Normal map problem - max 7
hi guys, i been tryin to figure out this whole normal mapping business today with little success... Im using Max 7's render to texture and my problem is the normalmap seems to be baked by the low poly mesh or somethin? Here is my two objects: One is a edit polygon cylinder with a unwrap modifier on top and the other is a… -
Mat id projection help (3ds max)
Max decided to reset all of my material IDs while I had a single material on my model, and after spending about a day unwrapping and baking AO I realized my material IDs were gone. For some reason my autobackup had reverted to only 3 saves every 5 minutes and my last incremental save was from the day before. The model has… -
Re: Weird lines with normal map after importing mesh from Max to Maya
Post the normal map. Do you see the seams there? This looks like an issue I get sometimes if I forget to smooth edges on a model before baking. I don't think inverting the normal map will fix this -- this isn't like the entire thing is shading the wrong way, it's just some bad edges. In Maya, try unlocking the normals and… -
Specular color/ specular level map in 3ds max 2010 question
Hello guys. I am working on a game character model and I would like to use the standard 3ds max 2010 shader for it. I am just not sure what goes under the specular level map slot? I know that my specular map should be under the specular map slot and the same one but gray scaled should be nested in to the glossiness slot,… -
3ds Max: Baking other maps.
I have made some assets in Max some time ago. They are mostly modular, but at the time I weleded them together, they have no back faces, and I had no concept of keeping things "on the grid" for UDK. Now I find myself rebuilding them. Most of their old asset's textures come from 512x512 maps that are box projected onto… -
Can I bake local thickness maps with 3DS Max?
I'd like to start by saying I'm a programmer and not an artist, so my knowledge of 3D software is quite limited, plus most of it pertains to Blender and not 3DS Max. Ok, so I came across an article by EA/DICE on Approximating Translucency for a Fast, Cheap and Convincing Subsurface Scattering Look. Somewhere in the… -

Re: Normal Map displayed flawless in Marmoset, bad in 3ds Max & Vray
Damn, okay.. :D But do you get at least your normal maps you created with substance to display correctly in 3dsmax? I could bake it elsewhere, no problem. Like i mentioned, toolbag 3 is reaally good at it, but i can't use it for max because it won't be displayed correctly... So basically this is doomed, i can't use other… -
3ds max non-uniform texure map?
![TorQue[MoD]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/978/n9Y8GE4KMHMJB.jpg)
Hey all. Just wondering if anyone could tell me how to properly set up a non-uniform texture map in 3ds max (2010)? It seems that max defaults to square textures and when I tried to change this to something like 1024x256 it completely stretches the UVW Checker pattern. I figure if I just scale the UVW vertically to fill… -
3DS Max, problems with normal map bake
Hello, I am trying to bake some normal maps in 3ds max but I am getting a problem when I take them into photoshop and save them again. Here is what the normal map looks like straight after I have baked it. here is what it looks like after I have simply opened it in photoshop and then saved it out again. and here is the…
