Re: Baking Errors
I believe textools http://www.renderhjs.net/textools/ has a script for setting uv islands to smoothing groups. It looks like you have some other errors here too, that green decal with the wings should not be green, make sure the highpoly source mesh does not have inverted faces. And another bit a little lower on the map… -
Re: vertex colors go rainbow on convert to poly
Noors: I'll try to work something up at home - it's a pretty big problem, I asked the entire art team at work and the only answers I got were "reset xforms" "box trick it" and "I don't know, I just always paint the incorrect verts" FicWill: interesting but that still seems to be an over-complicated alternative to painting… -
Re: Real-Time Plant Growth Workflow - Rigging? Blendshapes?
Wow that sounds like a really neat way of doing it, I'd love to explore that shader workflow. I'll have to boot up Bioshock and give it a look! If we wanted to achieve some of the type of foliage we want, L-systems would certainly be a great way of achieving both variety between plants as well as a lot of controllable… -

Re: Compositing texture maps into one file?
What software are you baking in? You might try baking out with an alpha channel, and no edge padding. Then it's pretty simple to grab the alpha in each one to copy, then shift-paste into your target PSD. IIRC there are a couple small scripts or apps which combine multiple bakes together, using their alphas. Bake Sets in… -
Re: best too to paint over a model?
Hmm, I cant find anything like that on the English version of the site. Though I think the only thing that happens with the integration is a script or plug-in that sends the model the BP3D and back to Max. And that quick walktrough of multi material painting in Mudbox, it is very possible in BP3D as well. In fact..… -
Re: Can someone review my portfolio again?[Target_Renegade]
Target_Renegade> I do not work as a techincal artist. And what cdevens posted seems highly relevant. Job roles in general seem to vary to some amount depending on what company. I think a high simplified way of putting a Techincal Artist would be the person in-between what a programer and an artist would do. Tools, shaders,… -
Re: Biped to Maya naming issue
The rigid naming convention, and bone structure is one of the reasons to avoid biped (for me ). If the fbx importer from Unreal doesnt replace "Bip01FBXASC032Pelvis" with "Bip Pelvis", (like the Max importer does , I believe), then exporting via Max seems to be the best option, since it can be automated with scripts. Using… -
Re: Jurassic World
Precisely, the best sci-fi films succeeded because the suspension of disbelief was in their -ideas-, not in their spectacle. The first Jurassic Park had an amazing script, of course based on Crichton's novel, that had a lot of people believing maybe you could clone dinosaurs... And the VFX team completely sold it. Nowadays… -
