Re: 3D Modeling Techniques and advice on Maya
OMG I LOVE THE MOVE TOOL!! It depends on what you're doing, but the snap/pivot edit mode (d key) is awesome and incredibly useful, particularly in hard surface or architecture stuff. The ctrl, shift and ctrl+shift keys change in this context too. For example if you have a set of verts you need to move along some weird… -
Re: Gears of War Judgment Art
ae. - thanks dude, that means a lot! :) m4dcow - thanks! here is how I layed them out. I tried to do just as flat as possible, so we could get easy reuse out of it if needed. The lower section in the unwrap is the small gutter piece. In hindsight, I could have done a lot more with them, but production is what it is :)… -
Re: Cobra Mech Tank
i realize its a scifi shooter and anything goes and realisms out...... but i dont suppose maybe trade out the glass or what ever material it is for a sturdier metalic canopy? something along the lines of a metal gear or something, or maybe just more metal with strategically placed glass view ports. personally i think it… -
Re: Game Developer's Conference 2007 (GDC)
I went for the past 2 years (got free passes) and had a damn blast. Got completely wasted at the Autodesk party. Met poops for the first time. Hung out with Sean Miller and Mike Brown from High Moon into the wee hours of the day at a hookah bar. Hung out with the massive black guys. Android is amazing. Got a free space… -
Re: LOST - season 3
The current theory is... huh? Whos? The internets? haha Everyone has theories Also, Adewale's (Eko) traffic violition was dismissed. He was pulled over for not having a drivers license when in fact he did. He was never charged. In the pilot episode there's a smoke-monster trail similar to the one we saw in tonights episode… -
Re: modeling race tracks (futuristic)
That problem about the inner part of the corner being leveled to the ground, and the outer one being lifted, is really simple to solve. Check the section spline of your racetrack, and notice where the pivot is. Probably it's not centered, and this is causing an imprecise banking. After you center the pivot to the shape's… -
Re: Uncharted 4 Art Dump
thx for the answer Rogelio, wow how convenient for the artist. :) I wonder there is some rules not to put modular junks in ma files... ( my bad habit when working on Raw files ) but seems like pretty good solution. good job to @d1ver or Andrew :) for making good foliage sim, ( is that u who help that right?) it bend… -
Re: [CATrig / CATmotion] How do you stop the foot bones from always pointing down?
The link you think is the foot, is actually just CAT's poor visual representational of the foot. It's a link from the ankle to the toes and doesn't visually have a heel or a sole, but technically is grounded. Bones are just pivot points, some people dress them up to actually look like the things they should represent,… -
Re: Maya modeling speed hotkey or marking menu
marking menus are amazing, i'm happy with the default marking menus. I really only use the shelf for a few things, some custom MEL scripts, Delete History, Center Pivot, Freeze Transformations, Reset Pivot maya is very Right hand (mouse hand) intensive with navigating and flicking the mouse in every direction for the… -
Re: (Marmoset Toolbag 4.02) Geometry being moved when I import my model?
So it looks like it's finally working now. What I did was attach the affected meshes to their counterpart on the other side, detach them, and then center each of their pivots relative to the mesh. After that, I reimported the model into Marmoset and that seems to have worked. I noticed that it looked like Marmoset was…
