[Designer] Issue with Material Transform Node
Hey I've got an issue with a Material Transform node in the way that it will not output the corresponding opacity output when opacity is toggled on in the channels of the node. The input will show up and the graph on the inside of the node only has the visible if input["opacity"] as its condition. For some reason it just… -

Re: preview using multi/sub-object materials MAX 7
Show Map in Viewport? It looks like a little checkerboard cube in the Material Editor. You will need to make sure that it is checked on for each sub-material. -
Re: Struggle to model a cut cylinder!!!
Lots of good advice so far. It's probably worth using all this feedback to create a few samples then compare the results, from a typical player's point of view, to see what works and what doesn't. Though it's also worth asking: How sharp is sharp enough and how good is good enough? As an example: Here's three cylinders… -
Amplifier model to practice materials
So I did this small prop (lol crate) it's a small amplifier. And made it with the purpose of releasing it here so that people can pratice their materials with it. The max file is max2009 and is using 3pshader Pro. But you can easily use the lite version. Inside the zip there is the normal map, difuse tga and the psd which… -
Re: Fixing material seams

Re: Material White Dot Artifacts
I've gotten this a lot with my material using my textures set to 'UI' in the LOD group, as well as 'Uncompressed Normals' for my normal maps. Rebuilding the lighting fixed it though. The white dots only show up in my material editor and the scene when lighting isn't built. This might be a dumb question, but is the lighting…
