[ZBrush] How to cut a clean straight edge?
Hey, just a quick question. How do I create a clean straight edge onlong the base of this model. When I use the SHIFT+CTRL green drag box and then delete the topology, the mesh is all jagged (pic1) which when the hole is closed causes weird stuff to happen lol (pic 2). Any help on how to just get a clean straight edge? -
Re: Shield of the Undevout (Baldur's Gate fan art)
Nice job! End result has really nice texturing work. The wireframe could use a significant amount of optimization I think. Usually for a game asset like this, you would want to have the edge flow match the design details, rather than being an evenly distributed quad grid. Curious how low you could go, and still preserve… -
Re: avoiding sharp edges in game model
I think he's saying how even though the metal edge of the heel cutout only has one edge, it's still soft - it's because of normal map baking - the high poly model used as source for the bake was soft and this information is transferred, even though the low poly only has an edge there. -
Re: [3D] How to unwrap spherical Visor so texture doesn't distort?
I'd probably try to drastically reduce the polycount of that element (reproject it later if necessary) so you can manipulate it with greater ease to get a bit more even texture flow, or use soft selections and pinning along with relaxing (or combine both approaches) to get the best possible outcome, but there will be some… -
3ds Max: edge extrude with local pivot
I'm trying to extrude edge using Shift+Drag with a local coordinate reference system, but for some reason it doesn't work. I keep dragging, but the extruded edge doesn't move in needed direction. Is there something I do wrong or there's another way to do that? I made a video of it… -
Re: What's the best way to keep a crisp edge, but retain the 'roundness' of a circle...
per, question: in the raised area w/ the hardening edges, how come you're making those outer quads square-like, instead of just leaving them looking like triangles? In other words, in the image below, why are the yellow verts not positioned farther away from each another, e.g. where the blue dots indicate? Are you trying… -
Modo Transform (edge/face) constraints?
Hi all, I can't seem to figure out whether or not Modo supports edge/face constraints like Maya and Max have. Here's an example in Maya. People mentioned using the slide tool but even that seems to not have an "absolute" setting like Maya or Max does. https://i.gyazo.com/1111e5ba3229c186c9ee4db7d14a115f.gif… -
Tightness of edge for good baking result?
Ok so I'm working on a fresh version of a previous model I tried yesterday and messed up pretty horribly. Thinking my low poly and high poly geometry is wonky. Anyways, how tight should my edges be on my highpoly? I've seen some examples with pretty curvy edges, and others not so much. Is there an ideal shape or angle?… -
Dark lines around edges of bake in substance painter
Anyone know why I'm getting these dark lines along the edges of my objects after I bake them in substance painter? Heres an image of what im talking about.... Is this because the edges are to hard? Should I bevel them or something or is it an issue of resolution on the UV Maps? -
Re: architectural hard edges in mudbox
Give your max model hard edges (smoothing groups) where you want the hard edges to be. Apply turbosmooth on that object (value 3 or so) and tick 'use smoothing groups' or whatever its called Export this to Mud. Now the mesh will be very dense even at level 0. Once you subdivide once more in mud you will keep all the main…
