A while back I had a problem with a keyboard shortcut not working, it was fixed by making sure the the keyboard shortcut button was pressed. This issue is not being solved by that. The issue: When I add an edit poly modifier on to an object I can no longer press "E" to rotate the object. So far if I want to rotate the…
Working on this a little this morning. Just a couple of questions to all of you. As of right now the buttons are all separate objects. I was wondering what would be the best way to make the little bevels for the buttons to sit in. Should I just duplicate the object and Boolean out the duplicated object? Also as of right…
I hope I am descriibing this right, but here it goes. Say I have an object casting an ambient shadow. (A giant rock casting a shadow from the sun). The shadow of the rock is rather soft and thsu not as dark as it might be if it were a small object. I place a smaller object in that soft shadow, and it is casting its own…
I am currently building a maxScript which allows people to store object into a geometry editor which allows them to again create them as if they were creating a simple primitive like a sphere with a touch of a button. The script includes image gallery for viewing objects they want to create and a category system which…
Hello! I have created this slingshot: It basically consists of the base object which is the wood, a separate object which is the "Rubber band", and a third object which is the pad that is supposed to be pulled. The slingshot is to be used in a game, from this view: I am fairly inexperienced with 3DS MAX, but I know how to…

Basically what I want is this (very basic diagram :P ) - This img Basically, I want a box for the root_bone to be inserted into by…
I really don't fully understand what you're trying to do with the arms and guns either, but you can filter out limbs in the motion mixer. You can also use biped layers to reposition and reanimate pieces. You can also load .bip animations into layers so you could use mixer to filter in/out the arms, save out .bip animations…
I had trouble with this kind of stuff not long ago as well. The thing is, it only seems complicated because you haven't done it yet. Once you make a quick plan and just start testing things out, it becomes quite clear. So, you can export each thing as a separate object, and bake it. Then you get your baked maps. Then you…

For the "how big your object should be" question it's easy, just make a simple box height 180cm (average normal people height) as a scale reference, then just scale up/ down depending your need based on that scale reference object. For the map size 512x512 is consider huge for object that size, you might want to reduce it…
