i have got 2 ways to create foliage for architectural rendering. One of them is using proxies and the other is using particle system.I have got another idea.
Use position restricted one polygonal plane with opacity mapped plane.Scatter.Look at constraint with camera.
in any version of 3ds max to have an animation rendered as it looks like in the viewport. Without any render engine (scanline, mentalray etc...). So the exported avi looks exactly what i see in the viewport during editing.

I've been given the task of rendering an animation of a towerblock covered in RGB leds. Approximately 200 of them. I don't suppose there's a clever way of importing a light-show, rather than dying of old-age fiddling with the curve editor?
The lighting designer is using 'ShowCAD' which is apparently quite popular in the industry..

why i cannot change the color of the background when rendering? It is always black, and i cannot attached or make new material, if need to attach jpeg or new texture on my drawing, cannot create new material. what should i do? im currently using autocad for mac 2012.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a jpeg of two people standing in front of some foliage. I want to use the background eraser to remove the foliage.The tool removes most of the foliage but leaves small unerased areas all over. I have to go over it many times to remove everything which takes ages.I am using the default settings for the background eraser tool. The only setting I have changed is the size (to 150).It certainly does not seem as easy to use this tool as the Corel tutorial on background removal makes it seem!

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have an animation I am trying to render as a Quicktime using H.264 compression at 720x480 with just one camera. I have 4 different sound clips (wavs) loaded into the scene. When I scrub the slider, the sound works just fine. However, when I render the scene as the mov, the sound does not render with it. Do you know why this isn't working and how to fix it so the sound will render with the mov?
I am using the ProSound option and rendering the scene at 30fps. Normally the sound works just fine when I render but now it won't work.
backburner is a good tool, but it doesnt always work as expected... everything that is not an image is simply ignored while sent over the network. hence problems of "missing map". (and the server does not render anything if anything is missing) be it an audio file, or anything else. like the point cache file. max has no problem to send the XML file, but will not even look at the MC that is linked. those particular ones are giving me a very bad time dealing with them.
is there a way to trick max into baking point cache into a vertex animation or something ? (i know maya does it, but i never found a way for that in max) or maybe tricking backburner into sending EVERY files related to the max file. also, the "save as archive" doesnt take it eighter. i suspect someone forgot to implement it in the function..

I use rhino 3d for a lot of my modeling and just recently been exploring 3ds max 2011, and I really like the mirror command in rhino because I can just click and mirror my object across a grid line, however in 3ds max the modifier is much more difficult to use in my opinion. If their are any former rhino users in the Area. way of using the mirror modifier to simulate the Rhino mirror command or even suggest another modifier that would preform in a similar manner as in rhino.

I'm only talking about changing the file size in JPG to a smaller or larger one for saving, We tried something yesterday, which sort of worked, but I decided the best solution was just to re-scan the original image again, which came out a lot smaller (ks), even though both methods were set to achieve 200 dpi. I think that was under "scale image". (I have been used to using a method called "resample" in another program, where you can change the dpi or inches/mm and off it goes.)

I’m Photoshop self-taught. Most of the work I do on Photoshop involves placing elements (objects, people, animals, etc.) into regular and stock photos. Down below is a list of the tools and filters I use to adjust the element(s) so they look like they are a real part of the picture.I can get real close. Real close. But I can’t quite bring it home. I feel there’s some tool(s) or trick(s) or filter(s) I’m not using. I can’t find anything online or in Photoshop books or manuals.

I was working on a Photoshop CS4 file last night that was created in CS4 and has only been opened on this machine in CS4. I saved the file and closed Photoshop. When I open the file today, all my layers are gone, flattened into one Background layer, and the image looks like colored TV static. On top of that, the separate, older version of this file with a different name (created earlier in the week on the same machine in the same CS4) will not open at all - I get the error message, "Could not complete your request because the file is empty" and the file size has mysteriously shrunk to 76 KB from 20+ MB. What happened?! I'm guessing these files are corrupted beyond recovery, but why and how did this happen?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm developing a routine that uses a windows form to gather data from the user. For a lot of this I need info for the Left side & the Right side. I have pretty much finished writing the code to take care of the Right side. I have 40 properties now all with "Right" in their names in anticipation of needing corresponding "Left" ones. I have numerous textboxes, checkboxes, & radio buttons on the form along with various input validation methods used to set these 40 properties.
I could just copy all of this code & replace "Right" with "Left", but there are about 500 lines of code (hard to tell since I use a lot of white space), and that seems rather inefficient, especially if something needs to change.
I'm starting to think that maybe I should develop this into one custom control that could be used for both sides. Any alternative ways of dealing 40 right properties & 40 left properties and all that goes behind making those properties work.

I want to use a monochrome image to create a (1/3 size) image with subpixel precision. For starters, a pure black&White clipart seems the easiest to do this with. But after toying around some I couldn't find or think of a proper way to do this.
Any method to convert greyscale-antialiased images to 1/3 sized subpixel antialiased ones?
- Scaled the vertical resolution to 1/3
- Created 3 copies offset by 0, 1 and 2 pixels respectively for use in the next step
- Masked out 2 in every 3 colums of pixels leaving R, G and B striped versions.
- Scaled striped component images to 1/3 horizontal resolution
(no interpolation, aligned so that it uses exacly the desired 1 in 3 colored pixels)
- Got stuck with three seperate R, G and B colored component images...
- Posted this question
Also, attached is an intermediate result of my efforts: the combination of the three striped R, G and B versions. Simply scaling the attached image unfortunately does not yield the desired (and expected) result.
Is there a reason why when I convert a font using create outlines, this is happening with Stempel Schneidler btw, it appears to add a bit of weight to the type? I've never run across this issue before. I first noticed it when I printed out the document. It all of a sudden seemed heavier compared to the font normally. The problem becomes much more pronounced at a small scale. I notice it onscreen AND when I print it. I wouldn't normally create outlines but the letterspacing is pretty tight on this and I need to make a TY ligature.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been getting my hands on a few models from different games (Such as the Spy from 'Team Fortress 2', and Mario from 'Super Smash Brothers Brawl') lately, all of which are already weighted properly... So I can simply apply IK's and begin animating in a matter of minutes...
However, I can't set up any of them with a HIK rig (To use with Motion Capture..).. I keep getting an "Invalid skeleton or no skeleton. Can't create new rig." error when trying to Create the HIK Rig (I can Characterize the skeleton with no problem though). I know that the mesh is binded already to the skeleton using skin clusters..
I want to create a whipping animation. But not just a simple one. My whip is a collapsed folding rule. So I motion captured me doing the whipping movement and imported that into 3dsmax.
As a folding rule does not expand in real life like that I thought about attaching a virtual weight to one end and connect the other end via link to the throwing hand. So the end of the FR is connected to a mass which makes it inert.
I'm using a video layer and I have been using onion-skinning. I wanted to start my in between sketches to make the animation more smooth.

Surely this has to be an option, there are always going to be layers during an artwork build that are options or earlier efforts etc that you may wish to revisit, to have the entire lot dumped into animate is a pain. Its not obvious which they are when in there, layer names don't appear.
I am trying to create a movie with Corel Video Studio Pro with imported images that I have created in a 3D program! The framerate should be 24frames/second in the movie but it looks like
I can only get down to a image speed of 0.1 second or 10 frames/second by editing each images and then reduce duration time. Is it impossible to get the duration time to 0.0417 that is about a speed of 24 frames/second? If it is impossible maybe something for the wishlist to the future!
Next quistion is is it possible to somewhere in the settings change the duration time for images so you don't need to edit each images each time! It can be hard if you have over 400 images to edit!
