No one: Autodesk: what even are polygons? I did a search and didn't come up with anything I was satisfied with, as they just want to figure out how to get quads through to Maya from max with FBX. But triangulation is important and packages/engines do it differently, as well as is preserving where the invisible triangles…
For our next project, an interactive health & safety training experience for the Oculus Quest, we're looking for support in Character Animation, Character Art and Level Art (Prop Modelling & Level Dressing). We will need a few character models along with some props to dress them with in order to create a bit of variety…
Hi everyone First time poster here, but have been lurking, looking at the awesome work on this site for some time. I did this work as a personal project a few years ago now. The idea was to try and accurately model a real cathedral interior, based off photographs using Photogrammetry as a basis, but the main modeling work…
how would i go about requesting a 3dsmax modifier that i think could be fairly beneficial/time saving? i'm aware there are some tech artists here who could do it but i don't know any of you well enough (sorry) to ask personally. and i feel like if i post it on the autodesk forums it'll just be lost in the noise. what i…
This is a tutorial where I demo a simple setup for getting paint color selection and decal selection working in your vehicle select menus. This is geared towards a racing game setup, but the same techniques will work in any game where you want to swap textures on a character or model or add decals to that model. This…

Hey, so i have always used Maya instancing a lot when creation characters. But it seems that since 2016 ext 2 it has been broken, meaning it crashes to the point where its unusable. I have been having this problem for a long time, but i haven't found others with the same problem. I have tried it on colleagues computers, my…
Hi guys, I'm working with Maya for a while now, but I feel a lack of new features with Autodesk's 2015 softs. When I see both modo or Blender, I think that these softs have a more promising future than 3ds Max for example. Meshfusion is a good example IMHO. This is just an amazing feature. And the economical aspect is…
Hi guys I recently moved to London and want to expand my 3d art skills/career by getting myself involved with a community and adding a social element to my learning. I'm a much better socialiser in physical format than in forum threads so having someone to learn from and just chat about 3d art with in a bar or cafe would…
I'm sure this is just one of Maya's quirks that I haven't learned how to deal with yet, but whenever I try to Smooth a polygon mesh, it selects all the faces of the model, but doesn't smooth anything. At first this only happened when I had the "exponential" smooth setting on, but now the same things going with linear…
