1- never experienced this are you sure you havent got something like "create uvs in new set" tagged 2- yes look in display-polygons-custom poly display, lots of powerfull stuff in there too. 3- you can relax, or smooth using the sculpting tools, which if you want to do it across the whole model select what you want…
In the Unwrap Editor, in options>preferences: check use custom bitmap size and put the right resolution in Render width/height OR uncheck it and select your texture in the listbox at the top of the editor (CheckerPattern by default) Using non square texture is a bit tedious, since projection will always be "squared" The…
I'm evaluating Marmoset toolbag for purchase and I've run into some issues... It seems that the brightness of a directional light doesn't change the appearance in the viewer at all. 0 or 100, it doesn't changel. In the attached image, the brightness it at 4 yet appears dimmer, If I lower it to 0, it still appears the same.…

(Is there a way to hide the mouse cursor while it's hovering over the image?) Also, can anyone suggest a free blog hosts that support javascript? (i was going to use wordpress, but as far…
Tell me if I'm just over thinking this but I was planning on using 3 tiling brick textures, creating the normal maps from these textures and then throwing on some decals to break up the tiling.

I have had no issue getting the two pistons to rotate as the gear retracts, but whenever I try to do the same thing with the arm…
Hi, I'm testing out animation exporting from 3ds max to unity and come across some unexpected results. I've basically got a box which scales in size from 0 to 100 over 20 frames. But when I export it to unity and check the animation preview there is no animation. The weird thing is if i take exactly the same box and switch…
I'm trying to setup my computer to dual boot with WinXP and SLES9. When I reach the installation point where YaST does "Performing Installation: preparing your hard disk," the progress bar reaches 100% but the clock cursor just sits there indefinately as though it is stalled. My partitions look as such: /dev/hda 55.8GB…
Hi, I'm trying to retrieve an angle of a knee bone. So its either 180 degress or less This has been discussed before in the following threads: Here and Here Unfortunately, all those matrix jargon is just way over my head.
