Re: Model Viewer (Programming Pimp)
[ QUOTE ] I exported an obj from max to you viewer and the smooth groups were all messed up. [/ QUOTE ] .OBJ files do not retain smoothing group information. smoothing groups are used in Max because the .3ds format cannot store accurate vertex normals. try setting hard edges. and it's best to export .obj files from max… -
Work in Progress Steyr TMP
Hello peeps! I'm working on a gun model and was hoping if I could get a few pointers. I modeled the high res gun in Max and I applied a turbo smooth modifier. On my low, I manually added smoothing groups. I went ahead and baked in normals with x-normals and I'm getting gradient issues. I hope someone can help me locate and… -

How to properly display baked normal map in Max's viewport?
Hi, I baked normal map which looks good applied on lowpoly model in Marmoset Tooolbag. Of course, lowpoly model has all Smoothing Groups set from UV Shells which looks ugly without normals but with Normal map applied - looks smooth and seamless, well you know. But when I load it in Max and activate Normal map, the model… -
Re: Wooden Gold Rifle
I am no pro weapon artist but to me this looks good. Are you SubD modeling this? What program are you using to model this? It might help to look over this thread for a more smooth accurate appearance at the polygon stage. (once you see some professionally crafted short guides that show both wire-frame and smoothed version… -
Re: WIP, Futuristic trashcan, looking for technical imput
My first guess is that the smoothing groups are the source of the problem. It's trying to smooth the long narrow quads with the square quads on the bevel. Have you tried setting the flat surface and the bevel to separate smoothing groups before baking to see if this helps? If it does, you might still get an artefact along… -
Re: Marmoset UV's Exploding!
Oh, many thanks! That was actually the problem. Since I haven't marked the mesh as "smooth" on Blender, Marmoset thought that each face was a separate smoothing group. Probably would work the same when exporting from Max using the Smooth modifier. Also, it is good to know that the Marmoset could handle that many polygons,… -
Re: Facing Everyday Objects
Normal map baking: -every uv island needs to have its own smoothing group on the low poly -you will need to separate uv islands where you have diagonals or close to diagonals (70-90 degrees) So if you have a cube every side is a uv island and all 6 uv islands have their own smoothing groups. Can't see how your smoothing… -
Re: Male arm sculpt
well these arms in question will eventually be for a medieval warrior/hero sort of thing, so i think built is the way to go. Ive hit a wall of sorts now though, Im trying to paint some pores, but the way i do it i need to use the smoothing brush in places, and i already have some other skin detail down, which gets…
