I have a character in Max. The eyes are separate geometry as usual. When I "Send to Mudbox" everything works out fine. No error messages. But the eyes are being placed by the knees and close together. Though I can move them into position, I'd like to know what's cause this problem? The character itself is fine.
The eyes ARE quads with correct Unwrapping. Again, no warning displaying.
it is windows8 64 bits.i can't send anything to mudbox.The button is available,but when open mudbox ,there is nothing.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I use the Send to Mudbox, it outputs via the FBX into Mudbox and when I raise the subdivision level, my polys go crazy. The model in Max is an Editable Mesh that has been xFormed. Earlier in my process, I output as an obj and that was fine. I sculpted for a while in Mudbox (up to subD level 4), and when I wanted to adjust some geometry in Max, I output a subDivisional lvl 1 model. Cut in some new edges and used the Update scene file in the Send to Max tol, resulting in the attached picture. I could export it as an obj, but I would lose the sculpting I've already done.

This one should be simple, but I can't even get it to work! Please take a look at the drawing... when you flip it, it flips everything (as it should), but the stretch grip goes "up", instead of staying in the middle of the box in the flipped state.
I have a Civil3D file with Drawing Settings = WGS84 UTM-Zone44 North Map3D coordinate system = WGS84 UTM-Zone44 North a USGS DEM from HYDROsheds data set (tile = N40E80) also note this DEM is a folder of multiple ADF files when using FDO provider the DEM comes in just fine but it lands in the wrong location thousands of kilometers away.
When I load the same shape files into ArcMAP10 with spatial reference as WGS84 UTM-Zone44 North everything lines up perfectly.
The header prj.adf file is this:
PROJECTION GEOGRAPHIC
UNITS DD
DATUM WGS84
PARAMETERS
so how do I make it come into Map3D correctly?
I have recently moved a catalog from a PC to a mac (after 5+ years using PSE on a PC). I transferred (using PSE11 restore catalog process) 25,000+ photos across using the instructions from adobe and had it all working perfectly for a couple of weeks.
Recently all the photos in my catalog have become 'missing files'. The catalog is located in a custom location on the internal drive being '/users/marcus/pictures/adobe/organizer/media/media/'
pse11 now thinks location is '/volumes/public/users/marcus/pictures/adobe/organizer/media/media/'
The /volumes/ directory contains references to files on network drives (and show up under 'Shared' in finder). I have no idea how PSE11 decided to think all the files in ther catalog were on a network drive.
When I reconnect the file manually, then the program returns the error "The file exists in the catalog."
This error appears to be the one referenced here: [URL] ... being kb404560 but these are mostly windows based solutions. I have tried the suggested solutions without success on the mac
I suspect the problem occurred due to OSX's stadard process of mounting virtual drives to install new programs but this is a guess as I am new to macs. I have unmounted all recent drives
I am running OS X 10.8.4 on a late 2012 27 inch iMac 3.4GHz i7 mac with 8 GB of memory.
I am painting a brick wall, the wall is separated into 2 objects, the bricks and the stuff between the bricks.
The problem I am having is that I isolate the stuff between the bricks and paint that gray but when I "show all objects" the gray color have transferred to the edges of the bricks. I have tried maps with different resolutions but that makes no difference.
How do I make it so that I can paint only on the isolated object?
One other way:I can apply 2 different mudbox materials, 1 to each object and create 2 diffuse maps, 2 bump maps and 2 specular maps. But how do I combine the different map with each other?
The objects are going to be combined into 1 mesh that uses 1 diffuse map, 1 normal map and 1 specular map.
Is there a way I could wrap a stencil around the object ?
For instance.. on a cube.. I use the stencil, straight line to wax a hard surface.
But on the edges, it breaks because it projects from the front.
any way to wrap the stencil around the object so the line continues without breaking on the edges ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue transferring an object I have sculpted in Mudbox, and trying to import it correctly to Maya. In Mudbox, both of my objects show up just fine (don't worry about the UV issue on the face). When I choose to 'send objects to Maya,' the objects display in a new scene, but the hair doesn't show up at all. In the Outliner, Maya displays an empty transform node titled 'hair,' but I can't get it to show up as a solid mesh within the scene.
Am I going to have to remodel the hair in mudbox again and just pray that the model will import to Maya without issues?
For some reason, when I try to create a transparent object with a low opacity material, the object underneath it seems blurred out as if the texture res of the inside object is very low. once I hide the transparent object it returns to normal.
Unfortunately it also looks like that when saving an image.
I tried playing around with the material and with the preferences of Mudbox but couldn't find a solution.
I am working on creating an alignment from a single polyline. The polyline, which was originally created in Carlson 2012, is a flat polyline that is about 1200 feet in length. When I select it with create alignment from object, it accepts it and seems to work. For some reason though, the stationing is way off --- e.g. the true 50' mark is showing up as 0+04.17 which results in an end station of 0+99.31 on a 1191' polyline.
edit> I also have tried this with a brand new polyline I created in civil3d, same issue.
Why does ettin vertex coordinates of a vertex keep returnin 1450 even after I have rotated object.
clearListener()
ResetMaxFile #noPrompt
c = convertToPoly(cone name:"pol" pos:[0,0,0] radius1:456 height:1450 heightsegments:1)
rotate c (angleaxis 30 [1,0,0])
q = c.EditablePoly.GetVertex 25
---I was expecting y = -725.0
-- and z = 1255.7368164063 because that what is shows when I select it. This is what I want returned.
--seem like its only getting the vertex position locaally as oppossed to the world no matter how I rotated the cone.
For as long as I can remember, across all versions of Autocad, I've had problems picking the right item on the popup menu for object snap (shift-right click). It frequently picks the item below the intended one, i.e. it will pick Parallel rather than Perpendicular. Trying a second time works every time. This problem has been so consistent that I don't believe it is user error. The item is highlighted, after all. There is no way I'm repeatedly missing it. Is it possible to calibrate the mouse in Autocad?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a xref with sample locations that I am working with and importing into multiple different files. My problem: I will make changes in the xref and then go to the drawing where the xref is attached. After reloading the xref, i see that in model space the changes are fine. These changes are just moving the location of an object. But when I go to paper space, it still shows the object where it initially was before I ever made a change.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I want to move an object a certain distance from the original location, I go to long winded trouble of drawing a line and attaching it to say, for example, the centre of a circle. Then MOVE the circle, selecting the base line as the centre to the end of the LINE using OSNAP.
Is this how you Pro's do it, I'm guessing not.
What governs the location/distance from the object of the "object move symbol" when an item is selected? See attached image. I have selected the blue view reference text but the four way arrow/move symbol is way below it. This isn't using the move command. The arrows can be hard to find in a crowded sheet if it's very far from the item selected.
For reference I have added an image showing the location of the object move symbol for a text item. It's in the upper left corner of the text outline.
Sometimes it works. Lately it rarely does. I have tried holding the command key and this does nothing. Why can I not move objects anymore.

