Re: 3dsmax FBX wont export smoothing groups
Actually I have a similar problem with FBXs going into Unity. Models using Editable Poly as the base modifier often come in with twisted UVs or messed-up smoothing. I solve it by simply adding a Turn To Mesh modifier on top, then exporting. Works every time. Not sure if SP would work the same, but worth a try. -
Re: Textures - Snow/Sand Bases
You can get a good start using a plane and a few modifiers. Also, the new substance materials have a decent sand texture, tag that with a modified plane then use RTT and projection to get a good start on the normal map. It's also fairly easy to make it tile. http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1216404&postcount=4 -
Re: Rigged/Skinned Model Scale Scripts?
I know that CAT has RigResizer. but it's not script. it's a plugin and it's not free(except for 3ds max 2011). but as Chai told, you should be able to export your rig, envelopes, or weights then delete skin modifier, scale bones and model and load information on a new skin modifier. I didn't test this myself, but you… -
Re: How to chamfer this
So its more like a modifier? Like the Chamfer modifier rather than the edit poly tool? I want to go to modo, are there any other cool tools for sub-d? If there were some awesome video series like an Eat3d Guide to Modo, it be using it in no time flat. Anything you can suggest Pedro? -
Re: 3DS Max - Normal Bend to Target Mesh
In your specific example you would just have to select both meshes and add the "Edit Normals modifier". After that you can either select both normals and click on Average "Selected". Or select just one of them click "Copy Value", select the other one and click "Paste Value". Finally collapse the modifier. -
Re: 3dsmax 2017 : Unable to select certain vertices. [solved]
Hi guys. Thank you all for the replies. I appreciate the response and help. I found a solution to my problem. I solved the issue pretty much through sheer luck and lots of trial and error. Last night. I applied a ''ProOptimizer'' modifier from the 3dsmax modifier list and after calculating it miraculously worked! -
Re: Triangulation
the reason why i (personally) triangulate is to make sure that both target engine and export both have exactly the same triangulation. in max i'll use a triangulate modifier (non-destructive) and export the mesh for baking down normalmaps etc. and keep the modifier there for final export to engine, that way i'm absolutely… -
Re: Hiding pieces on a rigged and animated mesh for interchangeability
So you need to take off just a piece of her clothing? You probably should have made the removable clothing separate objects so you can just hide and unhide as you see fit. If you have a skin modifier on the mesh adding anything on top of the stack will mess with your skin modifier. -
Re: Vertex Paint problem in 3ds max
Vertex Paint doesn't store the vertex colors, the colors are stored in the vertices themselves. Try going to Object Properties and turning on Vertex Channel Display. Do the colors still show up? Your exporter might require the modifier to be there simply to "see" the vertex colors... did you try adding a Vertex Paint… -
