Seahorse
Had fun making this little guy. My general workflow is... • Research • Concept Sculpt (zbrush) • Retopo and Unwrap (3dsMax or Modo) • Project concept sculpt • Cleanup and Refine Sculpt • Polypaint diffuse/albedo • Polypaint masking • Extract Polypaints, Displacment and mesh • Setup beauty shot with 3ds Max & V-Ray •… -
Is it possible to bake Inward Facing AO maps in Xnormal, or maya?
Does anyone know how to make an AO map on a water tight object with Inward facing Normals? http://colinbarrebrisebois.com/category/subsurface-scattering/ The only way I have seen is using 3dsmax, but I'm wonder if there's a way to do it in Xnormal, or maya. Ive tried a lot of different settings and tried looking for ways… -
Travellers room
Everything was rendered in Marmoset Toolbag 3 with realtime GI. I did spend a lot of time in Lighting the scene and thanks to marmoset for this amazing renders! Fog added a great depth to the scene. Candle has SSS material. 3Dsmax for base models-Zbrush for high poly-Substance painter for Texture Baking and texturing… -
Re: maxscript assign array value to property
think you are looking for execute since maxscript will probably try to read d_standard[1] as a property but its really a string. Think there was a getproperty and setproperty functions for maxscript. Been a while. Edit: Heres the documentation for getproperty and setproperty (just search for… -
Re: blender 2.8 vs 3ds max .. critical two issue..
Thanks for the explaination Coven. I will try to use OpenSubDiv from now on. Regarding the edges. It lets me do stuff like retopology and first build the mesh without actually creating faces. Or I want to redirect my edge flow. Or just put in some verts as a guide and later connect them. I have mutliple use cases for it.… -
Re: Driller polypainting drives me crazy
Lol^ I like this Zerg color theory you speak of :p Nice critter- really bizarre. As far as re-topo tools I can`t recommend 3dsmax`s standard "freeform" tools within "graphite modeling tools" feature. If you can get past the clunky interface, learn the shortcuts, you`ll have that thing re-topolagized in under an hour at… -
Re: Max2012 Unwrap UVW scale mode help
I want to scale my unwrap to exactly 2 times in my UVWUnwrap Window. I dont want to scale by hand and use trial and error method. What should I do? I cant find any type-in box in the unwrap window (like the one that can be found by right clicking on the scale button in the main max viewport). I am using 3DSMax 2009.... -
Re: Anyone upgrading to Windows 10?
I installed it on my experimental machine on Sat and it all seems to be working well but I haven't fully production tested it yet. 3dsmax 2014, zBrush, Photoshop CC all appear to work great. I haven't hit any snags, yet. I plan to do all of my daily work on the experimental box this week and if all goes well I'll upgrade… -
Re: Sketchbook: kouotsu
I was also wondering when I was putting the tri count on this pic: Should you count the backs of polys that need to be 2-sided in the tri count? In my clien't engine I have to actually duplicate and flip the faces that need to have backs, but of course that's not necessary in 3dsMax, so I'm not sure which count to put. In… -
Re: Topiary
"Normal Thief" a 3dsmax script and "Slide Normal Thief" MEL for Maya, will help get the shading right on the clumps of planes. Eric Chadwick did a great write up on the wiki about it, lots of good animated examples. http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/VertexNormal#Foliage_Shading Basically you're aligning the normals of the…
