Hiya , I am an art student working towards hopefully becoming a concept artist one day. when it comes to general drawing and perspective I feel very comfortable when it comes to drawing figures and isolated objects and props such as vehicles and props etc. My main weakness has always been drawing environments and… -
Rigging Question: Getting Layered Texture Node To Work with Transparency
I posted this originally on reddit but I'm posting it here too. I am working on a character rig that is driven by animated textures and I am running into problems with the layered texture node. Here's some gifs to help you understand what I'm trying to do: http://gph.is/2vBPB4S http://gph.is/2vBkCGq What I am trying to do… -
Re: Maya - Smooth Mesh preview
and here is my piece of code. assign it to a hotkey and you're fine. with pageUp/pageDown you can toggle the level, when your mesh is in smooth preview mode. // toggle smooth mesh preview for selection // get selected mesh nodes string $sel[] = `ls -sl -dag -lf`; // set attributes for ($s in $sel) { int $v = `getAttr… -
Re: Workslime
Definitely, I come across this every single day. I can code and script/automate my way through life, but most workflow things over here are engine fixes that I can not fix myself.

Re: [maya] Disable Component in object/component mode
I'm a little confused about what you're asking here, maybe it's a difference in how you and i work. Personally I only use F8 when I want to work on multiple objects in component mode. To move between modes, I use the standard right click marking menu in a quick snap motion. For example, I'm in vertex mode on object A, and… -
using splines to create roots in an environment?
Hey guys! I'm currently working on an environment that is set under the ground in a catacomb/cellar. I want to make roots come down from the cieling and cling to the walls and pillars in the room. I'm looking for a way to avoid modelling every single root in Maya and placing them on the exact correct spot in Unreal…
