Re: Scaling light entities in a single axis
you can use static mesh actors as lights instead of using a light actor. But you can't do that dynamically. http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/Lightmass.html#Mesh Area Lights from Emissive I would try using a light function to mask the light. It will make the light appear rectangular even though it isn't. Why can't you use a… -
Re: Introducing Handplane Baker
Thanks for the bug report- I will add that to the list. I am going to be testing a build after work tonight that has some smoothing override functions. The current default behavior is to use hard edges when the highpoly doesn't have normals ( so zbrush files match the viewport). The new functionality will smooth the mesh… -
Re: subscribed threads
*shakes fists in the air* Raise up from the dead, thread! So, I found myself in the same situation others here, and being a big nerd I wrote a rudimentary userscript to auto fav threads upon replying. It adds a small checkbox under the reply textarea that can be on or off by default: I thought it might be useful for… -
Re: Quixel: nDo & dDo news
Not entirely sure if you have done this already but for dDo; Iterative batch processing. Create many variations of the same texture by incrementing (layers/functions/). So lets say you want several crates made with differing levels of damage. Once you have the base material sorted in dDo, It then creates variations of that… -
Re: Callback problem with visual interface
Yep it is a scope issue: in first case myScript() is in global scope and the callback knows how to find it. If you run the first case, then run the second without restarting Max, the second case calls myScript() defined in global scope and not the one inside the rollout. If you want to call a function inside a rollout from… -
Re: [Maxscript] Making UV mapping suck a bit less.
idea... I was once working on a similar script that would rotate flattend UV clusters to readable directions, because often they appear flipped (180 turn or 90 or just random). It happened to many times that I stitched wrong verts because things looked right but were actually turned wrong or flipped on a axis. For that I… -
Re: Max script batch process question
I'm not sure I can test what you have going but lets see if I can help you structure things so they're a little more manageable and readable.(--Start of Script---------------------------------------------------DECLARATIONS---------------------------------------------------thePath = getSavePath() --get a path dialog to… -
Re: Pixel Processor and sequenced lerps
I just made a pixel processor function that also could have benefited from a loop. To simplify things I built the functions up in blocks of 32 pixels each and multiplied each variable in the block by the block number. This means for a 512 pixel wide image I only needed 16 blocks. For my function I only had 1 variable and 2… -

Re: [Mel Script] Delay issue?
oh it's ok... I change some function... And I finally keep the lsit of the all file exported in the process.... Then I create a last function it's editing all files one by one... but at the end!
