HELP! real world scale disabled then automatically activated when i turbo smooth

Anonymous — Tue, 14 Jun 2016 16:06:55 GMT

hello im very confused now

i currently have a final exam project to model my character design

so i thought that i ALREADY DISABLE the "real world scale", so i converted my object to be "editable poly".

then my character modelling is finished.

the next step is: i want to colour my character by using the material editor

- Standard

- Diffuse color

- Bitmap

- apply to object

- show shaded material

at first its fine, the image has been input and no ERROR, all of the scale is alright. (i already unwrap and coloured the lines)

[ i already disabled real world scale in my material editor, and the box at the very start ]

but when i turbo smooth my character.

my image is turned back to be VERY small. ( as if the realworld scale has been activated )

and when i turned off the turbo smooth, it still error ! so im really afraid to ruin my final project now 😧

is there some kind of settings for this? or can i set the real world scale in the turbo smooth?

or my biggest question is: is it possible to set the realworld scale if the object has been converted to editable poly?

Hi. This sound really odd, and I'm not totally sure that "Real World Scale" is the problem. But here's some things to try:

1) In preferences there's a checkbox for using real world scale when creating new objects. Make sure this is turned off. Maybe there's a bug making Max consider applying Turbosmooth as a new object - who knows...

2) If I understood it correct, you're using a standard material. In standard materials there's a checkbox for "Face Map". If this is checked it'll give a result similar to what you describe, so make sure this is unchecked.

Last but not least - never trust the viewport display 100%. There's so many situations where the viewport will display things wrong, so always make test renders to see if things actually acts like it looks in the viewport.

Hope it helps
