Re: Free Maya/max cgfx/fx Shader
hello Alert I remember having some similar problems a whiiiile back, but it was something about some node that wouldn't 'unconnect''. It seems to try to connect the w component to something. It can't since it's just a xyz coordinates, but :position semantics often assume a float4 so there might be a conflict there. Have… -
Re: Squaring up Scan data
Your scan data isn't symmetrical so you can just centre the pivot to the model from the hierarchy tab in the command panel and zero out the xyz to world space. -
Re: Is It Not Politically Correct to Have an Opinion on Software?
I'd say the issue is less about being politically correct and more about creating productive discussion. Granted there's exceptions AKA PC PENIS TANK OOO RAHH But back on track. The main issue I gather is that in the past there have been many XYZ program vs ABC threads popup and they usually end in fan boy flame wars… -
Re: Odd 3DSMax Biped Issue
I think this is your problem. All rotation even world rotation is translated to local rotation. The more your biped moves out of alignment with the world the worse that problem will get. It is also easier to position the pieces based on their local rotation. For example -Y Local on bicep will always rise the arm regardless… -
Re: And now Pandemic Studios goes down!!
Will Wright and a lot of other guys who owned companies on his list. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_acquisitions_by_Electronic_Arts. These are just the major acquisitions there are a lot of small fish studios that made bank when things where booming but the buy out wasn't always news worthy. I'm sure there is a list… -
Re: The order 1886 style bust progress (UE4)
Decided to do the albedo textures with texturing XYZ map projecting and cleaning them up in Mari. This is still very early on the texture but this is what I got so far it still needs a lot of work. For the armor I will do the textures in substance painter and designer. I'm thinking about trying to render in ue4 instead of… -
Re: Low Poly (ish?) need help coming up with Cloth
That's probably something you want to look into, it's a very common technique, especially in game development. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYWj3zGXSjM -
Re: Kart racing game
As you might have noticed in our last video, we have started putting particles in our game. For the non-developers out there, particles are how we create effects such as explosions, weather, dust or any situation where we need to animate some kind of graphical effect using many graphics moving together in a certain way. We… -
Re: Multiple detail maps in one material. Possible?
@Butthair Shader languages don't have any data types above a float4. RGBA and XYZW are interchangeable. @gem2492 You could blend in many different ways, from vertex color to texture map to coordinate based in a shader. You could do this in any software that allows you to transfer a shader to your GPU, so Max, Maya, Unreal,… -
Re: Beginner("Bad")_Medium_Good_3D
I would argue its a typical rookie mistake, not to spend enough time on the lower and medium detail levels and just slapping on details. Those sculpts will not look better with microdetail slapped on top, not even if its the great XYZ pores. The biggest issue here, is like others said, grounded in the lack of anatomical…
