Re: Which software do you love the most to work with (for whatever reason)?
Pycharm is brilliant (so are the other intelliJ IDEs) it's an absolute essential for python development IMO Max - it's just better than everything else if you want to make models. Substance designer - it's the bedrock of any sensible material pipeline, its scriptable, extensible and incredibly powerful. Substance painter -… -
Re: (Solved) [Blender 2.8] Shader Editor: Is there a light direction input node?
Two suggestions: 1) Go back to 2.79, as the Blender Internal render engine supports the Blinn specular and is quite fast to render. There's also the Blender Game render engine that in some simple cases is fantastic (this is the 3D View): 2) Go put in a vote so that GLSL PyNodes gets eventually committed to Eevee, it's a… -
Re: New year's resolutions for 2016

Re: [Art-Dump] - Jordan Kocon
ALright, its been a while since I posted, been busy with travel and such. The python is on the backburner, but I came across one of Aaron Foster's concepts and he gave me permission to use it. I really want to dig deep into UDK, and here is an early shot of the level, and some of the highpoly's. All the textures are… -

Re: Duplicate along curve script[WIP] - Maya

Re: Becoming a Tools Developer
C++ , Python, and math skills. From there you should be able to create your own apps, or get to learning the API for larger programs (3DSMax/Maya/etc.) to create tools specifically for them. And yes, you'll need to know the creation process/pipelines for 3D art if you want to create tools to help 3D artists. Also:… -
Re: How to update older scripts for newer versions of maya
I recommend python because most answers are a google search away. A lot of the MEL stuff is on 10 year old web pages that may be out of date. The documentation is a good place to start. As for updating scripts. Usually they just work. I'm using a couple of scripts from CreativeCrash from 2003/2004. I'll need a specific… -
Re: PyMel[Maya] accesing hue in color
AFAIK you need to give the materials rgb values. A quick Google suggests maya doesn't have any built in functions to do the rgb-hsv-rgb conversion so I'd suggest using PIL or one of the other image libraries to deal with the maths because vanilla python is ill suited to the sort of sums you have to do. Normally I'd say to… -
