Re: SOS why is my skinning ass
are you using the default smooth tool in maya? It doesn't work very great. (it doesnt do a good job of being smart about where to get influences from) Look into getting the NG skin tools plugin if you aren't already. It has smooth brush that actually works as you'd expect. If using default tools, instead of smooth brush,… -

MaxScript: Playback Curve Editor Friendly
Download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/htxdfvllh94lils/Martinez_Macro_Playback.mcr?dl=0 One of the banes of my existence (with 3ds Max) is that you can't have the Curve Editor open when you hit the play button because the viewport slows to a crawl. You either need to deselect all your objects, or you need to close the editor.… -
Light building nonsense, light map problems?
Okay, so I'm trying to put together a little outside winter piece to put one of my characters in. I worked on a cabin and decided to see how it would look in a basic UDK map. I simply opened the default night scene and put my cabin with the textures in. Then I generated lught maps for my cabin meshes within. After that, I… -
Max 9... what units for Decay in Displace?
I'm trying to setup a SuperSpray particle system in Max 9.1 that mimics how doppler shrinks/expands sound waves as objects approach/recede from the emitter. I'm using a cylindrical Displace spacewarp, with a Gradient Ramp, and all is well. I just can't visualize out how the Decay spinner works. I'd like the displacement to… -
