Re: rendering a gradient map (top down) for my model
For future prosperity... There is a slightly simpler way to handle it. A) In the material editor, assign a gradient/gradient ramp to the diffuse slot of a material, go into that map slot. B) Set the map channel to 2, this will cause only this map slot to use UV2. C) Apply another UVW Unwrap modifier (you can delete this… -
3dsmax stack non-identical shells
Hey everyone, I'm trying to figure out how to stack several non-identical UV shells ontop of one another and have the verts roughly alighend and then run some kind of script that will perfectly match them all. A snap to nearest feature or something like that. It would have a threshold, I had as script like this in Maya and… -
Maya - Right Click Menus Gone
Hey, working in Maya 8.0, don't know what happened but for some reason my right click doesn't bring up the marking menus it should, but acts like middle clicking does (moves/scale/rotate/etc... along last used axis.)

It randomly shows edges as I move or rotate through the viewport (whether edges are turned on or off) and now when I rotate, all objects are drawn as bounding boxes (I know there is some way to change that in the preferences, but I… -
Is there a way to tweak spread parameter in splatter circular node?
I want the spread between each pattern to be random number instead of an average spacing. Unfortunately it isn't like the FX map, so I don't know how to write a function for randomizing that -
Re: Another Female Character WIP
Hi there! Great job so far. I did a quick paint over. I'm no anatomy expert, so just take my advice lightly. Having done a fair share of high-heeled heroines (because -ALL- heroines should be in hot sexy high heels) your boots bugged me a bit. Are they supposed to be high heels? Sorry I wasn't certain. One thing to… -

Re: ZSwitcher Maya Nav in ZBrush
tic toc tic toc, the clock is out on my trial. Guess I'll have to find out myself if there is really an upgrade path. As no one seems to know for sure ( maybe the email is stuck online somewhere? ) Done and done. nope. ptooey and hogwash. After ordering the personal license I still see no upgrade path. I think the mix up…
