For one reason or another 3ds max does not display vertex ticks when I turn off nitrous and switch to direct3d through customize>preferences. I know this for a fact because I did a simple reboot leaving nitrous still off and got the same results no verts. I then switched back to nitrous and rebooted and I had the verts.…
I was just wondering how would you approach an animation where a character needed to put on/ take off clothing (like getting dressed in the morning, putting on a coat, etc)? Thanks in advance.
I've watched two tutorials that don't mention anything about trimming/cutting fibermesh hair. I've tried creating a mask then hitting delete and it does not work. I watched this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEXJMSPikko - Which clearly did not cover the basics, since I can't even trim and cut the hair. I've…
I'm wondering if anyone knows if there is a 3ds max script to do this. Basically, the problem I have is I have this super complicated mesh that has uvs off the 1to1 space. There is like 12x12 tiles off uv space so all 100 and some spaces have there own textures. I don't have the original files and it would take forever to…

This is what I have so far, layer texture, top layer is an environment cube set to additive, buttom layer is the diffuse texture, this is working great and I have a reflection map plugged in where I want it to be reflective. My question is can I some how hook…

It's way too intense for what I'm doing, and i HATE that it applies it to the edges of every object, regardless of distance.... (I'm talking about the actual dynamic pass,…

Just got back from a 3d animation job overseas and thought I'd start a game environment, as I eventually want to work in games and not animation. Normally, I don't use other people's concept art as reference, but I think I might give it a go this time. I'm really looking forward to the new Deus Ex. Really loving its sci-fi…
I've been retoplogizing in Maya for the last couple of hours, and it is exhausting not being able to make triangles easily with the tools they give you (I'm retopoing stylized fur). I have a copy of Topogun 2, and I would love to pick up where I left off in it, but I can't find any documentation on it or anything in it's…
