Re: Upgrading or building a new PC? This is the thread for you!
@PolyHertz I have recently upgraded from a 5950x to the 13900k and it is so much better. The ram speeds tank so much when you put in 128gb. DDR4 goes only between 2666-3600 and ddr5 cant go above 4800 in most cases. I think upgrading the cpu is the one thing that speed ups your workflow so much. Importing to nanite? np.… -
Re: Variable mesh density, controlled by a bitmap?
I tried installing Vorofrag, but Max wouldn't launch because it's stopped being updated. It is critical that I can tie the tragmentation density to a bitmap, which Fracture Voronoi doesn't allow. I also wasn't able to find the option in Rayfire Shatter, although I DID get it working with Rayfire Voronoi. That was the only… -
Re: Rounded corners filter in Substance Painter
Im 99% certain you're buggered if you want to keep this pure painter - you're missing a link between the mesh makeup and the textures and no amount of clever maths can make up for that. You could bake the extra maps using the automation toolkit instead. I've written a couple of painter plugins that launch SAT scripts and… -
Re: Unity 5
From the sound of it, current Unity 4 users aren't going to be left out in the cold. there will be at least one more major 4.x update, and it WILL include the new revision to the GUI system. (something that a lot of users have been clamoring for) Overall, it's sounding really good. New tools and toys to play around with.… -
Re: Changing mesh pivot point in CE3
Is it setting your pivot to the world grid 0 0 0? If you move your object to 0 0 0 and export does the pivot come out in the right spot? I've and to do that with quite a few engines over the years. I wrote scripts that move your object, export and then move it back, because it was so annoying. There might be some settings… -
Re: Maya or Max
It might be worth looking into some of the rig building tools on creativecrash (or try zooToolbox ) if you're looking to get characters rigged quickly in Maya. Obviously you'd need to investigate the licences of these tools to make sure they were compatible with your commercial release. I'd suggest getting the 30 day trial… -
Re: 3DS Max, Shift dragging offsets the mesh
Its usually the case that it is as simple as that. A checkbox or drop down that has not been set. More so in later releases of some Autodesk products. If you do shoot yourself (I suggest that you don`t), make sure all required interactive parts are set before you pull the trigger. As you may only be doing this once (unless… -
Re: Annoying things that can -- and usually -- happens when 3d modeling
- click a bit of geo with wacom; accidentally and imperceptibly move it and not realise. (I use the pen 100% of the time, my mouse hasn't been used in a decade lol) - think about saving before doing something experimental, but don't, then throw pen in rage at the failed outcome. - find out a third party script hasn't… -
Re: 3dsmax 2014
They keep shuffling around the places that max can save and store files, icons and scripts, it drives a lot of people nuts and they really should settle on something that actually works. But yea I've run into permissions problems like what you're having and it was solved by setting a shortcut to max to run as admin. I've… -
Re: Baking Errors
I believe textools http://www.renderhjs.net/textools/ has a script for setting uv islands to smoothing groups. It looks like you have some other errors here too, that green decal with the wings should not be green, make sure the highpoly source mesh does not have inverted faces. And another bit a little lower on the map…
