Re: Maya Skin Weight Extract Like 3Ds Max
You're a brave person making edits like that and relying on an ancient tool that will probably stop working in a release or two. Storing the skin data in channels is a dicey operation, especially if you plan to heavily edit the mesh. I wouldn't be surprised if it explodes on you at some point in the future. Usually you use… -
Re: Krita Masterthread: 4.0 is out!
@PolyHertz That main developer (Boudewijn) said, they have <200.000 euro a year with the grant, I don't know if that means close to that or way less. If it's the first, it seems like a lot of money for a project of quite limited scope compared to Blender. I guess there are other priorities though and making it a texturing… -
Re: PPK Project and High Poly Bake issues
It's a matter of where you want to render it really or what engine you're going to use it show your stuff, it's basically an issue of Tangents (the math which tells how the Normal Map will be processed and shown) so you will avoid seeing any nasty seams. A quick idea on why people do the splitting thing. As for the… -
Re: [UDK] the 'Road Home'
This is basically what I was referring to. I'm at home on break without UDK or 3ds Max for the next week, but I'll try to explain it the best I can. First, you'll want to build your entire foliage mesh in 3ds Max, and have all your alpha plane placement finalized. Once you have that done, download this script called… -
Re: KRISS Vector
I almost have the low poly version of my gun done. Along the way I experienced some problems with baking maps from xNormal. This was a problem that I've never seen before... After a lot of trail and error and reading countless post on different forums I finally solved the problem. It seems that most of the information was… -
Re: Animate a Book - HOW TO ?
Opps, sorry I missed this when you replied and it slipped off my radar. If you haven't figured it out maybe this will get you rolling again. Your post is a little cryptic too... "move key to frame, have trouble, stuff screwing up, I'm pissed" It's a bit of a mystery as to what's actually wrong. Can you post the files? or… -
Re: Another normal map issues thread - issues at seams - Maya LT
This has helped me some. Somehow I missed it until now. http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Normal_Map_Technical_Detail Alright, I know a bit more about map baking now, but now I'm entirely confused about how to set up a new workflow. I've got all these different programs -- Maya LT, Zbrush, Xnormal, Substance Painter -- but… -
Re: What software can I use for a (very) short film ?
That's good news, yay! Thanks One last question, I imagine for the little animation I have to do, I could animate it inside maya and then export it to unreal ? Would creating my scene in maya with animation, assets, character, and then exporting it all inside unreal, plugging the texture, creating light and camera would… -
Re: Mudbox Subdivision Problem(Fbx file included)
i forgot to mention you need to convert to editable poly before this export process. if its editable mesh, the fbx will include the triangulation. there is also a preset dialogue at the top of the exporter for mud box. if your really having problems just use that or an obj, or give me one sec and ill just upload the mudbox… -
Re: Creating Cages in Max
You can add a Turn to poly modifier on top of your low poly, limit to triangles, export as low, then add Projection, make your cage, export the cage. IF you need to make changes, you still have the original polygon-only in the stack, just have to push the cage again if changes are too big.
