About three years ago, I had to learn Maya after seven years of using Max. It was quite painful because I ran into a lot of Maya's quirks and bugs early on. This isn't to say that Maya has more bugs than Max, it's just that I ran head-on into them due to the nature of my work. After six months or so, I found fixes for the…

I'm curious how the whole high-poly / low-poly mouth bag thing will work. I think Pavovlich has something covering that with his "creature sculpting" tutorial chain, I'll see If i can…
Hello! I am starting my first big project! I have done several smaller projects to get the prop workflow down. Now that I have a decent understanding, its time to make a project that I can chew on for awhile as I search for a job. I am making The Yawning Portal from dungeons & dragons.

@Neox, I had a thought on your crowd issue, I set up a path that resembled yours with a hole in the floor, and a step up. When I opened PIE and let the crowd spawn they got stuck at the step and wouldn't climb up it.
