Re: if british beer is so good, where can I get it?
[ QUOTE ] Bridgeport is an old standby of mine, but it's actually a little subdued for my tastes if I'm really in the mood for some teeth-kicking hoppiness. Nice warm weather beer, though. Also, have you tried McMennamin's Hammerhead? It's quite nice, and a bit similar to Mac N Jack's. [/ QUOTE ] Yea, Hammerhead is… -
Re: 3dsMax Normal Projection Trick?
actually, oniram showed me a cooltrick by using scanline with light tracer(default settings). under the render setup you set filter to catmul-rom and enable global supersampling with hammersley at 1.0 quality. then set you apply a white material to the high poly and boom, eliminates the wierd AO errors with floating… -

Re: Textures - Specular Level vs Glossiness - What What?
Vailias: Thanks for that easy to read breakdown, this makes a whole lot more sense now to me. I think I'll make two techniques in the shader, one is a Lambert Blinn as you said to keep default, and another one is...well, I can't decided what compliments Oren Nayer the best so far. chronic: Har har, nice one, since when is… -

God the first time I shot a dude in between the eyes with a Hammerhead, the pin to the wall.... but they're… -
Re: Jagged Normal maps - video card issue?
If you're in Max and using the scanline renderer, try using Hammersly anti-aliasing at .5 or 1.0, or if you're using Mental Ray, try setting the anti-aliasing it to 1 and 4, or 4 and 16, etc. instead of the default 1/4 and 1/4 (IIRC). Also, if you downscale the normal map, perhaps run it through Nvidia filter to normalize… -
Re: Low quality normalmaps.. What am i missing?
cant be a hardware problem.. rendering dosent use hardware.. just your processor.. try turning on a supersampler like hammerslay.. and also put a plane behind it like xenobond/Kman said..you might also want to turn padding off.. 0 pixels -
Re: Is RTT in Max 2011 broken?
I haven't had any problems with RTT in max 2011. I use the hammersley filter for supersampling tho. -
Re: Baking animation frames using particles in Max
ran a quick search and found few things .. maybe you want to give them a try. cheers! =================================================================== If it's a very important explosion you could write (or maybe find) a maxscript that skins (rigid) each expoded mesh chunk to a bone and then you could use an explosion…
