3DSM - Viewport Canvas

[red'']

hey there. unbelievable what you're doing here over the time, especially my partner tekk.
hope i find some time someday to work a bit on the game, too.
 
 
i just wanted to show you the "viewport canvas" feature for 3ds max (2011) for easier skinning.
sorry, my "tut" is only worked out over minutes.
 
you find this feature over: extras -> viewport canvas
 

 
some reading for better understanding:
 
Autodesk Viewport Canvas
Editable Poly
 
for better quality, try out this setting or play around to get the best resolution:
customize -> preferences -> viewport -> driver settings
 
- set viewport graphics driver to direct3D
- set the viewport texture resolution to the highest setting and check the "Match bitmap size as close as possible" option
- set the texel lookup to "Nearest" for best resolution or try other.
 
 
usefull video for facepainting:

 
 
 
as always, try out to understand. cia.
