Re: I hate maya...
Oh how novel, another 'Maya blows' thread! People never quite get this, but Maya is exactly what you want it to be.

Re: Mudbox compared to Zbrush
Objective strengths of Mudbox: - VDM stamps - Stable 64-bit version for years - Eminently usable - Cheap subscription price - Better viewport - Robust layers - Crossplatform (runs on Linux) - Better map baking, although usually not so great that you'd want to use it instead of Xnormal in most situations - You can paint… -

Re: Maya - Smooth Mesh preview
Hey Helder, I wrote this a while back for Autocon. Feel free to use it (works between 1 and 3) string $sel[] =`ls -sl`; for ($thisObj in $sel){ int $displaylevel[] = `displaySmoothness -query -polygonObject $thisObj`; if ($displaylevel[0] == 0) { //Go to 3 displaySmoothness -polygonObject 3; } if ($displaylevel[0] == 1) {… -
Re: Math behind Cubemaps and Normals (and how redo it manually?)
not totally sure what you mean when you say "declare". i think making a cubemap lookup function manually is a lost cause. it would be wiser to look into something like dual paraboloid reflection maps. the difference between a normalmap and a color map is simply the range. colors go from 0 to 1, normals go from -1 to 1. so… -

Re: Modular buildings - some technical questions
@jordank95 Thanks! 1) The air conditioner is made from trim entirely. There's more to the trim than you're seeing on the preview sphere and I haven't yet got around to posting a full shot of the trim. But there are actually quite few unique details you're not seeing. The grate covering the fan is also on the trim sheet and… -
Re: Uv Mapping a building
Here are some quick ideas I had: 1) Use a tiling brick texture. Not everything has to fit inside the 0-1 bounding box space, its fine if bits and pieces hang way off to either side, so feel free to break out of the bounding box if you need to. 2) If for some reason you MUST have everything inside the 0-1 bounding box area.…
