Re: Zbrush camera navigation
It's going to feel quirky and different if you want it to behave like a 3D program. This is because its designed as a painting program that can have more in common with Photoshop or MS Paint than it will a 3D program like Max or Maya. Since you're completely new, I would suggest taking a few minutes to learn the following… -
Re: Riggin in max 9
I feel your pain also. Skin needs a rewrite, preferably by someone who has used it day in and day out for a few months. It works best if you do skin by the book and never screw up... ever. Even then you can't expect it to work like it should. The more you use it the less likely you are to do something it doesn't like.… -
Re: PSN down. lol?
Everyone READ THIS PLEASE. Here's what's going on right now: something with the PS3's internal clock has borked in some pre-slim models. This is not a PSN issue; it has to do with your PS3's clock. This clock is NOT related to the OS clock. It seems to be a leap year bug. Setting your clock ahead will do nothing. All PS3s… -

Breakdown of the AAA pipeline for game-ready realistic hero props
Hello! Some time ago I finished a project and thought I’d make a breakdown of the whole process from start to finish. This is not a detailed tutorial for every step but rather an overview over the process that I hope will help people (especially beginner 3D artists) get a better understanding of how the pipeline works.… -
Re: Max is triangulating model differently when combined??
Triangulating your mesh before you bake is a good idea. Any edge that isn't visible, isn't set in stone and apps take those undefined edges and will interpret those any way they see fit. Most apps will stripe triangles from bottom left corner to upper right. Maya strictly enforces this and doesn't let you "go against the… -
Re: FAQ: How u make dem mats? Hands-on mini-tuts for making materials and texturing
Heya All ! I've got something that has been bugging me for a few days and i can't seem to get it right. It's about a wooden stool, which has a LED light inside of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2iy_kzrYpw&list=UUrskmaWkmAxAaAPeI0OLCvA#t=106 As far as i can tell, it is a wooden structure with some kind of wax / plastic… -
Re: Wrap texture around a helmet (possible with zbrush?)
No, there is no need to modify the UVs - because even if they were seamless there would still be distortion issues when applying a given pattern or texture. The current UVs have clearly been built the way they are because of the thick cloth seems on the model. It's actually very clever because it means that a texture that… -
Re: Adding new ability particles?
Hi guys, I recently downloaded the workshoop tool for DOTA2 to make some particle fx, but I have some issues. First of all I couldn't open any vfx from the editor, this is because the DOTA2 particle editor apparently cannot open .pcf, but I found someone who converted them in .vpcf (I don't know how) and I downloaded the…
