Re: Maya 2016 selection problem
There might be some confusion here with how this UI feature works. If under Preferences > Settings you have the Select faces with option set to Center, face center dots will always display when in face mode (you can't disable them), and you will always need to have your cursor near the center for the pre-selection to… -
[3ds Max] Skewmesh: Tessellate Smoothing Artifacts (Solved)
I'm trying to use the skewmesh technique for baking normals, but I'm having trouble with the Tessellate modifier creating weird smoothing in 3ds Max 2017. These smoothing artifacts appear in the baked world space (and subsequent tangent space) normal map in Substance Designer. I have a finished, UVW Unwrapped, and Reset… -
Re: Game Industry Layoffs - WTF?
Luigi was an idiot. He could have used his inheritance to do a world of good and instead is facing the death penalty head on. All his actions did was expose many women attracted to criminals who regularly show up to support him like Harley Quinn. Many of these women were once men and I don't know if Luigi swings both ways.… -

Re: Per-pixel lighting equations on a smooth shaded mesh

If all three vertex normals are pointing in the opposite direction of the light, the "smoothed" vertex normal will be to. It will not orient to the… -
Re: SHODAN again and again...
thanks for the comments everyone. mule: yeah, i dunno what i'm going to end up doing with her, but ending up with some sort of in-game asset would be cool. maybe normal mapped something or other, who knows. Toomas: as you can see from the SS2 version of her, i've put the eyes about as far apart as they are in that version.… -

[Solved] Fading opacity in UE4
Hi everyone, It must be so simple, however i can't figure out how to render a smooth opacity fade. I only found translucency to do it, but it doesn't render fully opaque where i would like to and seems unlit. In my case it's for dense dust in the corners of a window. How should i make it ? Thank you -
