Halves like, one contains animations for the torso and other file has the lower half? Or left side & right side? Or are there shared bones moving in both files? Have you tried File > Save/Load Animations yet? More than likely it will work if the bones from the first file aren't moving in the second and vice versa. Make…
I know this is from a post from 2014, but every time I see that link shared, I can't help but cringe a little. It's a very clever technique to photosource a very very rough approximation of normal information, but it's not "accurate" since it contains shadow information. The shading will always be bizarre on anything that…
Yeah, I think I've reached the end of my usefulness here. I tend to avoid MEL like the plague, and I don't have a copy of Maya at home, so I wouldn't be able to tinker with this. The only thing that I can offer is you should be using something like an else if or elif (not sure what the syntax is in MEL) to make sure that…
Today I've finished my version of Meat Hook. In my work I've used Normal Map for some guidelines on details, but the final Hook contains only a Diffuse Texture. I did not bake any others maps like AO etc. for a paint practice purposes and to feel that hand painting mood. Soft used: 3ds max, Zbrush, Substance Painter,…

It's becaus I batch rendered the animation in two different parts at two different times. Probaby this didn't work well with the…
Any organization the mormons give money to is morally reprehensible any entrenched societal ideals in america are the product of barely contained hatred and a directed attempt to make innocent people suffer Oxy, private clubs are churches. The debate about government money is a valid one, but it is not as cut and dry as…
I would go with a labeled CD containing MOV and WMV versions of your reel, and an offline version of your site, plus resume in DOC or PDF. No need to bother with sending out books imo, as this could get very expensive for you, and these things usually get discarded. I personally keep a printed portfolio that I bring with…
I've got one folder for reference/inspiration, and then another for actual textures and photosource material. Reference is organised by theme (ie. Trees, Architecture, World Details, Furniture) and the Textures folder is sorted by surface type much like Rynos. In each one I have a subfolder called "Mine" containing any…
it seems all lightmaps are even density like texturing is usually done. but isnt lighting mostly boring on the floors and happen on the walls and complex shapes so in theory baking a hires lightmap and then shrinking the uv isles according to the statistical contrast of their containing pixels (the higher the contrast the…
