Max 2010, how to create faces correctly?
So I recently switched from Max 8 to Max 2010. I don't know how to ask this so I'll try to explain as best I can... -When you create a face (either in Editable Mesh or Editable poly) your mouse turns into a cross hair. You then select the vertices you wish to compose the face. Now here's the problem; in Max 2010 when ever… -
How do I improve?
I know there are a bunch of previous topics regarding if one should go into schools for 3d related professions, and if it's worth it etc. What I don't see as much of is how to go about learning yourself without school. I've been messing around with 3d software for a while, and though I feel I know a great deal (though not… -

3ds Max Pulldownit - Jittering & Jiggling Pieces
I'm using Pulldownit in 3ds Max and having a lot of issues with the resulting pieces jiggling and jittering all over the place once they collide with other objects. I've tried changing the collision hulls (from mesh to simple capsule) of both the pieces and the objects they're colliding with to no avail. I've reduced the… -
University Project Questionnaire
Hi, I'm a student at Staffordshire University in my 3rd year and doing work on my Final Year Project (FYP). The project is about retro game adaption and it's effects on the character design pipeline. Effectively, I will be choosing a retro game and modelling a current-generation rendition of one of it's characters. Before… -
IN PROGRESS: Recommendations/workflow for AO map creation to use in DDO
Hi Quixel users and everyone else! I wonder if there are any recommendation regarding how an AO map should look like to be optimally used DDO and a workflow how to create those. Currently I'm doing the following: 1. make AO from high to low poly in Blender 2. add details to normal map with NDO 3. a) convert edited normal… -

[Riot Art Contest 2017] Reindeer Soraka
Topic by FirDrawsStuff · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Creative Contest 2017› Riot Creative Contest 2017 - IllustrationI saw how some other people marked the edit dates, so I'll try too - 12/14/2017 I colored some more, and now it's only hair, cane, clothing and some details left. And then after it, I'll start working on background :3 C&C appreciated! So I started working on the face a bit. It might look pretty dumb from close-up, but when… -
Using NormalThief to Weld Branches to Tree Trunks
Okay, so NormalThief is great for changing the normals on our foliage to make trees look more natural. I see that SpeedTree "welds" their branches to the trunks of their trees by making the normals at the base of the branch match up with the normals of the face they're intersecting. I figured I'd give this a shot! Here's… -
Maya to FBX - Annoying random hard edges, yo.
Hey there, I've been exporting meshes from Maya to UDK for a while, and I've noticed weird hard edges relatively often. I've chalked it up to some sort of issue with my normal maps or something- but, I just imported a bumpy plane from Maya to UDK using FBX, and making sure to check "Export Smoothing Groups" and "Import…
