Re: Portfolio opinions, am I ready for entry level employment?
I - and I think many people who live with computers :) - browse the web with JS disabled unles its absolutely encessary for a website's apps. To just browse a image gallery I'm not enabling JS or Flash. How do I or anyone browseing your site know your webhost hasn't had a sql injection that let someone post exploits on… -
Re: Zbrush 4 coming august 2009 :)
to quote the zb overview on their site : ' . . . and intuitive workflows. Built with in an elegant interface . . .

Re: what if ... viewport navigation was taken care of for you ? maxscript idea
Okay I think I see where the misunderstanding lies. Sync, I think most users (at least character/prop modellers) use the cam mode where, whatever is selected, actually IS the center of the camera orbit. It's down there in the little icons on the bottom right. A good way to see wether this is enabled or not, is to simply… -
Re: Headus UV layout/Max Bridge
renderhjs i had the same problem so i bought a dongle. It pretty much goes everywhere with me. thanks for the tip on paths. ill change it :) I tried both the unwrap_uvw and paste uvs methods. I gave up on the unwrap_uvw though as it sometimes seemed to refuse to work. It wouldnt let me select and weld points :/ even with… -
Re: 3DS Max 8: "Affect Pivot Only" affects bones, too.
@Vig: Yup, tried both those things, same problem. :< @Eric: I'd recreate the rig, but it'd probably have the same problem, since I made this one, too. :< @CrazyButcher: This solution allows me to align my bones without causing any noticeable deformations, but since the bones are still modified when I realign their pivots,… -
Re: Temporary freeze when using directx shaders
DirectX + Max9 + undo = death A game I worked on a few years ago (using Max9) that had very large, complex character files. Someone, somewhere along the line enabled hardware shading on a couple of materials. It took us forever to figure out why undo was so slow. We assumed the scenes were just too big. And once the files… -
Re: low frame rate in max
Disabling the Material Editor is the obvious one - I got 2-3x framerate boost when playing back anims just by closing it, I think it re-draws scene material previews if it's open, which is hugely slow. Or something. Renderhjs: Are you sure about disable backface culling? Does it do more calculation to work out what's… -
Re: Try it if you dare ! Maya selection issue
pior- I'm curious what workflow you have that is incompatible with nex? are there scripts that don't work with nex enabled? edit: I had a go at this, I wasnt able to reproduce the problem until I zoomed right out and the polygon was pretty small onscreen, then it selected the polys either side instead. I had a look and my… -
Re: Character Texel Size Optimisation Question
I think you have the right idea. Some amount of distortion is inevitable in these areas. One thing you can do is take advantage of pinning vertices (hotkey P). Pinned verts hold their position when you unwrap. Typically use as few as necessary to stay sane. But on a face, for example, starting with what you already have, I… -
SOLVED: ZenTools problem
Hey there guys, I'm watching a tutorial series on hard surface modeling, and trying to install the scripts, I was able to install everything correctly and I was able to launch zentools, but when I try to use it, just like on any hard surface tutorial, I receive the following message I have already downloaded Maya bonus…
