Hi, im pretty new to maxscript. my main scripting experience from before has been in c# so there are many things that are a bit puzzling to me. right now im scratching my head because of this one: take this code for example: splineObj = selection[1] print (numsplines splineObj) as string Outputs: "3" But this: splineObj =…
Hi, Klunk. Thank you for the code. So, it appears to be working right now. I also edited the code to create a new script to write out the contents of the vertices connected to the bone. However, it's only printing it out the short version of an array - with three periods separating the first element from the last. Is…
Thanks Tacticman. The initial sides were something like 24, but I deleted it into just 3 edges and then rotational arrayed it and mirrored it. That way I could just work on one little section and have the whole thing made at the same time. Trick is to add a cylinder or a circle shape there too to make sure its matching the…
I guess my main concern is that I'm a college graduate in my mid 20's who really needs to establish a career. I also made the mistake of taking out $35,000 for student loans, working only on class projects, and generally not being focused on the craft while in college. As I've been working on my portfolio for the past…
ok, im home now and can elaborate more on the issue at hand... I havent updated or anything... Im still using the same version ive always used with maya 2013 that I have on my windows side... I just exported with it about two weeks ago when I did a personal project for my portfolio... and it worked just fine... The errors…
Thank you so much for the reply and I look forward to your own art dump! It sounds like getting to work in small teams of a Modeler + Texture Artist + Lighting Artist would provide you the fastest workflow/pipeline to see results quickly. Hopefully you enjoyed switching up disciplines and getting to contribute to…
Looking at the stones, there is no way this could ever be from photo to normal, those are very likely 3D sculpted and then baked down. Youll never get such normals from a bitmap to normal generator. This is kinda what you get from a bitmap to normal generator, used the same stone image as base. The tool can not possibly…
You make a good point Zwebbie, while I'm vulnerable to nostalgic themes, an easy escape from the mindcrunch, I also completely get where Rhodes is coming from. Cghub is now like a foe to try and overthrow with fractured originality. And I would very much enjoy some deeper themes as well. I often find now that I'll lean…
Thanks for all the positive feedback guys, I'm glad everyone seems to be digging the idea as much as I am! Not a terribly interesting day update-wise, just a couple of wall sections. I seem to be working my way around the office mezzanine level in an anti-clockwise direction, so next up will be the large vault-like door /…
