This group already employs a solid artist staff, but they are looking for a few more…
Yeah, built my system a few weeks ago. It's a Intel 2600K 3.4Ghz, 8Gigs of ram and a 460Gtx 768Mg card in it. And a SSD 64Gb as system drive. Now i got this super annoying lag when i select something in Maya viewport. It's a bit random but 3/10 times i get a lag when i select anything in the viewport. Ofc i tried to change…
Hello, I've been searching into this on google, but haven't found anything useful. I have a multi monitor set-up and I would like to split some of Maya's windows/viewports between them. But when ever I restart Maya, they all go back to being on the 1st monitor Saving my prefs doesn't seem to do anything about this either.…
I changed some options in different places, turned Maya off and on couple of times and everything started to work again. But honestly I don't know what brought it back. I didn't touch anything in tools options. I've never seen soft selection on my eyes before but I played with it a little and it looks like that was it.…
Fixed jbUnityTools to now have correctly scaled and dynamicly scaling windows in Maya 2015. Also tested in Maya 2012, 2013 and 2014.

It's a funny philosophy I adopted early on (thanks to an old…

Well transparency in Maya's viewport has never been an issue-free feature. Can't you find a workaround to using ambient lights? Maybe a cube map for ambient lighting? Point lights with quadratic falloff and low intensity (relative to their distance from target)?
Does seem weird to me that a smaller app isn't more focused on the games market. Maybe architectural renders etc are where the big bucks are - but I'm still waiting for a modeller, baker and painter that are designed for our industry rather than for films and tv then adapted (zbrush and texturing for example or maya/max's…
I changed your thread title from "Mental Ray Fundamentals Tutorial Search" to "mental ray in Maya - fundamentals tutorials?" which should help you get better answers from people. "mental ray" is always lower-case, using the right grammar shows you've done your homework, and when people see you're diligent about things like…
