[Maya 2016] component mode with marking menu selects objects
I dare you to solve this! When I hit F8 I enter component mode and can select components only as expected. BUT, when I enter component mode by way of the marking menu, I select components along with all other object in the selection marquee. This only happens on my home computer, not my work. I could copy my prefs but that… -
Re: Transformation2D Offset function question
Thank you for your insights poopie! I'll definitely check out Igor's particle system nodes. I have a long learning curve ahead of me. I gave it a try with Pixel Processor as well as Fx-Map. With pixel processor, because I use sample gray node, it wouldnt let me alter tiling mode. With FX-map it was pretty straight forward… -
Which part of my custom code edits the weapon range?
Hey guys.... ...quick question.... Which part of my custom code edits the weapon range? As you can see in the image below, I am able to use my fire extinguisher to 'hit' a target from about 90ft, and probably more if i were able to get further back!! The image after that shows my custom weapon code (for projectile). Ive… -
Re: Bugs! We got 'em!
When using Code formatting, we see several problems: * @ symbol should be escaped. * # symbol should be escaped. * Text should not be so dark. * Syntax coloring should be supported. * Scroll bars (vertical and horizontal) would be helpful. -- This structure wraps operations specific to the Procedural Content feature struct… -

What is a good way to get better at coding?
Hey guys, so I've been trying to improve my game development skills in a variety of areas to help improve my chances of landing a job in the future. I'm currently attending (and hating) a university with my major being Computer Science. I attend class and write code a lot in my free time but I feel as if I am not ever… -
Re: The dreaded 'lockInfluenceWeights'
I feel like I'm jumping into the middle of your conversation and doing little good, but I'm just trying to help :) To be clear that code I posted should resolve the error you get when you first load one of Valve's Maya files that looks something like this: This is caused by Valve using certain proprietary formats we are… -
Re: Trying to create a liquid material contained inside glass (erlenmeyer flask?)
Well, first thing comes to mind is this (note I'll be talking about a procedural, feel free to use textures as you see fit). Also, I'm going for the most expensive solution, but hopefully you can come up with your cheaper solution since the basic idea applies. Change material type to Translucent. Take a TexCoord node and… -
Maya RANDOMLY inverting Normal maps
While using Arnold in Maya, I faced an unusual problem: There are 32 teeth models in the project (16 upper and 16 lower). I use 4 UDIM maps; one for each eight teeth. For some reason, Maya visually inverts the Normal maps along the Y axis ONLY for the lower teeth, while the upper teeth remain as they should (in the final… -
Creating a Star Citizen UI in Unreal (Help)
Hi All, I'm trying my best to understand how to replicate two styles of UI in Unreal Engine. The first being the FPS mode and the second being the spaceship cockpit. My inspiration is Star Citizen since I think its simple, to the point, and looks good. Star Citizen FPS https://youtu.be/F0r7BaKK9Cg?t=173 Star Citizen…
