how to render isolines in max
Anyone know a good way of rendering the isoline type display that is an option under meshsmooth in Max 8? I want some nice renders of meshsmoothed objects with the isoline display overlayed. Only way I can see of getting the isolines out of Max is to screengrabs which isn't really suitable for what I need it for. cheers… -
Re: Making Quake 3 Models with 3D Studio Max?
I found a link where you can download the Exportmd3.dle file for 3D Studio Max.

I know this is a little off the game art topic, But does anyone know the procedure for using the camera tracker utility in 3DS max? I fire that up, and when I try to click on the tracker in the video window, it crashes max out. Thanks if anyone has any suggestions. -
Max hotkeys
Hey I have been having a few problems getting some of my hotkeys set within max. My main one is Bridge, it is a tool that I would love to utilize more in my workflow, but only have succesfully got a hotkey set to just have it become selected.

Re: Using an .FX shader, would like to render it (scanline, 3DS Max)
or just take a screenshot from the viewport? i did most of my portfolio that way since it proved to be very timeconsuming to try and replicate shader-results with an offline renderer when all the maps were finetuned to work with the shader in the first place. max's confusing mateditor didn't help either. ;) -
Particle fun in Max
I'm trying to blow up a pumpkin in Max. I'm using a PArray to break up the mesh into fragments, but I want to get the pieces to fly towards the camera and basically go splat as it hits the camera. Right now I'm using deflectors and gravity to control where the pieces go. Is there a better way of doing it? I know in Real… -

3ds max rounding errors?
Hi guys, i'm having the following issue. I was asked to export an existing 3D scenario from 3ds max into the Unreal engine. The original scenario had a scaling factor (system unit) of 1 unit = 1 centimeter. The modell appeared to be too big after the export into the UDK editor. That's why I changed the scaling factor to… -
Max cut tool quirk
Occasionally when i'm doing cuts in 3ds max, it will only let me cut from one vertex to another and not vice versa. It seems to be very picky regarding which vertex I initiate the cut from. Is there any reason for this or is it just a bug in max? Does it happen in other modeling programs? -
Re: Transfer Map Problem
Is there equivalent of Reset X-From in Maya? If so use it. In 3ds Max there is STL Check (used mostly for rapid prototyping) to help as well as xView which can help you determine a lot of errors quickly (open edges, flipped faces etc). EDIT: try to use automatic unwrap and render if it helps. EDIT 2: is that 3rd one normal…
