So I'm baking normals and AO maps for a character I did in ZBrush and some of the parts were sculpted on meshes that are like a thin shell and when I put them in 3dsmax, outside and inside intersect and look really nasty: What I'd like to know is if there anyway I can tell rays to ignore the inside faces when projecting…
Thank you, Blaisoid! I'm actually really lazy too lol. Sometimes when I'm supposed to be drawing I just drift off into the vast confines of the internet and before I know it a whole hour will be gone. Ah well. Anyways, more stuff! Finally caught up to the present. First pics are some perspective stuff I did while studying…
Like said, it depends, especially for the chamfers. Do you need cuts for normal maps because of hard edges? What's more visible? How much distortion and size scale changes are you willing to deal with? Personally, I'd probably do something like this: "a" can be straightened out without any distortion, the inner and outer…

I am using turbosmooth and I know is destructive when used on uvmapped items , but I read somewhere that opensubd did preserve uvs , I tried and it doesn't may be I don't remember well ? or May be I am missing something ? Or may be there is another way to uvmap a low poly version of a mesh before smoothing? Or I just have…
Hi, I thought it was a nice idea to add some additional detail in mudbox on my low poly mesh. It really worked out fine, beside that i'm getting some weird lines (probably on the edges of my low poly). I can smooth that out, but just not getting them would be a lot nicer. Could this be solved ?
