When you are done with your weighting, you can convert all the vertices to "Modified". This will allow you to add bones without any of their weights changing. When a vertex is tagged as "Modified" changing the size of the cross sections no longer updates the influence on the vertices, and the influence can only be changed…
Couple hidden things I use daily and can't live without now Symmetry Tools: Realigns symmetry without using a symmetry modifier. I use this under a skin modifier all the time to make tweaks on one side and then transfer to the opposite. Saves a huge amount of time. Modifier Button Sets: You can add commonly used modifiers…
Hello again everyone! Just wanted to do some additional posting and highlight some of the features that I have implemented for my game, some of these features are from tutorials that I followed and reverse engineered for my project and some are plugins purchased from the Unreal Marketplace that I implemented in my game.…
I also wondered about the same thing so i went ahead and started learning the basics of blender, it has so many features, idk about its future or that of maya or 3ds max but for me the only issue is its a pain remembering all the hotkeys and stuff for the packages. These days i just stick to 3ds max(because i started with…
So I changed the color scheme a bit around. I'll probably toy with it more once I get the functionality of the site back. I also decided to only use that font on the header and buttons. The rest will be a more readable font, good call pangarang. I'll look into a watermark in the bg eventually. So darker outline and maybe…
I originally voted for "I'd gladly pay a reasonable price" but after brad's comments, maybe "reasonable" is too vague... I don't think anything over $50 is "reasonable" for a model previewer. Efficiency/speed is the highest thing on my list (which I guess is the same thing as ease of use). Its the main reason I use…
Thanks guys @Pior: No one really knows exactly what the garg is (except for Valve I guess). The impression I got was it was a sort of biomech thing, but I can't say for sure hehe. PS. When starting with Blender I found it much more helpful to customise the UI, I put 4 viewports with the buttons window down the right (the…
Okay, I was recommended to publish the site from frontpage. I have to put in my ftp site location, directory (web/content) and then my user name and password. I fill this in correctly and then I get an error. If this is not the way to do it I just don't know how to tackle the structure of the service I'm using. I'm trying…
I think the best setup consists of buttons like Seth said (middle click and right click) and Draster Switcher to enable Maya navigation in Max (pre 2013). Holding the middle/wheel button continuously Max-style is probably the worse thing one can do to one's art had. It's really, really bad. Jonas, don't wait ; After a week…
