Re: [Maya] Translate/Snap objects with different pivots without grouping?
Caught red handed. Was bored and looking for something to do. Besides, you bought my tools so that's strong encouragement for me to help a brother out. :p This code should work even better. This will put the locator at the pivot location of the first selected object. //Select all the objects you want to constrain and run… -
Maya 2016 Target Weld Issue
Maya 2016's target weld behaves differently from previous Maya versions. When you select verts in vertex mode it remembers the selection. Now when you use the target weld tool, it automatically goes back to selecting the vertices that were previously selected in vertex mode. This is a problem because sometimes you switch… -

Maya Interactive Boolean Tool - Exposing Maya's Procedural Booleans
Hey guys, after seeing a thread about revealing the input object for a Boolean in Maya, i realised that Maya had procedural Booleans under the hood (athough not 100% bulletproof). So I went to work making a script that i would love to use, and that others could use. This script doesn't add any new functionality to Maya it… -
Re: Maya jTools
Well, I've suspected something like that - they're a bit confusing from the beginning, and i probably need to make some more informal introduction into these tools. Let me then introduce myself first: my name is Alexander "Joss" Khalyavin, i'm Maya tech artist/developer with ~16 years of Maya experience. Autodesk Maya… -
Re: Maya Script for custom editing vertex normal
I got you buddy :smile: Select any number of face vertices, the first being that which you want to copy from. Run the MEL script below. This will copy the normal direction from the first face vertex to all other selected. Code is commented so you can see what I'm doing to get there. Hope this works for you :) //Enables… -
Re: Can I get some 3ds max to Modo tips?
Re: tools most tools are by default click to activate. You can change tools to auto-activate though, so simply selecting the tool will make it active. This can be done from the tool pipeline, which by default layout is on the right hand side under the "lists" tab. That's also a good way to check what tools / constraints… -
Re: Discussion: Increasing your speed with highpoly hard-surface modeling
For those that use Maya, here's a script I wrote a while back that does the same thing: //name: QuadConnect//by: PolyhertzstartQuadConnect;global proc startQuadConnect (){global string $curObj[], $vrts2Tweak[];string $origList[];$origList = `ls -sl -fl`;$edjList = `filterExpand -ex 1 -sm 32`;polySplitRing -stp 2 -div… -
"Uncanny" effect more resolution and details we put in a frame .
I'd like to hear opinions on what I somehow noticed maybe not in every but many recent games as a trend. I mean not an exactly same "uncanny valley " people discussed decade ago about Beowoolf and Polar express and imo related mostly to animation but rather more subtle, more general thing a picture get after crossing… -
Re: Normal Tools for Max Released
Eric asked me to load some images for Normal Tools. Here are some of the graphics that explain some of the tools. Clicking the image should load a larger version. Selection Functions: you can select all Border Normals. You can also force a sub-selection of currently selected normals to filter out non-border normals. There…
