Re: Mel Scripting
file -q -sceneName That will give you the current project the file is stored in. My plan would be to take that, remove the / pop off the last index of the array and construct back again. Then add $layer back and append the extensions as a string. Probably a better way to do this but dont have maya right now. Always sucked… -
Re: Global variable
Hey ! You could also use a Blueprint Actor, which you would name Database or A_Database (A stand for "Actor"). You put all the global variables you need in this actor variable, make them available to all blueprints, and then use a "GetAllActorOfClass", and use a "Get" array. From there, drag the "Get" pin and call each of… -
Re: Backup Solutions
You might want to look into setting up a RAID1, RAID01 or RAID10 array of drives. Most Motherboards have up to 6 SATA slots for setting up various configurations of RAID. You would probably interested in any of the RAID mirroring options. It's like an instant back up of all things instead of relaying on a schedule or you… -
Re: Conform spline line over a model 3dsmax
Ok I did by using snap to faces when using the spline tool , but I am not finding a way to work well with the clone array , the item I did gets not bended on the spline and doesn't follows the orientation wished, how can I do to actually replicate this tutorial on max? I tried with spacing tool but with no success.… -
Re: Prop and Texture Atlas question
20 years ago we did those big atlases and prioritized texel size to fit a group of objects in one texture page to save on draw calls and sampling based on how hierarchical (grouped) lods are build in a scene. Now it should be texture array techniques in an engine and outside of an artist care but you have to ask your… -
Re: [Mixamo Contest] The Last Knight
I made a little alteration, I put the hood on him. and I think that's gonna save me time on the modeling and texture That's it for now Thanks for the tips Di$array But I think that I will gonna leave the concept this way for now. I have a clear vision of how that model is going to be. I need to make that simple, because I… -
Re: Meshmixer
These are both really cool, definitely "neat," they're just so messy... I can see it being useful for generating reference for proportion and such, but not actual content generation at the moment... really neat, though. I wonder if meshmixer results are sculptable at all? could be cool to have a Spore-like array of parts,… -
Re: An Investigation into Modular Environment (Victorian) - Dissertation progress thread
About the drawcalls: It seems a bit high for just one building. That's because all the pieces as individually placed static meshes. I got around that using blueprint to spawn an array of hierarchical instanced meshes. You can then set it so you can adjust the pieces placement and spacing in parameters. This way, it only… -
Re: FJTools - ZBrush plugin
Thanks for the feedback :) ! Currently I am quite busy with work, due to our upcoming release. I will hopefully get back to the plugin in the new year though. @CreativeLeo I think a similar Plugin already exists called Positioner. Check it out :) ! You also might want to take a look into the array function of ZBrush, which… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge March 2014 (17)
In case anyone hasn't already seen this shot, this is really close to where the concept was drawn. Normally in Max, I'd Rail Clone this thing heavily. Does UDK do any sort of array along a spline? I thought I saw a post a while back about someone doing roads in a similar fashion. Or would it just be best to make a few…
