I'm new at this, so this may sound stupid. What is a cage when talking about xNormal? I'm having troubles with making an AO and I fear that may be the issue.
Anybody heard about any updates? Santiago's blog was deleted, it seems like. Last I heard he was talking about working on xNormal 4, but it's been a little while!
Ah, in terms of layout design is something I agree that should change, I thought they were specifically talking about 'looks' only (darker hues, non-raster images, etc). My bad.
when you say it triangulates wit the API, are you talking about just using the API to access the rendering triangles and export those, or is there some other form of triangulation in OpenMaya i dont know about?
I'm not sure I see the issue you're talking about on the sides of the object. If you're seeing some sort of color banding, I'm not seeing it. Are you using an LCD screen? Some can't display gradients very well, and give the appearence of banding.
