Normal Map questions
Hello everyone, as some of you may know I am pretty new to game modeling and I am currently starting to explore normal mapping in both theory and practice. As for theorie I read stuff on numerous forums, websites, wikis and so on. So I am not fully "Normal Map 101", but some questions I just can't answer myself or I simply… -
Re: Cloning in 3d Studio max
Yea, they changed that in 2011, it's annoying. There were a few tweaks to the 3dsmax.ini file that you can make, but they only effect new objects not cloned objects. http://www.the-area.com/forum/autodesk-3ds-max/autodesk-3ds-max--3ds-max-design-2011/odd-new-renaming-feature-the-extra-zero/page-last/ -

3ds Max - How to do a Low-poly ivy growing animation for Augmented reality
Hi all, I want to create a low-poly ivy animation, where the ivy/vines grow against a buildings facade. I know of the Ivy generator and Grow FX which can create these animations, but they are too dense in geometry for exporting for use in an Augmented Reality app. I may use Ivy generator for a PNG sequence but on top of… -
Is there a feature like zbrush Zgrab in 3ds max?
Hi guy's, I am not new to 3ds max but is there a similar feature to grab the zdepth from a 3d object to use as displacement? I often use rtt in Max but the heightmap even with correct elevation setup in projection do not yield the correct result, it's flat without any relief. Maybe there is a script but so far Googling it… -
3DS Max 2016, Keyboard Input Intermittent
Hi everyone, I've been experiencing a problem with 3DS Max 2016, and I can't find any info on it. Max likes to ignore keyboard input sometimes. Sometimes it works well, but sometimes it stops.

3Ds max to Modo key presets ?
Hi, so i'm a 3ds max user and i'm looking to add Modo to my workflow since it's faster to model in and texturing features. I want to have almost the same hot keys for Modo as in 3ds max. In modo i went into the Input editor and the only way i see changing the hot keys is trough changing the codes in the editor. I can't… -

Setting hotkeys with 3Ds Max
Recently I came into a little bit of cash and decided to update some of my old equipment. My purchase you might ask? The fine Logitech MAX Revolution mouse. It's comfortable, it's fun, and has lots of potential for hotkeys and the like. Problem is, I'm not certain how to set them in Max. I tried searching for some threads…
