[3DSmax] Texture border is transparent, why?
Hi everyone! There's an issue I get everytime I add an Alpha Map to my textures. Look at this image... This is a simple lowpoly model, I just began to texture it.

3DSMax Render Speed - Scanline vs MR
I've always used the "default Scanline" renderer in max for everything including baking AO and normalmaps. However, I've been doing a little research and I've seen conflicting opinions that MR is faster for basic rendering tasks like these (especially with multi-core CPUs). I just wanted to ask if there is much truth in… -

Long topic field I know. I was wondering if there is a way to use ambient occlusion to determine how much a surface can be lit? For example, if I wanted to use a falloff map that uses the light and shadow functionality; could I use and ambient occlusion map or material to determine how much light will affect the falloff… -
3DSMax - Using Out of Range loop on multi-animation timeline
When setting the "Out of Range Type" in the curve editor to 'loop' it'll allow an animation to loop as many times as the timeline length will allow. But, if you're storing multiple animations along the timeline the loop takes the hidden parts of the timeline into account too. Is there a way to make the Out of Range Type… -
Baking Workflow 3dsmax
Hi, So here's the problem I want to do 1 bake and don't want to cram all of my uv's into the 0,1 space, nor do I want one massive texture sheet.
