Re: Partial transparent geo in Maya????
Pretty much what CheeseOnToast said. Also you can enable/disable poly/object transparency sorting in the modeling panel. It's iffy as to whether or not it works, for me it usually does the sorting backwards, which isn't really helpful. Unless you need it, break the transparency connection in the material. It will render… -
Re: Zbrush decimated mesh > Max issues
I reinstalled the newest decimation master. Apparently I didn't take care of this when I upgraded. Either way I am getting better results. I'll post back if I continue to have issues. But it seams at this point that reinstalling decimation master and making sure I don't have symmetry enabled on my subtool helped out quite… -
Re: WXS-07 'Depopulator'
Some more SP screengrabs: So by now I'm sure you can see the benefit of creating/using smart materials. Think of texturing an entire game like this, ensuring consistency across all assets with the same material theme. And also the ability to change the colour scheme/dirt/grime/scratches very quickly by just tweaking or… -
Re: Rope in zbrush
Merge visible and run a dynamesh/remesh so that you get a single surface, then append it back as a subtool; the inserted rope (as a polygroup) can be extracted afterwards and the dynameshed base can be deleted. With stroke:bend enabled, you can edit the curve afterwards to adjust the rope. Once the mesh has been accepted,… -
Re: Other software that imports polypaint data?
Oh, you want to bake them, well other then 3DC and xNormal, I don't know how you would be able to bake V-Colors without jumping through hoops in other apps. In the case of Max, you need to put up the Vexter Modifier, enable the material to support Vertex, and bake it out to another mesh, and it still might give issues. -
Re: Maya Arnold 'Use Derivatives' Question
Is that from Arnold? (it's not an option on a vanilla bump2d) This was the first hit on google for me. "Enables the use of derivative normal maps. If you disable 'Use Derivatives' when using tangent-space normal mapping, the bump shader uses the tangent and bitangent data stored on the mesh. Otherwise (by default), the… -
Re: Epic Games Store - A game changer?
@OP, your posted metrics are way off by far as opposed too OEM sourced data: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_(software) ...No! ...No! ...in a business sense, not disruptively which is what matters when revenue streams are a primary consideration for developers adopting monetisation strategies. So IMHO Steam is a… -
Re: max 8 emissive maps
ok so I click on the self-illuminating slot then click on my texture (bitmap) and then once in in there under "output" I click "enable color map" Or no? EDIT:: Im retarded, I got it, dont listen to me, thanks you really helped me out!! now if I wanna increase the distance of my illumination how do I go about that? -
Re: How should I resolve this geometry?
Also, while not providing enough segments for that performation too display as expected once sub-d is enabled, shading artifacts are likely to occur because it's algorithum can only perform predictably upon what one happens to dish up. A good rule of thumb is firstly figure out how many cylinder control loops will support… -
Video Driver crashes/freezes when using DX12 + Retracing
I have enables DX12 + Retracing in the editor. Then restarted the Unreal editor, and it keeps freezing my system because of the video drivers crash. (I thought I would try retracing even though I do not have an RTX card, but it was supposed to also work on a 1080TI). How can I disable these settings in the .ini files so I…
