Re: party wagon
hehe, thanks for the praise i spent 2 hours hunting down reference of the VW bus, and created it first. then i added turtles specific details, and scaled it a bit. i started texturing it. pizza table unfolded. closeup of the controls. the rear of the computers. in case something go wrong, Don can open up the left door and… -
The best tool for a fast uv mapping
so ive been using 3ds max for quite some time now..for lowpoly stuff but recently i started to make over 4k poly models and uv maping and unwraping over 4k models is not so fun..so my question is..what tool should i use for a better and fast uv map? mudbox zbrush 3d coat 3d unfold others?(wich ones) -
On surface modeling (3Ds Max)
Tried search: nothing found. Is there any good solution to create new geometry based on reference mesh? For example if you have a cylinder and you want to model something to it's surface - how do i do that? I could just move verts a lot or unfold the mesh and later fold it back but that's not what i want. I want just that… -
Re: Is there any easy way to straighten UVs in Maya?
Why not just do a cylindrical unwrap to begin with, pin the central faces, then unfold? Or just do a slight manual scale of the outer bevelled edge. I'd be interested to know if the max version of the tool does anything different/better when fed the same UVs. Really fighting the urge to ramble about how spoilt the young… -
Re: Best method of UVW unwrapping Pipes/Tubes?
My hero! I did it slightly differently. Planar Map on the z-axis, Selected Edge Loop and then unfolded strip from loop. Basically gave me a night flat unwrap and seems to work really well! Either way, I wouldn't of done it with your advice! Much appreciated - you've no idea how long I've been sat here racking my brain -
Re: Maya - quick UV problem
My UV editor has a "Tear off faces" -tool, along with lots of other features. http://www.creativecrash.com/maya/downloads/scripts-plugins/texturing/c/nightshade-uv-editor You select your faces, click a button and those faces are "torn off" and converted to a UV shell selection. Then hit the unfold button, select the shell… -
Question about Maya and UV maps?
Still learning Maya at the moment. I got a question about UV mapping. I unwrapped this chair I'm working on; I used the unfold option, sew and stitch etc. Now, when I try to move the object, it starts going through these loading bars in the lower left hand corner (see image): What's going on here? It's like it's baking all… -
Paper World animation
https://vimeo.com/164412661 This is a stylised paper world animation showing a concrete mixer traveling through the unfolding world it helped to create. Produced using 3dsmax and Vray. Animated using many offset keys, path constraints , multiple bend modifiers, slices and visibility tracks. Please share, enjoy and ask… -
3ds max - point to point selection ?
Hey Is there a way to make a point to point selection aka shortest path between two points or edges in max(script) ? My mesh is triangulated so loop tools wont work. I need something like the edge tool shortest path of unfold 3d, if you are familiar with it. Thanks ! edit: i can do it in the unwrap modifier in max 2012 but… -
Re: UVW Unwrap Questions
flatten mapping tends to create a lot of unecessary UV islands. It also assumes that curved surfaces are planar which causes these unecessary splits. I have seen people get a decent result from using flatten mapping and then stitching pieces back together. However that's the slow way to do it in my opinion. I prefer unfold…
