Maya Skin Paint Tool and Backface Cull

Guedin · Oct 2014

Hi guys,

I'm new in Maya and I was wondering if there was a way to paint skin weight even on vertices that is not facing the camera. By default it seems like it there's a backface mask on and I can't find a way to disable it.
I got a thin piece of cloth to skin, and it's a bit of a pain right now.
Thanks a lot !

To paint vertex that is not facing your camera, i think you gonna need to get inside the mesh, and paint (pain in the ass). Have been painting weights for a while now, never found a good way to paint those nasty vertices inside the mesh. Try to get rid of them, deleting inside meshes that wont be visible.

That's a bummer

I guess I'll have to do make it without it. I wonder if a script or something exist for this
