[Mudbox] Texturing lowpoly from Max in Mudbox glitches
Background details: I made a model in ZBrush and polypainted it. Made a lowpoly and used Topo to bake the polypaint info to a texture and worked on it with photoshop. Later I got a portfolio review and was told to try taking the model into Mudbox 12 and paint directly on the lowpoly as the polypaint from ZBrush had gotten… -
Swapping Max files seamlessly?
Hi guys, I'm doing some work for a programmer that only really uses max for viewing and exporting, so he has next to no clue about the material editor, shaders etc. I am trying to find an easy way of sending him a max file/zip with all the textures etc, and all he has to do it double click the file and Max finds all the… -
working with 3ds max and blender
hello, I really like blender and I am 10x faster modelling with blender than with 3ds max. I want to work someday in the (games) industry so I have to learn 3ds max anyway. My question now is, are there 3d artist that use both programs? For example, you have a job to do. In the end the client wants a 3ds max file. So start… -
exporting smoothgroups and UV´s (maya/max)
Alright guys, I´m tired of having to remake everytime my smoothgroups, or sometimes having to make in max/maya my uv´s and getting problems when exporting.

Re: Max textures won't reload
Because I haven't run into this problem, I can only offer advice that might lead you to a solution. 1. Try putting your texture in the same folder as your max file. Maybe Max is having difficulty finding the texture. 2. Make sure you're using a common single layer format like PNG as opposed to something that might be… -
3DS Max - UV's and Viewport Canvas - Straighten and Clipping
Hey to all, have two issues, anyone up for helping me solve them? Issue Number one: I have some fairly complex models (hard surface) which require unwrapping, and they also need to be straight (align the edges horizontally and vertically) because I have alot of straight dents and such for the normal map. I was wondering if… -
Re: Tips on getting rid of Normal Maps seams?
the guide for removing seams you posted is full of bad information. Two things- what does the smoothing look like on the object without any normal map applied? Also, what does an all 128,128,255 normal map look like when you apply it? Baking in xnormal for display in max viewport is pretty much never going to work… -
3ds max: XRefs for character animation
I've been working in both Max and Maya for years, and I try to be objective about both software packages. But one of the things that keeps bugging me about 3ds max is - working with references. No matter what I do, it feels like Maya's Referencing system is much more stable and reliable and more useful, compared to 3ds… -

(solved) snapping not accurate in 3ds max
Hey guys, I'm currently trying to blockout a level for a game in 3ds max so I'm trying to make the walls and stuff as modular as possible for re-use. Hours in I realized that the vertex snapping isn't working as it should. Can someone help me figure out what the problem is? Also what would be the best max grid/snap…
