Re: Blender Python 2.79: Writing Vertex Indices From Vertex Groups?
I managed to get this. It appears to be working properly. I added arrays for bone and vertex IDs, and appended values to them. Here's my edited code: # Armature Test import bpy path = 'C:\\Users\\USER\\Desktop\\User\\Models\\LowPoly\\Model.txt' outfile = open(path, 'w') ob = bpy.context.object bone_ids = [] vert_ids = []… -
Re: MaterialX and Substance
Some infos from Siggraph. MaterialX support: MaterialX is a material description format developed by our friends at ILM. It allows artists at Disney to create materials that can then be used in a vast array of platforms across many usages: in movies, TV shows, games, and VR experiences, even manufacturing for toys and… -
Re: Material ID order from Maya?
Hi, I got the list of faces and materials per face in order with this code: import maya.cmds as cmds #Obj to be iterated obj = cmds.ls("nameoftheobject") #Get number of faces total allFaces = cmds.polyEvaluate(objs,f=True) for faces in obj: print faces for face in range(allFaces): print face iteFace =… -
Re: Maya mel script - move selected vertices to 0 on x axis
I don't get any errors when i do as your example of objects having the same name in the separate groups. The only change that could be done is to use "$getObjectName" instead of "$getObjectName[0]" so that not only the first object is affected but all in the array or which objects are highlighted...which may or may not be… -
Re: scifi things a day
The millenium falcon and the jump gate are cool but a little hard to read in my opinion. The rest of your stuff is awesome. How do you begin to work on designs like this? While creating the initial design do you block out the major shapes? Then do you make a library of cool shaped pieces and then start mashing them… -
Re: The correct method to combine/mix/overlay normal maps?
Yeah, it's a really simple Python script that's been built into a standalone executable. Does the same thing the Unity version does but faster (as I can do the entire pixel array in one go using numpy). There's no visual component to it - I wrote it in a rush for a specific task - but it combines them fast enough that you… -
Re: Has anyone replaced their modeling software with ZBrush completely?
ZRemesher outputs are really OK for ~5000 poly (or higher) organics. I used it for all low-polys in my current personal project (alien tripod). But still, I wanted to make some optimizations in mesh in 3DS Max. For specific hard surface models, you'd be better with splines, arrays. Also - things like pivots, child-parent… -
Re: Portal Update
Here we go again. There was a hint in the ARG that something interesting might happen during Gabe Newell's Pioneer Award ceremony at GDC. During his speech, the projector popped up with a standard BSOD which then changed to this: For those who don't feel inclined to squint it says Amusing in itself, but of course people… -
Re: Looking for 3D modeler to create a 3D dragon
You definitely are in the right place to ask for 3d models, though we need more details on the requirements. I am a professional 3d artist specializing in 3d modeling, rendering , and animation ,with a lot of experience in a wide array of programs(3ds max, maya, blender). Given the details, i can make you any kind of… -
Re: UVs: More Maps VS. Bigger Maps?
We've had better results with using multiple smaller maps instead of giant maps like 4k. Giant textures are bad for streaming and often take up more space in the pool than they should. Non-square textures (like 2048x512) are fragmenting the streaming pool and should be avoided. I think UDIM style texturing will be a good…
