Re: Frostsword for Oblivion
One thing jumps out at me. Is it a club or a sword? It has no edge to it. I would recomend goung for a nice clean edge to set off the detail nicely. It looks a bit bussy as it is. A really quick paint over. -
Re: Post Apoc Chick
I think you could use some more hard edges in you model,currently it has this molded look,not ragged and bulky as it should be. bootstraps and metal clasps should definitelty have some hard edges. -
Re: How do I remove these seems in my normal map?
Perfectly normal and VERY usefull aswell, if you look around the edges you will see it in most normal maps :) Here you have some info on it: http://wiki.polycount.com/EdgePadding?action=show&redirect=Edge+Padding -
Re: Split poly tool settings in Maya
You can change the wireframe colors in the settings. You can change the edge display settings in the Custom Polygon Display Options. You can only set it to change how soft/hard edges are displayed. Not their colors. -
Re: [WIP] A scope a day keeps the optometrist away.
Oh i will at least a polygon bevel, want to try and make it as low poly as i can while keeping as much of the detail of course. would subdividing a edge by 3 then after baking deleting the other 2 keeping the seam edge fix that ? -
Re: Normals issue?
Alec already mentioned what the problem is, thin triangles. Try and delete the edges and cut them like I show here. Bartalon is also right about adding hard edges, which will help other parts looking flat. -
Re: Normal Map Seams between UV Shells
Bleed the edges for sure! A lot of artefacts at edges is caused from not bleed pixels around islands. Use "Solidify C" from flaming pearls. Free photoshop plugin package. There are A and B presets but for me best works C preset. -
Re: 3D Max Cut Tool Problem
When using cut tool, the mouse pointer will change depending on which sub object are you hovering over (whether vert/ edge/ face), so make sure the mouse pointer is edge before you click to start cut. -
Re: M207 .307 Futuristic Pistol
Why? Soft can be a bad choice of word because it implies blobby, really "wider edges" would be better, but currently his edge width is so tight that everything looks unnaturally sharp even when viewed up close. -
Re: How can I bridge the top of a cylinder in 3DSMax?
Here's an extra technique that produces nice quads on certain amounts of segments that wasn't mentioned yet; 1) use the Border selection mode to select the open edge 2) deselect two opposing edges 3) hit the "Bridge" tool
