3ds Max :: Frozen Meshes Completely Disappear?

Dec 20, 2013

Whenever I freeze an object, either with "Display Frozen meshes in gray" turned off or on, they disappear completely from the scene. Even though they are still there, because if I "Unfreeze All" the meshes will pop back in the scene.
 
Almost as if freezing the object also automatically hides it, which is very problematic.

3ds Max :: Turning Lines Into Meshes

Feb 9, 2014

I'm busy making a map during which I've been working with creating a line around the shape of the island and then converting it to a editable mesh. On 55 lines it worked, then on 4 it didn't. Turning them into an editable mesh gave me nothing. I don't believe I did anything different with them, though I might have set 1 point or so differently.

3ds Max :: How To Scale Meshes Properly

Mar 10, 2013

[URL] as you can see in the attachment. I need to scale the boot fits into the feet properly. I have tried to do that by adjusting polygons and vertex but it doesn't make a good result. I am wondering is there any sophisticated method to exactly fit the boot into the feet without any clipping and extra space as seen in the image.

3ds Max Modeling :: Combine Two Meshes?

Oct 15, 2012

I have two large meshes, an existing site and the new grade. I have tried just attaching them, but there are a lot of gaps where they meet. And in some places the existing shows through the new where they have removed grade. How can I combine these into one seamless mesh?

Photoshop :: 3D Render - Meshes Won't Move

Apr 18, 2013

the bugginess of Photoshop 64 bit CS6 Extended 3d (v13.0 x32 -- no updates since launch??) on a Windows 7 x64 workstation. It constantly crashes, renames my layers, and scenes will suddenly go into the netherworld requiring a PS restart.
 
However, after spending hours assembling a scene with just 3 simple postcard meshes, I can no longer affect the meshes' coordinates or sizes either by dragging or typing in numbers in to the properties panel -- after attempting a move, it shows the busy cursor for a second or two and then puts the mesh back where it started. To add insult, it adds an undo state to move the mesh back! I tried restarting PS to no avail.

I hesitate to re-assemble the scene with a new file if this is a common occurrence.

Maya Modeling :: Bridging Two Meshes

Sep 15, 2010

I'm new to Maya and am trying to bridge two meshes in the first modeling exercise (to make a helmet). The instructions said to select Select > Select Border Edge Tool and then to select the 5 border Edges on the original polygon and then the 5 on the newly created bottom part and then I am to select Edit Mesh > Bridge and to set the division to 0 and then to check Bridge. I did all of these steps but then this "// Error: Invalid selection : polyBridgeEdge requires equal number of border edges to be selected for source and target selection." appears. I've tried choosing different numbers on each side to see if that is some how the error.

Photoshop :: Merge Saved Liquify Meshes?

Jul 30, 2009

I have a number of meshes that I have applied to a single layer. I want to run these within an action but I don't want to have the pain of loading all of these meshes many times. Is it possible to merge them all into 1 mesh so I can just run the liquify command once?

AutoCad 3D :: When Render Lines And Meshes Don't Show Up

[URL] I have an instrument drawing with 3d and hatch meshes and some lines. When I render the image the lines and meshes I have do not show up. is there any way to fix this? I know rendering is only for 3d objects (now that I have read up on it) but what about the lines in a drawing that you need to see in the final image?

3ds Max Modeling :: Merging Hollow Meshes For 3D Printing

Jun 10, 2013

This is part of a project to 3D print models of cities using data extracted from public sources.  I have extracted the model data for cities, but cannot get models that will print correctly.  From the attached file, you will see that I created a simple standard primitive rectangular base, but there are also sorts of holes in the meshes of the cities. Do you 3DS wizards know any way to :
 
1) combine the solid rectangular primitive so that it will be solid through the meshes that it intersects; and/or 
 
2) fill the sometimes hollow 3d building models so that I can print them (regardless of the interiors).

Maya Modeling :: Multiple Textured Meshes

Oct 30, 2013

Is it better to texture multiple meshes of a same object as opposed to unwapping and texturing just one mesh and then duplicating the object over and over?

