Low poly model resulted in smooth shading not hard.
Hi, so I try modeling the pieces for tabletop sim. The board game is called quadular and there is not a bord existed in the workshop. So why not try make it my own. Well I use 3ds max to model the pieces low poly. I even applied smoothing groups. But after exporting to .obj, all the polygons are smooth instead of hard.… -

Re: SSD?
I agree 250GB is small if its yours ONLY drive, however if you have a secondary data drive its totally fine. In my workstation I have a 250GB SSD for os, apps and working art files, and then 1.6TB of HDD space that I archive stuff to when I'm done working on it. When I had a 120GB ssd is was a bit of a pain, but 250GB is… -
Re: Mudbox painting on surface pro 4
I kinda solved it. I think it was when I was making a new paint layer it was a 8 bit layer, when i did it in a 16 bit layer it was almost none existent. Everyone once in a while it would pop up again but if it painted over it it would go away. When i did 32 bit the same thing as the 16 bit. Its now workable though compared… -
Re: Syringe Kit
Nice renders! If you plan to make the textures grungier when you get to the LP stuff, but some dents/nicks in the metal could be nice (dents coming from the outside for example). If you want a little visual interest maybe include a small piece of paper/note or a old fashion picture to give it some ownership and character.… -
Re: Upgraded memory
OFF-T: The problem is there is a difference between advertised and theory based 'upgrade' versus a more personal performance return. I personally was never able to get Max past 1M in 'workable' conditions, ZB past 6M, nor Mudbox past 8M, even though they showed all this on last generation hardware. ON-T: Depends, if you're… -
Re: 3ds models - some work in external library others don't. What's the difference?
Unfortunately I am stuck with the .3ds format. Min3D is one of the only workable Android libraries I've found for displaying 3D models, and it doesn't handle those other formats mentioned. Eric - thanks for the response! Would it be possible for me to mend the other .3ds files into a similar format as the monser_high? I am… -
Re: Yet even more hand painted textures...
@rdmlegend: aye, a workshop would be very nice. :D @Devin Busha: I did primarily just went to work on the one board, then I decided just looking at the one board for a presentation just wasn't enough, hence the copy and paste ;) Bad discipline yes though... @Zoid: Ah ha, thank you very much! I suppose I've practiced… -
Re: 33 yo. Too late? Best learning path?
Well, I'm in fairly similar situation and been too afraid to make this thread! So thanks for that. I'm 29 and hoping to get a job in 3d after having worked a the last 10 years in various unfulfilling jobs. At the moment I work 25h week to live and try to do 25h a week on 3d, I've played with it on and off in the… -
Re: Staffordshire University - T-rex
Hey man, I had some professionals come into class just yesterday and do a zBrush workshop. One of the things they said was that 80% of the individuals in the field will grab alpha brushes, stamp skin-looking effects over the model and call it quits. Unfortuntaley, that's not how skin works. They said that if you spend an…
