Thursday, November 20, 2008

How you can create a Rolling Carpet or a Rolling Ribbon in 3ds max with very simple method?

Guys, Get ready..


Open 3ds Max

Go to Menu, Customize,Unit setup...
Check the 'Generic Units'



Create a Box


Length 14.5width 230Height 0.3

Length Segs 20

Width Segs 150

Heght Segs 1


Add a 'Bend' modifier from the modify Panel


Change the parameters to,
Angle -3000
Select x axis
Check 'Limit Effect'
Upper Limit 240
Lower limit 0

Now you got almost a Roll.







But to get a perfect Roll, go to Bend Modifier Sub object Level and Select the Gizmo
Select Rotate and in Perspective Viewport Change 'z' Value to 1

Now you got the exact Roll.




Select Bend 'Gizmo' Sub Object level and move right and left.

U will get a perfect animation. Add a Beautiful Texture and Render it.

Enjoy.


With this carpet rolling I have done animation for Braun Silk-epil.

Done animation in 3ds max. Created a pink silk texure for ribbon.

nice tutorial! Only thing is.. the roll doesnt get smaller when it rolls out because it rolls from the inside out?! I dont know how to fix this, maybe you have any ideas on this?

Hi, just open the scale transform type-in on the gizmo option and change the offset world as you like
