Re: Maya 2016 and ShaderFX issues
Hey! Thanks for replying. So, it turns out that the problem might be the Graphics card. At work we use AMD R9 280 and when i plug a normal map, the object become white. But at home, i use an Nvidia card. And the same isn't happening. Using windows 7 at work and 8.1 at home And the issue with the Color management... this is… -
Re: Happy New Year!
2013 sucked as I basically had to give up art for programming because with my limited time, there is absolutely no way I could compete with anybody in this field. I guess 2014 will be about finding a way to make programming as enjoyable as art. 2012 was pretty cool though! -
Re: Maya FBX exporter crash
I've had this problem for quite a while. The only version of Maya that it seems to be okay on is Maya 2012 using FBX Plug in version 2012.1.1. Maya 2013/2014 crashes about every other export which is highly frustrating to say the least. Hope this helps anyone else. -
Maya - make live toggle script.
Donno how useful this is to anyone else, but I really like being able to quickly toggle "live" on and off w/o having to click through lists to re-enable the previous object. Its a very simple script, might be an easier way of doing it... etc.. Basically you run the first script make the select object live. After that,… -
Re: UV Squashing in Borderlands 2 on masks for color tints.
Oh hell yeah, I love smartypants solutions like this. 2048² in 2012 really isn't bad at all, and makes total sense if you think about it a little. They achieve loads of variation without extra vram usage, and the shader is probably as simple as yours, with not much overhead. While 'hero prop' probably is a bad term, it… -
3ds max 2014 - viewport canvas resolution issue
Hello, I just upgraded to 2014, and over all it seems like there's been a ton of improvements. But I have a new, and very annoying issue with viewport canvas. I'm hoping there is a simple button/setting to fix it, but I'm not sure where. My problem is that when I actually enable the paint tool, and engage with the texture,… -
Re: Having strange problems and cant launch 3ds max 2012
Greetings, I don't have 3Ds Max 2012. But there is maybe something you can try. Press "Windows Key + R" on the keyboard to open Run and type in %Appdata% and navigate to: AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\ In my case I have a folder here called 2017 - 64bit. If you have a folder here named to something like 2012. Open that and… -
Re: LOW-POLY ART
The shapes of these look interesting, would be nice to see them flying about Homeworld style. Maybe it's just the lighting setup here but the textures need a lot of work IMHO - at the moment they look like paper model kits with lines drawn on. Even a simple bit of specularity would help! A good reference for this type of… -

Re: Unusual problem with contour rendering while batch rendering in Maya 2015
Solution found. I'll post it here for anyone who encounters a similar problem. So contour rendering in Maya 2015 doesn't work quite the way it used to iun 2014. Single frame renders will work fine, but when you try to batch render you'll encounter problems. This is because maya 2015 now uses contour_shader materials that…
