thanks, lets say I enjoy a challenge ;) I'm working on an efficient method of "rationalizing" any poly shapes/edge outlines etc so it doesn't break other tools (First rule of Tools, Artists break everything! ;) ).... you could just union them all to get a "bounding" poly but then you can't have holes. Max sdk has a built…
Idk the lore here for any of this its my 1st thoughts & yes i suppose that does happen with tall people they too look "stretched", guess i am not usually (nor do i notice) this elongated look to irl people. hmm i see even though your model is elongated its not as bad as i am seeing it on my end, here is a img, the site…
Anyone created a heightmap sucessfully in maya7 from hi res geo? I've tried many times and the result is all the same. The normal map looks fine and the help file clearly states just turn on heightmap to get a result. The heightmap created is banded and has noise in it and is unusable. It's almost like the heightmap does…
Hey, I've been using this script for the last couple days, rendering everything straight out of the viewport. It's really pretty cool, so fast for iteration! The script is working great, except I can't get it to load settings that I've saved off... I have to manually re-adjust every time I launch the script again. Not a…
How should I add detail to the lion's head? I've tried sculpting in Blender and haven't been able to get good results. The subdivisions I get while sculpting always seem to come out jagged. Is there something I'm missing or some settings I should change to improve the quality of the geometry without going overboard on the…
That just helps to illustrate why it's a bastardized phrase. The Wii is a next-gen machine, or at least it was when it released. It's not high end or high definition, but that's not what next-gen means. SD and HD work well enough to distinguish between Wii graphics and 360/PS3 graphics. The next console generation hasn't…
What do you get out of this? Was my 1st thoughts, if it is already answered i did NOT click the link. In the future it would be interesting how things "evolve/change-naturally/adapt", to people eventually realizing that there is an opportunity for a youtube channel producer, to make videos of websites and viewing an entire…
There's a definite trick or 2 to that workflow. Danny Mcgrath has a great tutorial that will get you as close as you can get. This is the promo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdCNht6vjoc .

I'm assuming the yellow parts are supposed to be gold, but the yellow color is a bit too saturated and leans more toward light green than the yellow-orange/brown tinge gold normally has. It also doesn't have the right metallic quality in its specularity, which makes the material definition feel more like plastic than gold.…
