Re: 3ds Max: Custom button layout in toolbars
Adobe recently released a 64bit beta version of the Flash Player for Windows (a week ago or so). I was stuck because 3dsMax would only let me embed a 64 bit activeX or 64 bit IE browser window with 64 bit plugin of flash plugin. Once that situation sorts out a bit on adobe's side I might get back to it. Nysuatro worked on… -
Re: productivity time sink & barricades
Vig, re #4, maybe you could set a policy where everyone sets their machines into render nodes when they leave at night. A bit more work since you have to manage the changes since each node of your render farm is being messed with every day. But there's a lot of processing power just idling around. We did that at Mondo when… -
Re: Need Help Critting these texture sheets (56K warn)
As MoP said, those UV layouts are atrocious. The textures are pretty good, but lack a lot of color. If you actually ever held a gun, you can see that there's a plethora of color in there. From blue and red, to green and yellow. Gunmetal is very colorful, yet yours is quite mono. The highlights on some of the weapons look a… -
Re: Age Old Question
Why didn't you overclock the 9800Pro to XT speeds like so many do? Easy with an Arctic Cooler. I have never had driver issues. Are you hardcore gamer types actually using Catalyst? I had more driver problems with Nvidia. It's really a never ending debate, but I hate reading from so many calling ATI crap because of one… -

Re: splitting off model bits without seams: maya 8.5
Well as Cheese said, this SHOULD be something handled by the programmers... Pose/morph targets should only store vertex information for vertices that change position. Try to press them a bit more or maybe even postpone a solution... pipeline for something like this is going to be a bitch, likely... Anyway, in 3dsMax, you… -
Re: can't get normal to show in viewer...
Make sure your viewport is running in the highest DirectX mode - go to Customize -> Preferences -> Viewports tab, then look at the Configure/Change Display Driver info near the bottom - if it says OpenGL, then change it to DirectX 9 if possible, otherwise DX 8.1. If your graphics card is getting old, it might not be… -
Re: Q3 Q's?
1. You do not have to use a biped. The default Quake3 engine uses vertex deformation only for it's models, so you can use whatever you like to rig them in 3dsmax, the bones or biped won't be exported, just the animated mesh. 2. Again in the default Q3 engine, you will have to split player models up into the… -
Lowpoly Retopo und Baking in Substance Painter
Baking is one of my biggest problems; I still struggle with it. I am doing a hardsurface 'character' for the first time and I sculpted the Highpoly in ZBrush and made the retopo in 3DsMax The edges in my normal and ao are not very clean and I feel like that is not the bake, but hte lowpoly? I am baking in Substance Painter… -
[Blender/Max/Unity]How to re-order skeleton bone hierarchy?
Hello, I am having troubles with replacing a skinned mesh with another mesh. To give more detail; SteamVR in Unity uses a skinned glove mesh for hand controllers(image below), and I want to replace it with human hands. I have imported the glove model from SteamVR into 3dsmax and Blender, and removed the mesh and applied my…
