Re: Tips on modeling a house?
Quick Trim/timbers: In edit poly select an edge (or a few) click "create shape". This makes a spline, apply the sweep modifier to the spline and turn on generate mapping coordinates. Using a spline you draw out the parameter of your building in the top viewport then apply sweep, algin the pivot so the shape sits at the… -
Re: Xoliul's 3DS Max and Maya Viewport Shader
bringing this one back from the dead with a question. I recently switched to Windows 7 and max 2010 64bit, when applying this shader to more than 10 objects it immediately crashes. At first I was applying it to the entire selection of objects, so it would just crash immediately. Then I tried applying it to one object at a… -
Surface Distortion in Vertex Joining
Hi, On my model, I apply chamfer to the edges to soften it. In the upper part of the chamfer, the vertexes remain idle. When I connect the idle vertexes to another vertex, the surface is distorted as in the picture. This problem occurs not only in this model but also in many other models when I apply the same method. How… -
Getting into environmental modeling. Questions!
Hey guys, going straight to the point. When i create a material, lets say metal with some rust on it, if I apply that in different objects, does it stretch it, looking the same? Lets say I have metal houses, metal doors and stuff, if I apply the same material with all with the rust on it, will everything look the same? Do… -
zbrush - bypass alpha for RGB painting
I'm playing around with creating custom brush alphas and textures for zbrush sculpting. I've made a pair of textures for a brush...a heightmap/alpha and a diffuse texture. I can assign them to a brush and sculpt/polypaint using drag rectangle strokes, but there is a funky issue. The alpha is applied to the brush texture,… -
[modo] set smoothing group script
I'm pretty new to scripting in modo and new to python (maxscript user) but I've been using more modo in my workflow lately so I decided to make this script and hopefully some more to come. Its a script to quickly apply smoothing groups to selected polys and is greatly needed in modo for game artists Usage: @setSG.py - no… -
Re: Black shading on the edge seams in Substance Painter
Hi guys, late to the party but this thread is still being looked at and is still useful. I want to note than none of the aforementioned solutions worked for me however I went back into Blender, applied a weighted normal modifier (with kept sharps applied) and then made sure to double check my unwrap (making sure that where… -
Re: Photoshop tips
I believe it's not just the center, but it saves the origin placement. When you want to copy just a part of another picture to your workfile then it's hard to place it at the correct position. With holding shift it will be placed at the same position as it's in the origin file. Another small Feature (that most might know)… -
Re: Weekly Substance Challenge - Week 1
Regarding this thread. This is about procedural texturing with Substance Designer. I'm not sure how to answer your question about the way "we" apply the textures. If you want to use something from Substance, you can export maps from it and apply them as any regular maps on a model. You can also export the Substances and… -
Re: 3DS MAX 2013 help needed. Unwrap UVW modifier isn't working properly.
I've seen that happen if you don't exit the lower modifiers sub-object level (vert, poly edge ect...) before applying the UVW modifier. Whatever you have selected in sub-object mode will be transfered up the stack. so make sure you exit sub-object level before applying modifiers. Also if you need to make geometry changes,…
