Re: Maya LT
Bellsey: It's a dick-move for anyone who does want to use the software for a longer amount of time, because any lower-level company or freelancer will end up paying much more than they would if they'd just buy it. These people don't upgrade to the latest superficially different version, because that's just not… -

Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
Hi guys, I'm on maya 2011 at work, and i'm encountering an issue i never had on maya 2009. Whenever i triangulate a quad or flip an edge, another polygon of the mesh just has its uvs vanish (it doesn't happen if i triangulate the whole mesh) Is anyone getting the same issue? It starting to seriously piss me off... (And… -

Re: Wrinklemaps in 3D Studio Max
Thanx a bunch man! So they come forth mainly in gaming engines, I take it they are script based/controlled? If so, is there no way to recreate that in Max? I have max 2009 32bit, and I render using mental ray (testing the finalRender renderer now, and I like). Is there a way to let the renderer know when to make the… -
Re: HELP!! Maya viewport shading error
This likely has to do with your camera's near- and far-clip plane values. Usually this happens when you switch between measurement settings and/or have unusually large-scale objects compared to the unit size. Select your perspective camera from the Outliner to find the clip plane fields. A good nearclip value is between… -

Re: PolyCount GDC meet up (Update nov 20)
I've gone for the past three years and enjoyed it. Got my job at the last one Unfortunately I'm not going this year, as my company isn't going to send me and the incentive to drop $2,000 when I already have a job I love is pretty low. I guess I need to come up with a speech for GDC 2009 so I can get in for free. -

Re: Opacity map not displaying properly in Viewport (Max)
Probably just the viewport setting. Right click the label in the upper left of the viewport and set the transparency to Best. On 2009+ its the last label on the right. If that doesn't help its probably your viewport texture settings. Customize > Preferances > Viewports Tab > Configure Driver. Turning off AA might speed up…
