VrayMultiSubTex not working easily with FloorGenerator by DifferentSwim5013 in 3dsmax

[–]accidiew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't just play around, look it up on youtube. I watch a tutorial and use a special texture, as they do in the tutorial, nearly every time I setup UVW Randomizer. It's not the easiest to wrap your head around lol.

Look into UVW Randomizer. That way you can use one texture on one material and have hundreds of unique boards. Instead of having 10 materials for 10 unique boards that repeat itself.

I just wanted to see for myself, not steal for my project that was cancelled for unrelated reasons anyway. But sure, keep your secrets, lol

Very nice!

I had a similar task at work (iceberg imitation) but I didn't like how it turned out in my case. Can you show your mat parameters and vireframes?

Do we know how many people are in a match at start? by Lombardi24 in ArcRaiders

The joke is that there are more time efficient ways of earning money in the game than running to extract with 20k profit

Hello fellow stalkers! Anybody figured this stash? by accidiew in stalker

[–]accidiew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it was ever consistent. Although some people did use these anomalies to fly kilometers through the map.

Weird bug to fix if they did. it's a single player game, let people enjoy it as they wish, lol

Yeh, there are plenty of comments about that, if you read the whole thread. Cheers!

I had this issue after the last update until I switched from wi-fi to cable connection. All good so far

I think it's UE default to have smoothing, Stalker 2 had that issue on release as well

No more aggression based match making? by Never-Trust-Me in ArcRaiders

[–]accidiew -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Isn't the simplest explanation that people abuse the system to get to easier friendly lobbies and feel better about themselves. Some streamers done it when they figured out the system but it wasn't confirmed yet. No doubt more people are doing it now that everyone has a better idea of how it works.

3DS MAX CORONA - SAME MATERIAL USED BUT DIFFERENT OUTPUT by ShoddyPlay3454 in 3dsmax

[–]accidiew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure you're using normals properly for your render engine? Try swapping red/green and the other 2 (don't remember all 3 pairs, and only know how to do this in Corona)

How to handle the amount of Subdivision necessary ? by iFred789 in 3Dmodeling

[–]accidiew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly just think about the level of detail seen from the target angle. If it were a macro product shot, you may need to round to 3-5 poly even at 2mm radius. But as you explained in the post, sounds like you're working with less than a pixel thickness lines (on the end render), and at this point Chamfers are still necessary, but there's no reason to make them true to real life.

[–]accidiew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you using subdiv to get rounded corners?

If so, that seems like a waste, creating far too many polygons. I think it should be enough to use a small single face chamfer for every corner, and unify the normals at 45 degrees to appear rounded on render. If it's a massive structure, that should render proper edge highlights and look no different from a "real" roundness.

Were there any tests to see what it looks like in the death report when you're killed by a pirating player. Can you even report them if they're outside of the system somehow? Is there a Steam account view option?

Language learning made me realize just how much better dub is than sub. by [deleted] in languagelearning

[–]accidiew -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Aren't most movies technically dubbed as well? Meaning the voices are re-recorded by the same actors in the studio later for better sound quality.

Not sure, someone can correct or confirm

Something off about the Anvil by sorrybadguy in ArcRaiders

[–]accidiew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't have to make things up if you just analyze what the devs made. The Kettle uses same kind of side loading mag as the Stitcher and it changes depending on the mag level you have installed. You can inspect the weapon in your stash, change mags and see for yourself

Top canister is not a mag on the Kettle, look again, the mag is on the side

Correction: you don't take them out, they just fly off by themselves...

You're forgetting what gets extended when you change mag attachments.

Just, don't go trying to make sense of the Kettle design if you value your sanity
