Re: more xnormal woes!
Some things: 1. Avoid to use the 3ds2max OBJ exporter. It does not export well the vertex normals. If you are forced to use it sure you enable the "smooth normals" xNormal option n case you have problems. If you use ZBrush or Silo sure you set the correct options to export the model in standard OpenGL/Maya/XSI right-handed… -
Re: and another website...
Pretty good site overall, but I can offer you a couple of observations right off the bat. Please keep in mind that I'm pretty 'art-school' about my critiques, so I'm trying to offer constructive tips, not hurt your feelings.

Re: uv s and normal maps
Ruz: I'm fairly sure (just looked a some things i normal mapped with rotated uvs, and noticed this in the past) that no matter the orientation of the uvs: "up" in the green channel faces towards the top of the image, "down" faces the bottom; and the same with the red channel for left and right. This is because normal maps… -

Re: Roko and Lilo – Life as a Bird (3D Animation Short)
I'm not sure what your goal is here with these videos? I watched a couple of them out of curiosity and your description seems to be doing a lot of the heavy lifting by telling me who these characters are. They didn't have any story or dialogue (despite the characters mouths opening and closing). The animation reads as… -
Re: Building modular buildings and houses questions
