My learning process has been a long chain of reality checks. I don't feel that you were destroying my work. I feel that you were helping me to realize that there is still work to be done. I have no desire to go back and work on those old pieces. I have learned what I can from them and intend to move on to new grounds. I…
That is not a bug per se... It is a performance preference. doubleclick the lasso selection tool to bring up it's toolbox options. ( choose between the default fast option or the slower accurate option ) The default behavior of the lasso assumes that it is chosen to carefully pick out tricky vertex selections which can…
Hello! I've encountered the same issue and have been able to solve it. Here's what I did: * Switch your Display Driver to 'Legacy Direct 3D' (as suggested by PolyHertz earlier in this thread) Customize > Preferences > Viewports > Choose Driver... > Legacy Direct 3D * Restart 3dsmax so that the new driver is used. * Update…
Hey Brian thx for the tips you are definitivly right about the time. Will keep that in mind This time I used the basic material which definitivly feels a lott better. if you have any other materials you could recommend feel free to. Today's sculpt I mainly had problems with the face. In the end I ended spending less time…
It's the Sensable stuff from a few years back. Geomagic acquired Sensable and renamed the software to Freeform. 3D Systems then acquired Geomagic. I was given the chance to try one out. The feedback is really nice but the software isn't that great compared to other 3d packages. A wacom (or similar) tablet and Zbrush or…
Just want to interject with this: an exploration based game does NOT have to be open-world. Journey is very much about exploration (and wonder about new places) but it is strongly linear. It does not have to be a purely spatial thing either, I think. Exploring different crafting possibilities in MineCraft, or alternate…
It doesn't crash for me 3dsmax2014-sp5 but I do get some wildly unpredictable results when I use it as intended (for skinned objects that won't be edited). My issues are just with what I see in the viewport, it loses textures and displays black textures, but it renders fine. It's not a huge boost to viewport speed so I…
sadly i don't know spit about max script (maya guy). so no working code solution from me. -1 is a special case which gives the inverse. @shawnolson so i took a look at that pdf and i'm going to have to say its crap for learning simple matrix algebra in order to understand 3d matrix transforms. its intended for math majors…
But it did take take 5 years of polish iteration and rework which still has a time and money cost to achieve the level of polish on display. Initial RnD from a tech standpoint to get everything up and running (usable but not feature complete) can happen very fast and the art teams probably started at roughly the same time…
Thanks everyone for your input. I already have a second monitor 1080p that I use with my laptop atm. I'll look into on of the korean ones. A few questions. Zac looking at your build, you didn't include a cooler, is that intended? I added a sound card too (or is this not needed?), on the low end. I swapped the 256 SSD with…
