Re: Problem with baking Normal Maps - Direction seems to switch on every UV-Shell
We're only seeing a cropped view of the full texture, and there is padding. That's the orange outline. It could perhaps use more, though. I don't know what you're getting at with curves, and Max can display normal maps just fine if you load the texture with the right gamma, though it will not be the correct tangent basis… -
Re: Hardsurface artists: The world famous Maya vs 3ds max conflict in a diffrent way...
awesome, that is essentially one of the suggestions i made. @GeeDave if people want to compare tools and how long everybody tool is compared to the other guys tool then start a new thread on modeling tools and post some detailed pictures and info on your tool! lol seriously tho, that would be more informative to the… -
Re: Miauu 3ds Max Workplane Script (Modo Workplane in Max!)
Yeah its super handy to have. Also, remember the "autogrid" check box above your creation tools/Object type, and you pretty much have the modo set up. Now if I could just get a screen space move like modo and maya, (meaning you dont have to click on those super small xyz handles to move your object) that would be a total… -
Re: Importing .SMD for animation
I have a partial rig im working with ATM, and copying the XYZ values from the bones of the animation to the controls of the rig doesn't seem to work too well. The controls aren't on a 1:1 basis with the bones and the idle pose ends up looking pretty funky. My last option is to just do my best imitating the idle pose… -

Re: bungie: 'Secondhand sales are evil'
In the game shops around my area, the old gems are really rare. They actively discourage older games by not taking them in if they're older then a year. Customer: I'll take a copy of XYZ game there (points that the new game behind the counter) Clerk: Oh hey it says here we have a used copy for $5 less do yo want that… -
Re: Am I wasting my time learning Blender?
Short answer: Yes, it will hurt you to stick with a nitch program and not learn any of the mainstream 3D apps. Long answer:I think the question is, why not learn them all and really expand your chances of finding a job? Beyond functionality you have to think about pipeline. - Is XYZ company going to toss your resume when… -
Re: Max 7: Projection (Normal Map) Shows Wireframe
I always thought W was a positional unit, rather than a directional one. In my mind's eye I imagine UVW to be like XYZ, three axes to place UVW coords into. I can really see it when messing with a 3d texture like a procedural, where moving through W is basically moving on a vector perpendicular to UV. So as I understand… -
Re: Anatomy Sculpt - Feedback appreciated
It might be that you need to make some kind of suggestion, the femur bone is a boney landmark that protrudes just beneath the illiac crest, there is mostly just connective tissue that runs over it, it's one of the harder things to do with the male figure (in my opinion), to get it to look right that is. Also you're right,… -
Re: 3ds max 2010 extrude grouping
Yeah thats a good idea. You could also flatten out each of the sides with the make planar xyz buttons.
