Re: How to go from Triangle, Game-Ready Mesh -> Retopology to Quads -> Same UV Map -> Sculpt?
New problem found. I use Mudbox for sculpting, and the original mesh comes with split vertices around the UV edges. I welded them before putting them into Mudbox, now I need to split them to get back to the original vertex count. Is that possible? Failing that, is there a way to bind vertices in Mudbox so they stick… -
Re: Help me figure out how to texture this 3d tiles system
I read this a couple of times and I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish from a 3D modeling standpoint. So let me try to put it in my own words and tell me if I'm right. You're programming a modular (you're calling them tiles) asset generator, where the program takes meshes and assembles them, then applies a texture… -
Re: A quick Question About 3dsmax Feature!!
Wrong subforum! Anyway, I think you could do the same.. but I don't remember how to connect single vertices. I would do it with edges. I would make a box, Edit Poly, adjust one polygon, remove the rest, and extrude one of its edges, adjusting the vertices to the shape you want. -
Re: [CE3] - ScottHomer's Destruction Dioramas
Really nice way to present a small diorama.The quality as always is high. One thing I noticed is the wood grain running vertical on all the panels. As per your wood panel design and where the seams/joins are I'd expect the horizontal panels to have the grain running horizontally not vertically across all the panel strips. -
Re: (Workaround) [Blender 2.8] How to edit a split vertex normal without affecting others?
OK I am back with a workaround: STEP 7: since we have already split the vertices, we can separate the mesh faces we want to fix, align their vertex normal to face normal, then join them back. Existing normal won't change as Blender know they are different vertices. Not convenient but at least the job is done. -
Re: Vertex paint in Unity
You are confusing vertex paint and texture maps. Vertex colors live inside the vertices. It's part of the model it's self! (cool huh) You can then use a shader that lets you blend textures based on the vertices RGB value. Like this: Or use it to make fakey shadows. Or just use vertex colors instead of textures! bad ass! -
Re: bendy polygon shenanigans
Since you're using 3dsmax, if your model is an Editable Poly object, just select two vertices of the offending polygon, and click Connect. That should turn your poly (what looks like a 5-sided face) into a triangle and a quad, and it will either make it convex or concave depending on which vertices you connect with a new… -
Re: Modeling a net??
I would model the net like working with tiling textures. Just model a little symmetrical piece of the net, duplicate this piece in a row (in 3D Max array tool), attach them and weld the vertices. Duplicate the rows and attach them and weld the vertices. In the end you should get a nice clean mesh ready for simulation. -
Re: [MAYA 2016] Unlock / Lock normals changes normals? why? is there a fix?
I noticed some problems with this too - model was displayed incorrectly, I had to "reset" it by hitting 3 then 1. But I don't think you need to lock the normals to scale your vertices without affecting the shading - it's affected more by re-triangulation, which changes in Maya as the model has its vertices moved, so maybe… -
Re: Blending geometry intersections?
Thanks for the answers! :) I will get a higher quality shot as soon as possible, though I don't think there's a lot more to be seen than what's on the screenshot. Might it help to "snap" the vertices on the intersection onto each other? Right now the branch border is pushed kind of far into the trunk. Maybe if I would snap…