Fox example, I'm working in Maya and I'm modeling a grocery store. And let's say I'm about to texture an isle with bagged snack chips. Do I unwrap every UV from every bag of chips and texture them individually or is it better to unwrap and texture just one bag (mesh) of chips and then duplicate object multuple times to get the whole isle of chips.

3ds Max Animation :: Create A Bone System That Uses Meshes

Jun 23, 2012

I currently have a model made of a few different meshes (head, body, upper/lower arms etc...) which I have linked together. I primarily animated by rotating the joints of the model, but it just isn't cutting it anymore.

Is there anyway I can create a bone system that uses the meshes as the "bones"? I'd like to be able to do that so I can change the models for every part of the robot seperately in my game by changing the mesh associated with the bone. I've tried searching google and youtube but I'm not really sure what to search for.

Maya Modeling :: How To Combine Two Meshes With Different Colors

Jul 23, 2011

why is it that anytime i try to combine to meshes (which were originally one mesh to start with) with different colors on them i loose the colors on both after the combine operations is invoked? It's pretty much a door with one color on one side and another on the other side. I extracted the face then painted it a white color after painted the other side a dark color. When i position them back to combine the colors disappear and goes back to that default grayish color.

3ds Max :: How To Set Pivot Point Of Eyes To Be At The Center Of Their Meshes

Feb 14, 2012

I have a character model I got from the Evolver site before it went offline.

I need to set the pivot point of the eyes to be at the center of their meshes so I can use it in Face Robot.

I do this by clicking on the eye object and "Affect Pivot Only", "Center to Object". This works but when I export the model as FBX the moment the export has finished my eyes have both jumped to the the floor and my pivot is still in the correct place. When I import the FBX into Softimage I see the eyes are now on the floor. I also have the same when I try to do the pivot point in Softimage [URL]....I am a competent modeller however a begginer when it comes to Autodesk's software. Is their some property on the model that could make it peform liek this, does it have something to do with the bones/skining?

i have spent the last 2 days trying to move an eye balls origin

3ds Max Modeling :: Loft Generated Meshes Getting Twisted In All Directions

Dec 15, 2011

I'm trying to create a "wipeoutish" track using splines. In fact, the track itself is generated by a tool and I want to use it in 3dsMax to create the environment.

So i'm importing the spline into 3dsMax, create a template spline and use "Loft" or "Sweep" to extrude the model along the track. But whereas everything works if my track is perfectly planar, I get some crazy stuffs if there's even the slightest change in the Z axis.

I've tried disabling Contour (then the track is horizontal but there are problems at each turns) and Banking but I can't seem to be able to get a perfectly horizontal track using this way.

Is there a way to force the normal of the generated Track to be vertical ? (get the green track over the spline used by the blue track ...)

Photoshop :: Ragged Shadows In 3D Images / Meshes Created From Greyscale?

Nov 26, 2012

I am having a problem creating smooth 3D images.I have been taking a 16-bit greyscale image with a various domes and other shapes with systematic gradations of greyness 'impressed' onto it. From this, I use the "create 3D mesh from greyscale" to create a surface whose depth is based on the values in the 16-bit greyscale image: this greyscale image becomes the "Background Depth" layer in the 3D image. I then add a Background layer (that exactly matches the greyscale image) to the 3D image, which will determine how the 3D shape will be coloured.
 
I then force ray tracing using the "Quality: " "Ray Trace Draft" or "Ray Trace Final" and the result is a 3D surface with some shadows. Okay so far, BUT the surface is a bit pitted, a bit ragged, not smooth, the shadows have jagged bit in - it's just not very good, in fact, it's unusably poor.  Even if I apply some filtering to the greyscale image to smooth out any nasty discontinuities there may be in it, the final 3D surface is still pitted, with jagged shadows etc.
 
If I look at a wireframe version of a 3D image, it is clear that the resolution of the starting image is better than that of the wireframe image: there are several points in the original image to each point on the wireframe image (that is to say, each vertex in the triangles that make up the wire frame image is several points away from each other vertex).
 
