Normal map baking gone horribly wrong. [Maya 2017]
Hello friends, So, I'm working on a final project for my modeling ii class, and as the criteria was "any moving vehicle", i decided to be a pompous ass and do something that was probably way out of my league; the FFR-41MR "Mave", aka the plane from Yuukikaze. TL;DR, i'm at normal map baking and having some horrible… -
What's Your Modo?
I thought it would be helpful to new users in particular to share how I've customized my Modo for direct modeling and UVing Unreal Engine 4 game assets: Preferences Defaults > Animation Frames per Second = NTSC (30.0) Defaults > Application Group Selection Cmds = Uncheck Item Index Style = Item_2 Defaults > Auto Save Time… -
Seeking Artists for Online Action-RPG
Heyo, I have been planning and prototyping this idea the few months and I am just about ready to take it to the next level. It will be an online action-RPG with anime inspired characters set in a realistic environment. But right now its a bunch of packages from the Unity asset store glued together. If you're thinking "Oh… -
3DS Max, instances and collapsing etc
I'm just curious about 3DS Max quad menu 'collapse to editable poly' When I use it it destroys instances links. Usually when you collapse a stack for an object with instances you use 'collapse to' in the stack menu right click drop-down. But if I want to select hundreds of objects many of which are unique and some are… -
Question about 3dsmax Peel Mode
Hi Couldn't find any threads about this. It's a small issue/question. For people who use Peel Mode in uvw 3dsmax 2012 or higher, is there a way to prevent max from making an initial deformation on the uv island that you select? (Quick Peel / Peel Mode) Typically I'm happy with my UV shells and only want to use Peel mode… -

I have been experiencing an assembly problem while modeling with Maya
For the last couple of weeks I have been using this tutorial ,which was originally intended for 3DS Max, to model a character for the first time ever. Things have been going well until I got to the assembly section where I was asked to connect the ear with the head (first page of that part). Whenever I connect the the two… -
R&D - Topology and Female features
Hi! I decided to push away from sculpting for the traditional approach so that I could get the full experience. This is my first time managing my topology as I've done, but I want to take it farther. I've found CGI and VFX such an interesting area to explore and just want to make my works more accessible, functional and… -
Final Fantasy 7 Animation
I've been thinking about trying to do this for a long time. For the last few years, I've been working on a series of audiobooks called On The Way To A Smile. They tell the story of FF7's characters after the events of the game. The story I want to tell concentrates on Tifa and Cloud. They feature heavily in this novella.… -
Making pattern follow non-cylindrical curved surface. (pistol grip pattern)
Hey guys, I was wondering how to get a diamond pattern to follow the shape of a pistol grip around an awkwardly curved surface. I've been searching everywhere and from what I've found people generally add this pattern on a cylinder, or pistol grip sides, but never the whole way around. I'm using 3dsmax. I've tried an ffd…
