World displacement is just called displacement now. It might not show up default depending on what version you are one, might need to enable a cvar, it was basically removed from view for a while when they first rolled out nanite.
Projection baking didn't really get popular til post 2000 iirc. The first version of Max to support it was I think 5.1. I wasn't using Maya much at the time but it's had some pretty advanced features for a lot longer than people realise so I wouldn't be surprised if it got there first.
I would like do a morph animation from a flat version of my mesh to the regular 3d version in 3dsmax. The flat version i would like to get from my uvw, so i need to convert the uvw to a mesh somehow. The morphing also needs to take the uvws isles into account then. Very important for morphing is the vertex order, so the…
Btw, a small correction : when I said (the last and most widespread version of what westerners call the AK-47), I meant its the most widespread version for the milled receiver variant (that was produced up until 1959). Otherwise, the most widespread version of the 7,62x39 caliber AK is incontestably the AKM. :)Thats…
The Pro license will still set you back a few thousand dollars. (if you want to get the portable licenses as well) And the Pro version is more feature-complete, offering advanced rendering and simulation systems that don't exist in the free version. There are some certain effects and tricks that just wouldn't be possible…
I have a set of uv alignment scripts you can assign to hotkeys here: http://jhaywood.com/maxScripts.htm Chuggnut's Turbo Unwrap plugin was made for Max 6 and so won't work with 9 or above. If anyone here can contact him, maybe try and get him to do a recompile for the newer Max versions. And the older script version of his…
Yeah the skylight/HDRI strength needs to be relative to the skylight strength, I've heard a ~4:1 ratio is normally suggested, but probably depends a lot on the particular HDRI being used. Using real world values can sometimes cause artifacts with other features like Lumen having black spots or a grid artifact, I think this…
What you people need to realize though is that while this isn't the first time molyneux has failed to deliver his ideas (which is totally understandable) it's the first time he has failed to uphold promises on what NOT to do. He overly focused on the mobile version of godus from the get go even though promising that the pc…
You can still use mods from wherever you want. Mine are probably half manually installed from Nexus, and half Steam. The only negative consequence I've seen is that a lot of Steam modders took theirs down, so they're no longer subscribed. The mod files are still on my HD however, they just wont auto-update and I had to…
Ok so Im finally going to pick up both the male and female versions, only Im not sure which ones to get. Im obviously not going to pick up the medical version but versions 1 & 2 are close enough in price and it seems the only difference is the way they've been painted. Would the neutral grey versions be better for looking…
