Maya Vertex Chameleon
Hi polycounters :) http://www.renderheads.com/portfolio/VertexChameleon/ That's where you'll see videos and be able to download the beta of this new vertex colour plugin I've been making for Maya. The idea with this tool is to make much more powerful vertex colour tools than what Maya currently has. We made these tools… -
[Maya 2009] X-Ray mode with vertex color?
Already some years I work with vertex color under Maya and it will create shit render with the x-ray mode in the viewport. I would like to know if there is a solution about it or I have to create a patch detecting if there is vertex color and I switch on the vertex color transparency. Let me know.... Thanks! :) -
Vertex paint issue in UDK
Hi guys. So I am trying to set up vertex painting in UDK for my wall texture. I made a simple planar mesh in Maya and subdivided it few times but for some reason when I import it in UDK vertex paint doesnt work. I dont think there is a problem in material setup because when I apply the texture on the meshes that come along… -
Baking out vertex colors to a color ID map
Dear god, I am going insane. I have tried so many different ways to bake out a color ID map from this high poly. Maya's baking has never once produced a flawless bake of any sort of map, so I have taken everything into Xnormal, where baking is a pleasure. ;) I have painted my high poly with vertex colors, and exported them… -
Standalone Vertex Paint App?
General shoutout here to anyone who might know of a standalone vertex painter. I've seen a lot of third party UV unwrap packages and I'm wondering if there's something out there similar but just is a vertex painting app? I've been trying tirelessly trying to get some decent material blending in the old idtech 4 (DooM3)… -
FBX and vertex normals of a skinned mesh
There is an annoying problem I'm having with exporting a skinned mesh from maya as a fbx file. Any vertex normal that has been set manually is ignored when the fbx file is imported back into maya, max, or udk. This only happens when the mesh is skinned. To illustrate the problem I've created a 20 sided cylinder without any… -
Re: Maya to Max FBX Vertex Colour
Ok, I've narrowed it down to just being a bug. A really big bug. To recap, I'm trying to move a scene from Maya 2011, to Max 2009. I installed Max 2011 to also test, and there were some differences no matter what version I set the FBX to export. Going Maya 2011 to Max 2011, it worked fine. I had to go into my Object… -
baking bounced light in max (vertex)
been doing a bit of experimenting in max, baking vertex lighting into objects, now simple radiosity gives nice results but im not getting enough light bleed, so i would like to add a bounce or two so that occluded underisdes get at least a touch of light, this has to be ready to convert so cannot be a render option must be… -
Vertex Painting from 3ds to UDK
Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew how to use the vertex painting that you put on your assets in 3DS Max when youve imported them into UDK. I've tried using .ASE or .FBX as exporter and have Checked the box which asks to use the imported models Vertex Painting when importing. I'm thinking I need to set up a material… -
Alternative to Vertex Painting
I'm a huge fan of vertex painting but sometimes I wish I had more verts and adding them sometimes seems like a waste especially on larger surfaces. So I thought about using mesh paint instead and wanted to share this in case it might help someone. Here is my test, I ended up using the same setup as a typical 'advance…
