Re: Creating faceted shadows
Did you check and see if the boxes 'Tangents' and such are ticked for your FBX file when exporting? Also, when importing, did you check and see if the One-Smoothing group is Off in UDK? Also, since you just want to 'print out the image' later on, and it's not actually do something like an MMO, why not save some headache… -
Re: 3D Sculpt Sketchbook
Hey thanks for the reply! Yeah i gotta re work the ear and I gotta get better ear reference. For the head I just winged it from a old female head base that i did a long time ago, so i didnt use much references. For the references I did use I used the Anatomy For Artists book I have laying around. The model will have hair… -
Re: Adding Jaw bone to biped in 3ds max
I'm not quite sure, but is'nt that the same as toggling the "always deform" checkbox in Skin's advanced rollout off and on again after bone adjustments, while the timeline is at the reference frame ? I have the suspection that the "set skin pose" command is just doing that internally PS: Out of curiosity i rechecked the… -
Re: Downsides of using PNG's for authoring textures?
The only downside I know of is in the way Photoshop handles PNG transparency. When exporting, by default, PS does not retain color information where the image is transparent. This will become problematic as soon as you want use the alpha for anything else than actual transparency after export (for masks for example). Also… -
Re: How do you think the Virtual Reality sales will do now its about to hit market?
I will say, part of the reason I dont think it will become super popular within the gaming market (because I do agree with @passerby that it might do really well with simulation / medical) is because I when I tried the oculus, about 15 minutes into it, I became very noxious and dizzy. Something I know will affect others.… -
Re: Work, Life, Balance / Work, Work, Work
I don't think it's just art industry, it's any job/career. I worked as a ballroom instructor for 2 yrs. During those time, I was the first to arrive at the studio to get some extra practice done. That was like 1-2 hr early. I took half lunch time only so the other half I could dance around the studio some more. And many… -
Re: [Environ} - Hillfort
Thanks for the reply. I'm not the most confident in zBrush. I can sculpt stuff pretty well but prefer to do my PS work in photoshop etc. I instead used the 'Viewport Canvas' Tool in 3DS Max to paint over the seams on the diffuse. I wasn't happy with the texture on those rocks from last night and decided to take BreaK's… -
Re: Why you should NOT trust 3ds Max's viewport normal-map display!
yeah, but maya just fixes the symptoms, not the problem :) there are many cases where I could have a cylinder shape, lets say a pipe, and I could just use a flat normalmap and work with that to create the end-result normalmap, because I knew that I would have a perfectly cylinder surface, if I would fix the triangulation… -
Re: Sketchbook: Kapoff
Next one: This guy was made in the just for the sake of using blender and gimp. Since my school pipeline was 3dsMax/Zbrush/3DCoat/Photoshop, I was wondering is a Blender/Gimp combo would be usable as a substitute of the my usual pipeline. Ans it appears to be quite a powerful combo. Blender pack a serious (but quite… -
Re: Hard Surface Stuff
Hello, thanks for the comments. Again, sorry It has taken a while to get back to you. Shepeiro, thanks for the feedback. I had used the smooth modifier with auto-smooth set to 60, so a single smoothing group shouldn't have been the issue. Perhaps then chamfering is the answer - I'll give it a go, although I'd come to…
