Re: A short explanation about custom vertex normals (tutorial)
So I'm attempting this utilizing weighted normals within Blender. I've run across a use case that I'm having some difficulty working around. Essentially the issue is construction of a modular level kit where the outer edges of the mesh need to be sharp. However when implementing weighted face normals if the outer edges are… -
Re: A short explanation about custom vertex normals (tutorial)
So, has anybody the correct script for 3ds Max for a good weighted normals? I'm using so far the FWN script from scriptspot but isn't good at all :'( !!
