3ds Max Modeling :: Tweak / Remodel Existing Model?

Feb 19, 2014

I have recently purchased a 3d model of a car which I need to make 3d print ready for a project. I have come a long way since, getting to know the software and finishing all of the chassis. However, whilst editing parts of the car's bottom side, I noticed that when viewed from this perspective it is badly out of shape. When compared to a real model, one can see that the body is way too narrow in between the tires, making the whole thing kinda look like a bone. I have attached pictures of both, the unedited 3d model I purchased as well as a real model which I know to be very accurate to the real thing, to show you what I mean.

3ds Max Modeling :: How To Remesh Existing Mesh With Equally-spaced Triangles

Nov 10, 2012

I have an existing mesh based on quads.(Similar to how 'garment maker' generates a flat mesh, but wrapped around my existing mesh while keeping (close to) the same shape.

Is there a way to do that? Most remeshers will generate quads but I really need equally-spaced triangles to reform the mesh.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Model Existing Drainage Channel?

Sep 28, 2012

how one might model an existing drainage channel.

Here’s the scenario – field crews are going to collect data for a 500 ft long concrete (trapezoidal) drainage channel. The bottom width varies from 7 ft to 19 ft wide with vertical walls varying from 4 ft to 7’ high. The channel will be filled and capped.

I considered using one of the channel subassemblies with Civil 3d and establish targets along the existing channel top and bottom of walls. However, I don’t see that the stock subassemblies are intended for this and don’t really lend themselves to perform this. I suppose the other option is to use linkwidthandslope subassemblies and use multiple targets for inside bottoms, inside tops and outside tops of walls.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Use Existing Sketch While Making New Part (model)

Aug 12, 2013

I have made a part - a motor that has four holes.

Now I'm trying to make another part, which will be aluminium plate that needs to have holes in exactly same points as the motor. My assembly containts both that parts.

What I'm trying to do is to reference in sketch a point that comes from different part (motor).

I could do it by hand, make it look that the holes are on top of each other but then there will be an error which doesn't seem professional.

In some tutorial on yt I have only found that using points one can reference the holes more easily, but it didn't show how.

3ds Max Modeling :: Cut Up A Model Into Components

May 30, 2013

I'm trying to cut up a model into components. I'm using QuickSlice but it doesn't seem to be functioning the way it's supposed to. It's a building with straight edges so it should be really straightforward. In perspective view I select an edge which is just a single edge running between two vertices.I then press QuickSlice. Then with snap to vertex on, I select both vertices in turn but the slice runs off right around the back of my model in a seemingly random way. I don't get it- I'm following the instructions in the description.

3ds Max Modeling :: Smoothing Errors In Model

Jul 21, 2013

At this present time I would consider myself a high end beginner at 3ds max. 

I am currently trying to model a mech and have been trying to smooth it. I have made progress but I don't know where to take the geometry from here. There are numerous smoothing errors in the model and I understand why they are happening, I just don’t know the right way to fix them. You will understand what I mean if you have a look at the model (I've attached it so you can download it).
 
For example, in the first image you can see an error, if I extended the edges this may get rid of it, but then I get the result in the second image, and it doesn't look right .

3ds Max Modeling :: Fitted Lid On Irregular Model

Mar 9, 2012

I want to model a hollow stone shaped (see images attached) object in 3D max that will be 3D printed. The stone shape has to have a separate top and bottom so that I can embed electronics in it afterwards. My problem is I am finding it difficult to create a lip that will enable the top & bottom to securely fit into one another, so that when someone picks it up it will not fall apart. I was thinking of using a system like the attached image Lip_Profile.gif. I have no problem modelling something like this on a regular box/sphere using a lathe, however I can't find a technique to model this on irregular objects. Any technique that would enable me to model such a fitted lid?

Photoshop :: CS4 PSD Tweak Colors To Balance More

3ds Max :: How To Tweak The Mouse Scroll Button

Dec 29, 2011

I find it a little hard to use the mouse scroll button for panning and rotating. Often I tend to zoom the scene or in the act of balance the scroll button when pressing it, I don't get the right tool and have to press it again, and that makes it not as intuitive as I would like to. I wounder if it's possible to alter the way I pan and rotate? Can I place the pan and rotate function at the right mouse button? Or is there mouses on the market that have a middle mouse button AND a scroll wheel so I can separate the pan/rotate from the zoom?

3ds Max Modeling :: Model Which Cannot Be Selected / Hidden Or Deleted?

I'm using max 2011

I have a model which was originally a SAT file, it was just an extruded profile in the CAD package. When originally imported the part was fine, was selectable etc, but now for some reason this part is non-selectable, won't disappear when you do "hide all" etc but still renders and will still accept material types applied to it ?

3ds Max Modeling :: How To Model A Box Like Shape With Ripples Over Its Surface

Jun 21, 2012

I'm trying to model a box like shape with ripples over it's surface. The box can have rounded corners and edges. The ripples need to flow over the 6 faces of the box. I want 2 or 3 sets of ripples, originating in different places, interacting with each other.

My modelling skills in Max are not great. I generally use Inventor for modelling and Max for lighting, materials, animation and rendering. I've followed loads of tutorials on ways of doing this, but haven't quite managed it yet.

My latest attempt has been to use the patchdeform tool. What I've done is

1) modelling a plane, with many segments
2) applied the ripple modifier to the plane
3) created a box with smoothed edges/corners
4) converted the box to a patch
5) tried to patchdeform the plane to the box - get 'illegal patch' error

The above work with a sphere rather than a box. I'm not convinced this is the best way to achieve what I want.
