Maya 2012 change border edge colour?
Is it possible to make border edges a different colour. I know that you can make them thicker than regular edges, but I'd like them to be a different colour. -
Beveling Hard Edges In Maya
Am I missing something in Maya? I model in polygons and use edge loops to define my hard edges. Then do a smooth to get that sub-d appearance. Whenever I select my hard edges in Maya and preform a Bevel on it, it completely messes up my edge flow and gives me N-gons everywhere. But I also must ask, If you are putting a… -
Re: Futuristic Props
You can reinforce your edges to maintain hard edges as in the image below The left box has reinforced edges which maintains the shape of the cube (The last image shows the corner on how these edges are layed out) The second cube just uses chamfered edges which gives a rounder cube. And the last has no edge reinforcement… -
Re: Maya, Can't bevel/copy and edge
it's the ngon causing your problem, maya doesn't know how it should be making the new edge(such as how many edges and verts should be in it) just select the edge ring and do a connect, if you need it to match the exact angle of the pre-existing edge, just do a edge slide, and slide it right into the orgianl edge, than pull… -
Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
@wirrexx rules for hard edges. Adjacent faces are 90 degrees or more. Any edge that is hard MUST be a UV border edge. -
Re: maya looping, harden/soften edge

Re: Need help with character model in Maya

Re: Any tips on aligning messy topography?
For the wavy edge loop I'd remove the edges that are causing the kinks then re-make them using connect edges and connect vertexes. -
blender uv island align
Another blender question: is there a way to align uv island from an edge ? imagine a rectangle rotated, you select one edge and it rotates the island so the edge is now orientated horizontally or vertically. -
Not sure how this edge selection turns into this
on CGTuts, there's a tutorial that demonstrates making a selection of edges and turns them into a ring of edges. I kinda know how to do it manually by adding tracing a circle and adding cuts, but this is really confusing.
