Re: UI discussion: Windows 8 starting to look like the new 3dsMax direction
Well, on some days things like the new Outlook/Word/wordpad "improved" UIs can really make me sad - especially when I have no other alternative to use. Of course, their article "makes sense" - but it also filled with what I like to call "bad good ideas". Yeah, right ? That seems to make sense, and whoever wrote that down… -
Re: object space normal maps in 3DS max 2009
So animating an object with object space is pretty much the same as is with tanget space (leaving out the shader complexity ofcourse). Wonder why this misconception is so widespread (must be like the "triangles screw everythign up in zbrush" issue lagging on), people must have just heard about it and never actually tried… -
Re: tutorial: fixing mirrored normal map seams
OK warby I found something similar to what you're saying. I think you're using unsigned normal maps, which for your engine means a 128 color is considered a non-bent normal (pointing straight up on X/red). Here's a quote from one of our graphics programmers: [ QUOTE ] Signed normal maps are useful for helping to hide… -
Re: monitor calibration settings?
I figured this out recently for our studio, wrote up the process. Works great for us... ============ 1. Don't do this until your monitor(s) have been on for at least 1 hour. 2. Reset the display driver gamma control. Display Properties > Settings > Advanced > GeForce tab > Color Correction > Restore Defaults. Repeat for… -
Re: 3DS Max -- How to weight paint specific geometry?
I think it does answer the question... don't use the Paint Weights tool, instead adjust weights on selected vertices. If the Weight Tool doesn't provide enough control, there are various scripts & plugins around, like Weight Pro. -
Re: RizomUV - Islands are packing at 45 degree angles?
Its a great piece of kit! changing orientation doesn't seam to do anything. Even changing between horizontal and vertical orientation :( I think it's a groups thing? If I remove all my island groups then it packs normally. -
Re: Maya 2017 UVing
If those are all equal in the 3D space, try with "unfold along V". I don't remember if Maya 2017 exposes that command already or not. If not, you need to open the unfold legacy options and select the option "unfold constraint: vertical". -
Re: [MaxScript] Sub-object pivot
I love you...also, have been getting fearians issues, but not too much. It feels like the movement after the snap of the vertice is about 1.25 faster then my mouse. Still, I can manage, thanks again! -
Re: Vis in desert
I've gotta do it.. A whale is not a fish. Also, whales dont have vertical tail fins. Although I do agree, Brian. For its size, the speed looks a little off. But the animation is beautifully done. Good job! -
Re: ZBRUSH - Framed plane does not go to edges of canvas
My whole canvas wasn't visible! I couldn't quite fit 1024 on screen vertically with my docked brushes etc! Silly thing is that my other monitor is 2560x1600 and fit's it easily! Thanks guys! Love polycount!
