My friend and I have been slowly developing a new tower defense game with the C4 engine, tentatively called Monsters, in our free time and now we're looking for some outside help. The basic idea is you control a pirate ship manned by Monsters, sailing around on an alien planet looking for treasure. But every time your ship…
Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate it. Yes I'm aware that the vert order may change. I've prepared for that :) Just needed to know if there's a way to basically point to a node and store it to a variable such that later on I could place it again on the object. I'm sure Maya isn't built for this but there could be…
It is a lot about being able to communicate between artist and programmers. The better you can communicate with them, the better you know what the problem is that you have to solve. Scripting skills are a must for tech artist. Maxscript, python, mel, ... C++ can be helpful if you need to program a plugin or exporter. But…
Just create a folder name BPT and place it somewhere memorable. Extract the contents of the .rar to the folder you just created. Copy the .moduale file from the folder into your maya moduals folder (normally were maya is installed, otherwise do a search for the folder,) edit the moduale file with a text editor and change…
I think it's a little bit pathetic to add plugins for source/ Unreal/ Crysis when the developers of those engines work internally with other tools anyway (except valve perhaps not sure though). For example crytek has a lot of custom maxscripts to export or prepare certain stuff for their engine because they added so much…
Was mostly wondering why that script would be so valuable. I don't have any real interest in 3ds right now, but was curious whether it's a more efficient workflow, or just useful for people who are used to the max way. On the original topic, i'd recommend to anyone learning maya the first two chapters of 'Complete maya…
Hey all, I've been slowly working on and off on this script for a while and I've been having a helluva time getting people to test it. Fortunately Tacit Math and StJoris have lent me a hand in doing so and I think it's about ready to be released now. FBsaveSelection is a script that tries to mimic the behaviour of 3ds max…

Hi, i have big problem for me, i dont have any backup and when open my scene maya freeze (whole pc are slow). Scene contains LPs and HPs and mb file has 320MB and ma file has 575MB. Maya only freze when only opening this specific file, if I open something else then works great. I cant copy paste error because maya is…
Had the same issue. Edited the scratch disk to my secondary HDD and it's fine. It's only temp files for the working session, it gets deleted when you quit ZB. And the mem issue, try compacting the mem (in preferences), if you still see ZB is eating everything then lower the compact mem slider - will basically tell ZB to…
