Re: Reinventing the wheel
we're talking about an 8 sided cylinder(or less), which you're most likely going to be using for rivets and bolts and other tiny stuff that wont have a noticeable impact on the silhouette unless, like you said, its a really low poly asset. I'm not against using it, it's just that your first example is really specific... if… -
Re: things you miss when you never read the manual ...
[ QUOTE ] dont know if this is just for max 8 and up but, to remove an edge loop as well as it's verts, from the edge sub-object level select your loop, then hold ctl and press remove. Or you can use this chunky maxscript and hotkey it. ( $.EditablePoly.ConvertSelection #Edge #Vertex subobjectLevel = 2 macros.run "Editable… -
Re: How to display the "correct" vertcount?
ok... lets try another way... I am playing to create a directX exporter under Maya and I think I got new information. About directX in the export file, vertex count seems to change depending of the Uvs. For exemple to build a geometry WITHOUT uvs, you will only need to list vertex and then to list the triangle with the… -
Re: Do you really want to work in 3D indutry
One thing I'm curious about, is related to what you have said there, Ace. When you read stories of these people working crazy 14 hour days for weeks on end, are they really 'working' for those hours, or are they scratching their arse for 7 cumulative hours and working for the other 7? I remember hearing a little quote from… -

[MAYA] Change attribute values with an expression

old application versions on current windows?
hi, for a project starting soon, the team would like to stick with a rather old version of 3ds max: 2011. it'll run on new hardware though that by default ships with windows 8.x. however it is an option to obtain windows 7, if required for compatibility. and that's the question, really. autodesk's website references 2013… -
Re: Freelance Rates and Budgeting Tool
Hey this is awesome to see. Both an excellent tool and great that you're giving it away for free. It's rather disappointing reading some of the comments in this thread. But just an aside, whether you're quoting a day rate, a monthly rate, or a per-asset rate, you need to know your hourly rate. Hourly * 8 = day rate Hourly… -
Re: New comp build, need your advice :)
I would highly reccommend a ATI card, they are just a lot more cost effective right now Have a 770 myself and its good, but the AMD are just cheaper and have a bunch more power for now. Also you need a CPU with 8 threads. Dont get an i5. Get a i7 or a AMD with 8 cores. Everything that takes time needs those. Baking,…
