<Piccy> Has anyone nailed down a -good- way to make realistic gr***?
<v0id`> i've been trying to figure that out forever
<v0id`> never got anywhere
<Dr_Rambo> figure what out
<Arielana> !seen narc
<v0id`> the thing that i found gave the best results
<mrHelpman> I found 5 matches to your query (sorted): `narc narc narcosys narc2 narc-afk. `narc (j@crlspr-24.233.190.250.myacc.net) was last seen quitting from #3dsmax 1 day, 18 hours, 33 minutes ago stating (Read error: Operation timed out).
<v0id`> <Piccy> Has anyone nailed down a -good- way to make realistic gr***?
<v0id`> that
<Dr_Rambo> oh
<v0id`> the only thing i found that gave good results over a large area, was to use rectangles with texture masks
<v0id`> so you create a mask in PS that looks like ||||||
<Dr_Rambo> how about hair
<Dr_Rambo> hair fx
<v0id`> well
<v0id`> i always wanted to do like huge amounts of gr***
<Dr_Rambo> or using displacement mapping
<v0id`> like whole stadiums and stuff
<v0id`> so using a hair shader was just wayyyy too many polys
<v0id`> and would take years to render, or just plain crash the pc
<Dr_Rambo> I think what they need is just a view/cameral culling script
<Dr_Rambo> I havn't seen something like it yet
<Dr_Rambo> but somebody good with Maxscript should really do it
<Dr_Rambo> basically, the camera cone will cull the object
<Dr_Rambo> anything too far away, will be hidden
<v0id`> yeah
<Dr_Rambo> as it gets closer to user, it gets more polygon
<Dr_Rambo> using MAX's own MRM
<Dr_Rambo> multi-resolution-mesh
