[?] Settting up a reference image

Post by DeltaFart »

Yeah I have no memory of how to do this but after pressing enough buttons i got it on screen but now the image is uber fuzzy as anything, could someone tell me what buttons i need to press to make the reference object not so fuzzy
This is in the latest version too

if you have uninstalled max, you need to setup your viewport drivers again to get maximal texture resolution on your reference images.

So go to customize or something like that, viewport tab, configure drivers... in the bottom select the largest texture sizes (probably 1024) for both options and/or check the "match as closely as possible" box.

Max needs to be restarted before the changes can take effect.

Ok, for some reason I cna't use the view cube with Direct X? How come and can I force it to work? I can't get the same detail on the reference image without it

and is there anyway to make the tri lines GO AWAY? Ugh I can't see my work with all the damn lines
damn it corrupted the work im doing ><
figured it out my laptop vid card is not good enough for DX10 work'
still stinks that my 1.5 days of work went down the drain
Though on the plus side the view cube came back XD
