Re: Autodesk 3ds Max Maxscript: Return vertex index of an object touching another object?
Thank you for the ideas, monster. I can't believe I didn't think about distance sooner. It's more likely I'll go with the first option, since I'm not using high poly models. I will try those and see which works best. Edit: Here is what I have now, but I'm still unsure how to compare the distances properly. theSpheres =… -
Re: An Environment Artist reading list (actual books (made from trees))
Amazing thread. I recommend Digital Lighting and Rendering by Jeremy Birn http://www.amazon.in/Digital-Lighting-Rendering-Voices-Matter/dp/0321928989 What I like about books is that they go very deep into the fundamentals of creating art. Nowadays, I learn mostly from online videos because they're free; however, I found… -
Re: Modo scripts
This is a monster tool as it enables you to access ALL of Seneca Menard's scripts from one button. Big thanks to Etereas AKA Cristobal Vila for this :thumbup: Firstly you will need Seneca's Scripts. These are the most up to date versions. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1615250/senemodo.zip Then you need Etereas script tool.… -
Re: 3ds max 2013 viewport texture quality
Thanks monster! It worked when I ran under Administrator! the radio buttons are now set and don't change when I restart. :) The reference images are still blurry though when I set the driver to Direct 3D, Nitrous is still not working for me (the images appear blurred and skewed for some reason when I use Nitrous.) Why… -
Re: Pisciasa of the deep Darkness
Okie, Here we go . :D just finished the linart for my concept art. 2 days of work so far. I gotta work a little bit on the color tone before moving on modeling her and the duo fishes. Pisciasa is one of my many OC in my own concept series where mutant human with superpower co-exist with bio mech monster. I designed her… -
Re: Killer Croc Concept wip: C&C welcomed
The second version, with the vest is probably the most interesting one. He almost has a southern biker feel which I think fits with the idea of Killer Croc better than a topless gangster. You could probably play this up even further by matching his tattoos a little better to the clothing and story. The text on his chest… -
Re: 3D Studio Max 'Convert To Deformable GPoly' crash
It doesn't crash for me 3dsmax2014-sp5 but I do get some wildly unpredictable results when I use it as intended (for skinned objects that won't be edited). My issues are just with what I see in the viewport, it loses textures and displays black textures, but it renders fine. It's not a huge boost to viewport speed so I… -
Re: Simple AO tip for skin
Yeah that is all I ask, a feel there is a big misconception with character artists and AO, that stems from poor AO content, or not knowing exactly what to do with the ao. So I have a request here, since I'm not much of a char artist so I dont have a lot of content sitting here, is someone willing to donate a high/low full… -
Re: [MAXScript] View Stats
@Swordslayer - still not work man, it even gives an error and crashed the script. What does it do actually? using #whole seems like fine to me. Also I notice that when I have modifier (example; turbosmooth) ontop of my Editable Poly object, the verts and edges count always return 0 eventhough I'm on the base… -
Re: Spirals & style
I've never really thought about that, either. The only time I can recall seeing spirals in a cartoony work was Wind Waker's smoke poofs (and in turn, everything where someone tries to copy that style). I did use a spiral design myself, many years ago when I was drawing creatures for a card game I was making but never…
