Hey this is interesting! I'm not sure I quite get it 100% cus I'm still fairly new with modo in general. When using Vertex Map >> Color Tool I can only click each vertex to make it 0% alpha, whenever i airbrushed it across the mesh it painted on the mesh (instead of just affecting alpha), where can I set which map to…
Can't reasonably be done under 100 triangles. With extruded tapered sides those sideshields are (6*4)+(2*2)=28 triangles per shield, 56 in total. That leaves only 44 triangles for the scope, sphere, antenna and that horizontal rod. There's a way if your engine supports double-sided faces but then (technically) it would go…
Let me add one thing about Crazybump. You aren't just paying for a great tool. You are paying for great support and continued development. You know, there was a time (real or imaginary) where software developers engaged with the community, took ideas, got feedback, and actually listened. We have the ear of an incredibly…
okay I posted this over at CG Talk and didn't get a lot or responses so I'll try my luck here. some things i need clarification on... -graphics engines treat objects as surfaces, in effect making all objects open meshes (it's impossible to create totally seamless UV's), so does that mean creating water-tight meshes is…
For what it's worth, this has been annoying me for the last few months so I did some digging and debugging and found out that the culprit was indeed the virtual shadow maps and that I could see the clipmap/mip level issues in the debug view. Directional light popping: Debug view: For the directional light, I edited the…
Hello ! Well, Substance Painter will never be the actual target environment for the model to be displayed in - an actual game engine will be. Hence I personally see no point in giving *any* attention to the way things shade in Substance Painter (outside of making sure that the generators behave as intended). In other…
I was using this Mel script to switching between different camera angles for years but when I updated to Maya 2024 it stopped working. Can you please help me to fix it? Thank you. global proc switchCam(int $snap) { int $check = 0; string $switchCam; string $switchCamP = "switchCam_Persp1"; string $switchCamO =…
I was talking about Washington state and the Puget sound area sorry should have been more clear. I was starting to explain my personal situation and how it influences my take on the overall discussion. For me 100% electric car would have next to zero impact on the environment and the price of oil hardly effects the way we…
from an audio engineer (sound design) /composers perspective it could vary allot but assuming you start with the bare miminum (nothing pirated) and your composer has little : - sound libraries for DAW compositions : depending on your need and budget this could take up between 100 +- 2000+ dollars. Think of sound libraries…
I haven't focused on loosing weight (still at the 78~79kg range) but I can see about another 2~3kg left and it just ain't going away. Need to work on mid section more. I changed my workout... 3 days a week I do: 100 x 20kg bicept (one rep) 100 x 30kg pec/trap (one rep) 100 x 30kg back (one rep) 50 x 20kg triceps (one rep)…