When I look at the sample images in tutorials etc they look incredibly smooth and appealing. Why cannot I produce the same quality of image?  Are there some settings in the Edit->Preferences->3D panel that I need to reset?  Some way of increasing the number of triangles in the wireframe model?
 
I have posted a sample of the grayscale image, and a sample of the 3D image that this greyscale image produces when converted into a mesh. (I've saved them as JPG files, which forces the 16-bit greyscale into 8-bit mode. But the original conversion to a mesh was performed using a 16-bit greyscale image).

I am using windows 7 on an HP Pavilion Laptop, using OpenGL to draw the graphics.

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Split Solid Object Into Group Of 3D Polygon Meshes

Dec 17, 2012

I drew a solid model of a structure in Autocad 2010. By using that model, I want to make a FEM analysis in Sap2000. The problem is that Sap2000 takes only polygon meshes (not solids) in 3d. The question is that how can i make a group of polygon meshes of the solid model that represents the structure.

(Since i am not an expert of Autocad, i will be glad if the solution is explained in a simple language.)

Illustrator :: CS6 To CS4 - White Lines Along Edges Of Semi-transparent Gradient Meshes

Feb 17, 2014

I recently invested in CS6 Production Premium and I've just tested legacy support by saving an Illustrator CS6 image in CS4 format.
 
The image contains a number of semi-transparent gradient meshes used for highlights.
 
Having loaded the saved CS4 .ai file in CS6, white lines appear along my semi-transparent gradient meshes (see the attached screenshot).
 
What's happening is that the anchor points with 0% opacity in CS6 suddenly have 100% opacity when I load the saved CS4 files in CS6.
 
Is this a known error? If so, how/where do I report it?
 
Here are the relevant CS6 and CS4 files: [URL] ....
 
There are no white lines when I save the image in CS5 format and load it in CS6.

VideoStudio :: Pro X6 Frozen On Startup?

Nov 30, 2013

I was looking for a video editing program, and after reading good reviews for VSP x6 I downloaded the trial. It installed and started up the first time fine without any problems. I was able tinker with the program and began to like it.

However, I closed it out to take a break, then came back to it (same day, and hour later) now every time on startup it hangs on the overlayed "Corel Guide" flash intro. The window pops up and allows navigation of the "Corel Guide" and I am able to click-through of the links, but it will not collapse the guide or let me use the actual program at all. I also can not close the program either without using task manager. I am only on day 1 of the 30 day trial. I have attached a screenshot.

My cpu should be able to handle the program without a problem, it is running Win7 64bit, with 16GB Ram, AMD Phenom II x6 Processor, 3.20Ghz

3ds Max :: Starting Out With Frozen Tasks?

Dec 1, 2013

I have a Render message that reads in red type "FTL: Virtual device creation failed." And I'm unable to click out of the message box, or click OK or cancel. Nothing happens. There seems to be a problem with my screen as well, it holds onto prior open windows and I'm unable to have a fresh window in Max. Does any of this have anything to do with os Windows 7 Home Premium vs. Pro or Ultimate? Even some of the tasks in Max don't seem to be initializing. For example, I tried to Manage>Set up Project and clicked on file in Windows 7 Home Premium and nothing happens.

Photoshop :: CS6 Frozen When Using Liquify Tool

Aug 26, 2013

I am facing a very similar problem as the user on this thread:

[URL]..........
 
Essentially when I open up the liquify tool, even if I just press cancel, Photoshop will just freeze and I have to kill the process manually.  I suspect it is a video card issue, so I checked and ensure the laptop is using the latest driver. Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family (driver version: 8.15.10.2869, ig4icd64.dll)
 
Since I am already running the latest driver, what else can I do to rectify this problem?

VideoStudio :: Two Extra Frozen Frames?

Oct 26, 2010

It occurs only in Corel Video Studio Pro X3 ... two extra (frozen) frames for free. In other programs all frames of my camera act correct.

At the beginning of each video file there are two extra frames at the timeline, so each video file starts with three identical frames and that causes each file starts with 0,12 sec frozen video.

When I remove the two frames, two frozen frames are added at the end if a file! In the end-product there are three frozen frames between each cut! And 0,12 seconds is visible …
