*sigh* Voted for it with my collegue. Seems like this was introduced by the newer bevel algorithm of Maya 2016, as it is reproduced in Maya 2016 without Extension 2. The old algorithm, forced with the following command, behaves correctly: polyBevel -com 1 -fraction 0.5 -offsetAsFraction 1 -autoFit 1 -segments 1 -worldSpace…
Here's an easy way to fix it. If you laid out your shells outside the 0 to 1 space, into 0 to -1, -1 to 1, etc. Here's an easy way to remedy it: Here's your shells outside the 0 to 1 Select them and move your scale pivot up to 1, 1. Like so: Then scale your shells in both U and V directions until they fit nicely into the 0…
About a month ago I came up with a list for a new image. I have a few more apps in a folder at home that I plan on testing before adding to the list. I have been planning to investigate virtualising some of the apps and Deep freezing. Anyway, here is the list as it currently stands; [size=+1]OS Updates and AV [/size]…
Hi all, I couldn't figure out how to properly unpack a normal map with Blender. My normal map's RG are stored in a texture's G/A channel. I am trying to reconstruct B, combine, then supply it to the normal map node. Question: how does the normal map node work though? (What color input does it expect? 0~1 range? -1~1 range?…

Its not that they don't have skinning, its that the verts are weighted 100% to one bone. A lot the early 3D games from the original PlayStation used 1:1 skinning.

UDK is in tangent space by default. If you want normals based on the view you can do that with the vector transform node (as was done previously). If you want values in the range 0 to 1 instead of -1 to 1, add 1 divide by 2. That should give you something that looks more like the example (minus the fact that some may be…
