Re: Help with Crazybump problem
I know you solved it already,but be aware that if you overlay a normalmap on top of another normal map in PS,you'll destroy the blue channel of the texture. What you can do is copy both blue channels from the seperate normalmaps into the blue channel of the combined normalmap(use screen mode to combine the blue channels in… -
Re: Mesh completely black when Normal Map is applied
Looks like the high-res has a big curve near the top that is getting baked in. So you should tighten up that top part with extra edge loops, or add a bevel to the low-res if you want the curve. Personally I would just create the normal map inside photoshop. It's a simple enough model, and you're doing the cleanup in… -
Re: VFX software for games?
what's in demand at my studio: shaders (HLSL / unreal), particles, nCloth (this is required frequently), Unreal, scripted effects (e.g. effects that follow a certain patter, effects interacting with objects, etc). Knowing your way around in AfterEffects is also useful when doing animated textures. Also useful if you know… -
Re: Mad Max: Fury Road
I think people heard "this movie uses a lot of practical effects" and misunderstood that to mean "this movie doesn't use much CG". Obviously that's not the case, it uses a ton of CG. What does set it apart and really make some of the visuals work IMO is that it does use way, way more practical effects than your average… -
Re: 3DS Max 2012 UV questions
Ok that script fixes the first problem, cool. Still silly they copy UVtools and then omit a function like this. Second one, mark, won't work like that. If I set it to 2:1, it also rescales all my Uv contents along, stretching them out to twice their width. I use the type-in afterwards to scale em back to 50% width. But I… -
Re: 3ds max connect 2 materials?
I'm looking at a script for you, but it's not quite there yet. I'm not great at MaxScript. If I manage to get something working I'll send it across to you. For the time being if you select the object mesh - right click - choose object properties - General Tab. On the lower right there is 'Rendering Control' with a… -
Re: [Unity] Space Shooter (Working Title)
Yeah i´m not that good in painting at the moment. Thats why i sculpted the asteroids as high res meshes in zBrush. I´m going to change the texture later to get rid of those stripes :) . Currently i´m doing a lot of scripting to get some basic singleplayer gameplay done and after hat i will continue with the multiplayer… -
Re: ART DUMP - Far Cry 4
Nono, those are two different roles at Ubi. We work in tandem with the level designer to flesh out the gameplay spaces. They usually do the initial blockouts of spaces for gameplay, handle AI scripting, encounters, etc. And we work with them to maintain and add to the gameplay intentions, do terraforming, do 1st pass art… -

Re: 3DS Max 2010-2012 Unwrapping rotation
max align tool doesn't work every time for me. I still don't know what is the changing factor. Won't work with angle snap on. Textools'one was more robust. Made one for myself in maxscript long time ago, that also rotates everything along their longest edge, instead of selecting edges one by one. Buggy and unprotected, but…