I do not know why the catalog has changed the file location of "ALL" pictures to the location on my backup drive.
Example: K:My DocumentsMy PicturesPetsPICT1460-1.JPG
The actual location of the original photo is: D:My DocumentsMy PicturesPetsPICT1460-1.JPG
The location of "My Pictures" is on my primary Hard Drive D:My DocumentsMy Pictures

I've been working on a drawing that requires me to take .dwg files of 3D equipment and place them into my one drawing for general arrangement purposes. I used it once before but now I'm having a slight issue when I use the flatshot command. I seem to remember Flatshot making my new 2d block at the same coordinates as the existing model and that it would be at zero in the Zed axis (x,y,0). My block now appears and various locations, even when i specify coordinates or basepoint it can be off by a good amount. Is there an option that I'm forgetting or something, so I dont have to manaully move my block back to the desired coordinates?
This isn't a major problem since I can manually match the block back up with the coordinates my model is at and then move it to x,y,0 but I feel like theres a way to ensure I dont have to worry about doing that at all.
The new single-click interoperability feature is really awesome! Is it possible to integrate more applications this way? Is it possible to implement a plugin or script to leverage all these features?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am working with a human body mesh that I made in maya. The model is all quads, and has been sent to maya and exported back to Mudbox using .fbx many times.
The problem is: On my most recent trip from maya 2011 to mudbox 2011 the smooth tool no longer works the same. The tool still smooths but it tries to arrange the quads from my mesh from rectangles to a more diamond & star pattern. When I open a different file everything works like normal.
There are no errors when importing the FBX file, and every other tool works as it should.
I am relatively new to maya, and just self-taught with mudbox, so there is a very good chance that I may have caused the problem, but I cant find any settings that I would have accidentally adjusted and the problem stays with this mesh even if I import it into a different mudbox file.
For all I know it wont effect my final rigging and animation, but Ive never had it happen before on any other model and from how nasty it makes the mesh look I cant imagine it would be good.
I attached a before and after image of what happens when I use the smooth brush.
