[3dsMax] F3 Wireframe and J outline
Max 2012 Every time I hit F3 to view a wire, the J key viewport selection show selection outline toggle resets to on. It never used to do that in previous versions, I could just hit J and it wouldn't bother me again. I hate the thing and always turn it off as soon as I start modelling. It's now driving me insane and I… -
3dsmax 2018 to unity 2017.1 Pivot problems
I have a file in Max2018 which I am trying to import into unity . Normally I would rotate the pivot by 90 degrees on the x-axis, set the asix conversion in the fbx export to Z-up, and that would have the object come with 0,0,0 rotation atributes in unity. But it looks like max 2018's exporter is conflicting with unity and… -
Consumer ATI cards + 3dsmax normal maps
I've been working on normal mapping stuff here lately, and I've noticed some issues with viewing normal maps in the viewport (using Ben Cloward's FX files).

I've got the seams set up as best I know how: But when I go to pelt map, it seems to only want to pull out the eye: Naturally this has less than desirable results: Did I do something wrong? How do I fix this? -
3dsmax 2012 map updating
Hi, my 2012 max has serious issue with map updating. When I'm using shader like Xoliul or 3pointlight it sees some maps as a previous versions. It doesn't update them in viewport and when I go to a window where i choose the map and click on the map i want it shows previous version. here the gloss map is really bright but… -
Sand crap over my 3dsmax AO bake
max 2010 win 7 rc Hi First AO bakes with mentalray. I am very impressed with the quality. Only I have grain stripes and splotches over the bake. I thought this was the element settings so I put them up to 100 samples and increased MR's sampling to 4/16. Took a while but you can see the result below with the local dirty… -
Re: How to unwrap 3dsmax body objects (imported from inventor fusion)
Screenshot? What does the wireframe look like? Have you tried using a standard unwrapping workflow? For example, look about 1/3 down this page for "Example: To use Peel Mode" http://docs.autodesk.com/3DSMAX/15/ENU/3ds-Max-Help/files/GUID-EA10E59F-DE7F-497E-B399-6CF213A02C8D.htm -
3dsmax - viewing normal map error
I have Max 8 and want to create / view normal maps, but they display as solid black in the viewport. I'm sure I have everything setup correctly but when I check "DX Display of Standard Material" it goes black. When I uncheck it, the diffuse displays correctly. (the normal map texture looks correct too - and when I render,…
