Re: [UE4] Basement Workshop WIP
Yeah you need to break that join of wall to floor up a bit, adding some dirt and grime should help, with the stairs I can see both peoples point of view, I think maybe a couple of vertical beams at the back is what's needed, and some more texture on the bricks, they seem overly uniform right now. Good work on the lighting… -
Re: Softimage select UV seams issues
It does that when you have triangles near the seams, or very very few verts. Basically contour selects everything, shrinks the selection once, and then inverts the selection for the result. So if there's not enough vertices to support that one shrink selection command then it will unselect everything, which will leave you… -
Re: Crossbow WIP
The wood grain on the front part should be going long ways.. if im not mistaken, they just layer wood strips and then bend them and tie the string on, so the wood grain would be going horizontal and not vertical. could be wrong though! *Edit* I thought the cloth on the front was wood in the first person view.. so the grain… -
Re: How do you work with UVs that are wider then they are tall? (Like 512x1024)
While I'm not sure about Max-specific tools, in other programs you could just UV like normal in the 1:1 space (same ratio/etc as normal), and move other faces outside as if you were working on an imaginary 2:1 texture. Once you're all done, select every island and scale them in half horizontally or vertically as needed to… -
Re: TopoRelax Released
I don't use 3DSMax but this tool looks amazing. I guess it's much about perserving the volume as it is to have evenly spaced vertices. And I simply don't know any other thing that does exactly that (do you?) Today I was having a problem relaxing something like in '1', but could only get '2', when what I wanted is '3' Does… -
Re: Van Hauss Atelier
The remake looks a lot better already! I would suggest using the vertical channel from normal map for baked lighting and applying a top-down gradient to the weapon overall. You could also lighten up the sharp part of the blade to show that it is shiny-and-sharpened and is used for cutting opponents down. Also try to not… -
Re: Making Train station chair?!
You mean, packing the tiled mesh texture and the tube-arms texture together into a single atlas texture? Do-able, and gives better texture resolution, at the cost of more vertices and more UV work. If so, that's what I meant by more complicated. Sounds to me like this might be difficult for the OP. The other drawback with… -
Re: Maya's "Select by element" equivalent in max ?
This isn't always true, collapsing an Unwrap UVW modifier will only convert your selected Faces to the Editable Poly selection, but for some stupid reason it does not work with Edges and Vertices. This is what the original post is asking for I think? As MoP said, in Maya, UVs being just an extra Component type (Vertex,… -
Re: UV Mapping Issue - Mapping a 2048 by 1024 sheet
You could do it like this: - unwrap UVs in only half of the usual, square 0 to 1 space; - on top of your UVW unwrap modifier, add a UVW Xform modifier. Set V tiling (or U, depending on whether you used a horizontal or vertical half) to 2; - collapse stack; - as Sean said, set your non-square custom dimensions in the Custom… -
Re: 3d Studio Max - Symmetry Tools not working for outer edges?
I don't know, maybe the reference mesh isnt perfectly symmetrical ? Since you don't have much points, you could just 2.5d snap or copy paste positions manually. Else, you could try that, tho it works the same way. http://www.rpmanager.com/plugins/Transmographier.htm or http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/morphix to…
