Re: Is adding supporting loops to control shading behaviour/normal map gradients a good practice?
Gradients can cause mipping issues but with the modern averaged mikkt method gradients are expected. Adding supporting edges to control shading is a common method so really it's the usual case of running tests and seeing what works. I've yet to encounter any mipping errors from the averaged mikkt method and I've been using… -
Re: 3ds Max, Shader FX, wind effect?
Hmm, still not working for me. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. :( Node turns red, but no errors appear. I get an error message only when I try to plug the original Vertex Position node back into the Default input for AifBempty (the cursor in this screenshot is about to do just that). Which is very weird, since nothing… -

Can't find missing packages in UDK, missing nodes and other tickytackies

Painter crashed - "selected project isn't valid!"
Painter 2 crashed my whole computer (got a grey screen) when I was working. I had just saved and started doing another task within the program and that's when it crashed. Got a grey screen and it automatically restarted my computer. Once back in Windows 7, I loaded up Painter again, tried to load my file and it gave me an… -
Re: [MaxScript] Selecting UVs by proximity
So I didn't get the same error you have above. MaxScript usually tells you the line that it errored on, that's a good place to start. The error I see is that you are trying to select an array of Point3 values (resultsuvs). The select commands only work on bitArrays. There are several workflow improvements you can make to… -
Re: [Finished] - Butterfly Knight

Re: Sketchbook: Melomad
First, about creating the upper eyelid crease, I agree it's a pain and I don't know how to do it in zbrush. I'd probably try to create two different objects (tools?) for the tarsal plates part of the eyelids and only combine them with the rest of the face later when the fat pads and eyebrows are 100% done, so they don't…
