Hey PC! I am having a problem with max not baking out the top like.. 10th of my normal map. Here are some screenshots I've re-done the cage, made sure the UVs are in the 0-1 space, and made sure its lined up correctly in PS. I've never encountered this before, so I am at a loss! Any ideas what it could be? Thanks!
Just got the demo and ordered the full version. I must say, for less than $100 it's got most of the functionality of Photoshop at a small fraction of the cost. Plus you can customize your keyboard!

Here are my 1st thoughts about what to do with the complications of this particular object, it doesn't look too "expensive", so I'd say get another one and "shave it till you get to a decent amount of fuzz" of if its possible zero fuzz. Then…
I really like the bottom left picture and the bottom middle, but did you brighten the bottom middle in photoshop? The quality of the screenshot looks really poor. It is great with the uneven entrance and statue against a yellow sky, a very powerful composition. I think the scene on the bottom right would be much more…
Hey Giles, you may want to hold up really quick as you seem to be taking a step backwards.
