What would be the best way to achieve a super low poly look like this in Max? I have the low poly model, but if I want that (lack of) lighting, that aliasing, basically that 'retro' rendered finish?

>>	Anonymous Sat May 23 21:24:22 2015 No.477148 >>477134 To create that flat lighting, use a single ambient light. You can use a direct light or plane image to generate the shadow(s).

Some shaders clearly react to dynamic lights. These are the eyeballs and fishbowl for direct specular reflection. How do I know this?

1) Multiple specular highlights in the shiny areas that matches the shadow direction.
2)There is a shadow in the scene.

Everyone else ITT is trollin

The shadow is a mesh; it doesn't match the shape of the model at all.
>Some shaders clearly react to dynamic lights
What dynamic lights?
If there were specular highlights in the gif they would change based on the surface angle relative to the camera as it rotates, and clearly they aren't moving at all.
You're using lighting consistency in baked textures as evidence of shaded highlights. Fucking idiot.

Only troll in here is you, or you're just a complete moron like all the others in this thread shitposting.

Achieving this look literally has nothing to do with lighting. If your material is 100% ambient, with spec/reflection disabled, such as OPs pic, it doesn't matter what lighting conditions it's under; it will always appear as flat and unshaded unshaded.

This is the worst board on 4chan because trying to help someone usually results in people calling others an idiot while they contribute nothing else to the conversation. That's not to say I expect people to be nice, but I think they should at least be constructive.

OP asked how to do something in Max, and did probaby read the rules and not ask which program is superior. Yet this anon comes out of nowhere and tells OP to switch program. How the fuck is switching program going to solve OP's problem? If you can't help OP in his program of choice then dont fucking comment, you piece of trash. It's not even a valid piece of shilling, it's just anon talking out his ass again. Maya, Max, Blender - who fucking cares? You're worse than religious missionairies. It is people like you who make /3/ the shittiest board on the site.

Yes I am fucking pissed that this place, which could have so much potential for aspiring modellers and artists, is so full of morons who think their whatever choice of software is the best and shills it at every given thread. Fuck you and fuck your shit. Anon out.

>>	Anonymous Tue May 26 00:52:38 2015 No.477423 >>477399 I'm not sure about the shadow but on the ground, but this looks 100% textured. Including the speculars on the eyes and the character's hat thing. The bottle probably has a transparent material on it.

>>477423
If the bottle had a transparent material you would've seen the arm and the boy trough it, it's clearly inverted normals so we see the inside rather the outside of it.

And yes there is nothing going on with the shader, that is 100% flat-lit texture.

I fucking answered it in the first 5 posts.
It doesn't matter what fucking lights you use.
Make a fucking lambert, set the ambient colour to max, set the diffuse to min. Turn filtering off on your texture, and use a pixel art texture. Turn filtering and AA off in your render settings.

This is such basic shit, the level of retardation in this thread is embarrassing.

>Make a fucking lambert,
why make a lambert at all, you dont need NdotL. Just make a constant shader.

>Turn filtering off on your texture
Textures always have to be filtered, either linearlly, nearest pixel, or anisotropically.

>This is such basic shit, the level of retardation in this thread is embarrassing.
You're the only one embarrassing themselves.

i come from blender and have never touched max so i'm not sure if it's the same thing in that prog or not but that how it's achieved in blender.

just one check box in the world tab.

Some people posting in this thread are amazing. They must be all like "I don't know anything, but I'm gonna type this post"
Then they type it and inspects it's content and be all like "I don't know what the words I typed even is supposed to mean but I'm so gonna press that send button"

Here's an idea: If you're not absolutely sure you know what you're talking about, refrain from posting. You just generate meaningless noise for anyone interested
in the answer will have to filter trough. The correct answer have been posted several times ITT, but how's a newbie supposed to know who's full of shit and who isn't?
