Re: Sketchbook: zenarion
Long time, no post. Took up Maya again, revived some old projects. Normalmap and AO bake, both made in Maya. Now going to start on the Diffuse. Never applied to ArenaNet, because I'm chicken. Modeled this one in 3dsmax, to try and teach myself the modeling tools again. Did the UV map in Maya. Texture painted almost… -
Re: "Low Tech" Scifi Rifle
4k is what I would expect for a 'large' gun in a first person shooter. As for tri count, I would expect this to be in the 25-60k triangle range if it was for a first person game in this new generation. As for your bake errors. I would assume that you used 'mirror' inside of 3dsmax? If you do that you have to reset the… -
Re: Problems with Animation in 3DS.
Can't really suggest any tips for an animation that isn't posted. Quicktime .mov format would be preferable. Or even better the 3dsmax file. Taking wild stabs in the dark: - It might be missing squash and stretch? - The timing sounds like its an issue you might have evenly spaced out you're keys when the timing dictates… -
Re: [UE4] [WIP] FF7 Cloud Strife
I have been going through the learn tab, and content examples the past week and researching methods for creating hair, I am currently just trying to hand place them, but they feel flat, have harsh transitions and its cumbersome. Does anyone have any tips? I am using 3dsmax. I'm wondering how to achieve soft looking hair… -
Re: Sketchbook: DLarsson
Modelled the tube, and I know the concepts abit rough, will need to skillup on the dexterity of my fingers and intelligence of my brain to concept better :P Heres the HP of what I'd like to call a eco-tube. EDIT: Above is the same picture, the one on the left is uploaded with dropbox and previewed on the forum in browser,… -
Re: UV Mapping Issue - Mapping a 2048 by 1024 sheet
just work on a 1:1 ratio and revert back once done. Deep down at its core at least 3dsmax still assumes that the base of every UV is a square or cube (UVW), it doesn't really translate to non 1:1 ratios and thats why most tools just fail with it. Then again a non square map usually is not really that GPU or render… -
Re: Smoothing group problem?
Are you using Maya? This has happened to me several times when I've edited a FBX-file rather than the original maya file. To avoid this I always make the desired changes in the maya file and then re-export the fbx-file. If you want to fix the fbx-file you can go to Normals->Unlock normals and then redo the smoothing and… -
Re: Storing UVW info problem - 3DS Max
make sure you are working on the same UV channel as you checker map has been assigned to. When you switch in 3dsMax to a different UV channel (default is #1) it asks you to reset what you have right now, and you need to say yes otherwise you can't edit or work in that channel. Its very confusing and stupid but thats how… -
Re: Ddo or Substance designer
I'm almost to the point now where i'm ready to just throw photoshop away, and there are some tools in development which will finally let me do that. so i can't fucking wait. next up is 3dsmax, i'm switching to either blender or modo soon and i doubt i'll look back. tired of paying too much money to companies who do fuck… -
Re: 3ds max 2012 running slow while doing simple operations
System specs? Scene specs? Lots of separate objects with low poly counts or one giant object with a lot of polys? Crazy complex materials? Are you using Slate or the regular material editor? Do you have a lot of materials sitting around in the material editor(s)? Is the texture resolution in the viewport cranked up pretty…
