Sorry for the super long timed response, how do you expect me to create the intricated forerunner designs without SPlines

plane modeling?

Plane modeling would be a complicated solution for a very simple problem, that's why i stick to SPlines.

Which is why you're getting a complaint for sub-par quality.

ok i beleave this thread is for all 3ds max questions. If not i was directed wrong...

When i first d/l max was there a default material library that came with it? In the spot for material librarys are totally empty except the couple i have saved...

thanks again

Assuming I understand correctly, you can browse for material libraries that came with Max by clicking "Open" on the "Material Library" portion of the Material/Map Browser.

From there, the default materials are in, I believe, C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 9\materiallibraries, if you installed to the default location.

when i went to library the default open spot was in my documents folder, thats why i could not find them, thanks for the help

Could someone post a 3ds Max physique for the Master Chief. I have all of the bones in place, but I just can't get the physique right. The elbows and thumbs are giving me a hard time. I might need bones too. A physique won't really work perfectly without the bones that go with. Thanks.

He is still in his original pose. The one that he is in when you import him.

Illegal.

scynide · Post by **scynide** » Mon May 14, 2007 1:46 pm

I didn't think it was illegal to post physique and bone files. Sorry.

Just use Skin, it's much easier.

In order to give you the modifier settings, you would have to have the exact same mesh (same number of verts, locations etc. ) so it wouldn't do you any good unless you were given the mesh. Which, would be illegal. Im pretty sure giving out a bone structure that doesn't have any of the mesh would be legal though. Except, you could do that yourself.

Ok. Thanks guys.

That would be illegal. KKC, i think the uv map on the chest looks odd. However, it could be the angle. Can you render a front view as well?

kornkidcrazy · Post by **kornkidcrazy** » Tue May 15, 2007 2:46 pm

yeah, here is a front view.

Darco · Post by **Darco** » Tue May 15, 2007 3:26 pm

You might wanna add some lighting, or change what you have.

kornkidcrazy · Post by **kornkidcrazy** » Tue May 15, 2007 3:34 pm

Oh i know, just testing the shader first.

Darco · Post by **Darco** » Tue May 15, 2007 3:46 pm

So far it looks pretty good, keep going with it.
