly. But you can handle a few different ways: 1) Animate the UV's or a blend…
Can you please explain how I would do this with the spheres? I brought in a sphere into Painter and set it to full roughness and non-metallic but I couldn't find any of those metrics(30, 187 and 243) in the color selection for base color. Also what is IBL? Thanks so much in advance.
Hi there! I'm new at scripting, so pls don't lynch me. I read a whole bunch of threads, and didn't find what I looked for. I'm trying to write a script that converts the component pivot to the object pivot. In other words, it translates and rotates the object pivot to fit the current component pivot. Getting the…
Hey all, I've been using this script that I threw together for unwrapping cylinders quickly in max. Basically combined a couple of frequently used commands together so that it is just one keypress. As well as solving an issue I run into often in max cylinder unwrap where it staggers the edge along a seam or doesn't weld a…
Hey guys, few days ago I've shared one of my personal script to the community via Gumroad, called Turbo Chamfer. It'll help adding Chamfer Modifier and TurboSmooth Modifier to the stack with a predefined setting and properties, besides that, it also remember those settings the next time you apply TurboChamfer after you…
Gents, I was wondering if I could trouble you for help on another Maxscript question. My progress on the flipping tiles animated bumper is going well but I have hit a snag. Below is the section of code that I am having an issue with: select $Tile_*GTiles = $ as Array--print GTilesclearselection()select $WAVEnumfaces =…
Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with my normal maps. This isn't the first time I have had it either. As illustrated below my meshes are projecting onto one another. I have no idea why. I followed EarthQuake's "You're making me Hard" thread. All 90 degree angles have cuts and I am also using the script from this thread…
Hello folks. First of all I'm most likely not a member with a big name on here but i wanna change that and most of all i wanna help newbies to learn 3Dsmax since i know how hard it was for me-so i made this ''most Importand 3dsmax shortcuts cheat sheet'' with the default hotkeys of 3Dsmax. I will write it down here and…
