Extra shape nodes in maya
I'm currently making some tools to cleanup empty shape nodes in maya. I know that the shape nodes are essentially containers for vertexes and so on but does anyone have any insight on why maya would create an empty shape node? Is there anything wrong with just deleting these shape nodes? They seem to cause a lot of… -
Re: UDK Physically Based Lighting!
I just wanted to follow up real quickly! The OneMinus trick does not work. I pointed out earlier that the issue behind is more systemic of how the system is interpreting the roughness map.

Re: 3DS MAX 2015 -------Sneak Peek-------
Tangent baking issues are never obsolete :) But, 3dsMax has 3 different tangent spaces you can choose in the prefs to decide which one to use in the viewport. I tend to use the Maya one because it gives me better results and I like to use Turtle or Beast for baking the maps. I think the legacy tangents are the default… -

Hey, From what I know, you cannot write function in "pure lines" code : you have to use the graph system. -
Re: Positions Closed
One of our modelers made some new road textures this week. One of the blueprint guys got a major section of core code completed this week. Looking for more people, especially CSS website coders and animators! -
Substance Designer to Painter, Edge Detect Node breaks. How to fix this?
I'm creating a basematerial for Substance Painter in Substance Designer. Everything works as expected in Substance Painter, except for the Edge Detect node I used in Substance Designer. As you can see in the Substance Designer screenshot, the Edge Detect node created the desired black&white mask. Whereas the Substance…
