Disney’s Ptex is now free open source
by Christa on Jan.20, 2010, under News
Ptex, the texture mapping system developed by Walt Disney Animation Studios for production-quality rendering is now released as free open source.
- No UV assignment is required! Ptex applies a separate texture to each face of a subdivision or polygon mesh.
- The Ptex file format can efficiently store hundreds of thousands of texture images in a single file.
- The Ptex API provides cached file I/O and high-quality filtering - everything that is needed to easily add Ptex support to a production-quality renderer or texture authoring application.

In this tutorial you will learn how to render an object to an image with both the solid and the wireframe render, without using PhotoShop or anything else than 3D Studio Max. Key terms include wire, Opacity map, Push modifier and Lattice modifier. This tutorial is aimed at the beginner, but should be interesting for the more advanced 3D artists as well. Although this tutorial is based on 3D Studio Max, the same techniques apply to many other 3D products. |
