Well there are multiple parts to this: A. Custom mesh normals as in anything but a completely averaged mesh. Simply having edges set as hard qualifies as "custom" so if you're exporting straight from blender and into a game engine that is an issue. B. Exporting not only normals but also tangents and bi-normals is a very…
I applied at Backflip Studios for the position of 3D Character artist on Dragonvale World about 10 days ago. I did get a screening call setup with the art director, but without even starting into that he pretty much let me know that they were looking for someone mid-senior experience for the position. He did say that he…
Steam version is non-transferable, as it falls under the software subscription version. I am looking for something compatible with the 'Directive 2009/24/EC Article 4(2) Case C-128/11 UsedSoft vs Oracle' if interested in the legal details.

Forget why i had…
Hey, glad you could get Max. I love it, and once you get the jest of where everything is, and how it works you will too. I have watched a ton of tutorials to see which teaching styles I like, and I have found that Infinite Skills has a very comprehensive DVD for you to learn from. It covers all aspects of Max. I highly…
Hmm, I can't imagine why it would change anything about the UVs. It is only skinning to a rig. Perhaps you had a couple of UV sets present before uploading to mixamo and it chose the wrong one. Use the UV set editor in maya to double check that. If that isnt the problem, upload an .mb file of the model you are sending to…
Where to begin? It's nice that you're doing fan-art, it helps to keep motivation during portfolio hell. Though be mindful that a scene like this isn't necessarily going to scream "Bloodborne" to anyone looking at it. Don't lean on it for recognition.
