Re: Modo - Copy subd edge weights to new weight map?
Just tried to script it. The issue is that regular weight maps are vertex maps, and the subdivision weight map is an edge map. So I can query the values from the subdiv weight map, and technically apply them to another weight map but it won't take because the weight map wants them applied to vertices, not edges.… -
Re: Sci-fi environment.
Hi Diego and Romegar, @Diego, well, my normal map on it is very detailed, I used several different things: Zbrush for low frequency and medium, and then added a high frequency pass from photos. What I dont link on it is the outcome in general, so I will try and revisit the shader. I also dont like the seam I did.. I would… -
Re: Ancient Stone Blocks Wall - need advices
Kuki: Cheers for clarification and posting these :) That's the very same technique I've been using. Only one thing bothers me; your low has 2:1 ratio (width:height) but your UV's space is fully filled. Unless your using rectangular maps you will have twice as many vertical pixels - I do think however, that you simply… -
Re: 2 new base meshes to download
1) Relaxing the quad dispersion of the mesh overall Eveb out/avergae the vertices. 2) Fix the anatomical proportions of the silhouette of each base model. This is the primary issue from what I see. It doesn't have to be perfect, but with the way it looks right now, the proportions of each model are way off. Both sets of… -
Re: Matts Big Improvement Push
Hey. This crit may sound a bit harsh but if you're serious about this improvement thread you need to go back and re-do your model. There are a few obvious spots where it doesn't match up at all. I think with an environment it's not that big of a deal, but when you're working on such a finely detailed/small prop, I think… -
Re: Maya duplicate special black faces
If you want to display normals for a specific object only, you can use Display > Polygons > Face Normals or Vertex Normals If you want all future meshes to display your normals, you'll want to go to Window > Settings/Preferences > Preferences, go to Polygons category on the left, and check the Normals box in either the… -

Re: [Portfolio] - Brad Myers, 3d Artist
Yes, I agree, one long list of full images is the most elegant solution. edit: cje, he has a thumbnail gallery. The link with the arrow up top points to it. Although, I must say there are too many images per project. Try to use the width of the page and to limit your shots to only the best. If an employer doesn't like one… -
Re: Hello all
I think right now, the buildings are generally quite thin and tall. For guidance, I'm looking at the 6 windows in the 2nd building from the left. They have (according to the width of the door) at least 20cms apart. About that. In the ref, there is a larger space there, at least 80cms. I'm using that for scale. Also, the…
