Re: 3DS Max Exporting Smoothing groups with Obj
I'm lost a bit here... If I'm exporting to a non-Zbrush software, I will use Maya preset each time. And when I load those models into another software (maya, xnormal) or engine, the "smoothing groups" are still there. Expanding on this - Smoothing Groups are a term for Max. Maya doesn't refer to them this way, instead they… -
Re: Photoshop CS4 questions
1. double click the layer called background to turn it into an editable layer 2. sounds like you're either using a tablet and the pressure sensitivity / the opacity is set too low or perhaps you have the hardness of the brush set to soft. Perhaps the brush had a soft edge to begin with. Check your brush settings press F5.… -

Re: Creating your own template for CV?
If you are listing a soft skill, like in this case OP might attribute their moving up to manager as "demonstrated leadership skill," "highly motivated to take on additional responsibility," that sort of thing, does it come across as kind of BS if you aren't linking it back to some education or work experience? Or maybe… -
Re: Investigating error(s) in Normal maps for use in Maya
For what I see here - all your edges on LP are hard (each poly have its own smoothing group). So first of all - separate all the UV shells. However, in this particular object (because of bevels) you can also make all edges soft and then sew all the UV shells in one strip - there will be some gradients, but overall result… -

Re: Hand-Painted Goblin and Dragon WIP
I think you need to work more on painting the forms and planes out, rather than just the colours, textures and soft shadows/ao. Just grab the brush tool and go nuts. Add highlights to planes that are facing up and shadows to planes that are facing down. Use small edge highlights to pop details out and contrast… -
Re: misc. maxscript UV scripts/tools
Hi there! Im late on the party but I just tried the tools and they are fantastic! One question tho - is there a way you could have UV soft selection controls in there? Just simple things : distance, and per topo VS per vert distance toggle. Soft selection might actually by in the default max toolset ... but I personally… -
Re: Smooth groups for low poly building
Eric, Maya lets you just click an edge and set it to hard or soft - honestly I think it's easier than smoothing groups 95% of the time - Smoothing groups took me a lot longer to work my head around than "hard edge/soft edge" Bevels can be better but they're not always the best solution and they aren't going to provide the… -
Re: How to add blood & gore to custom 3D character models?
Sof and l4d do it in completely different ways iirc. L4d used shaders to make fake holes in enemies whereas Sof simply had the characters broken into pieces when they were built. Both processes have been written up and published but you might struggle to find the sof stuff as it's a good 13/14 years old now (the system was…
