Maya batch render & transparency
I'm using maya 8.5 rendering in mentalray draft mode. I have objects with alpha maps that also fade to being completely transparent. I did this by having the shader's transparency controlled by the maya blend utility. color one is the alpha map, and color two is completely black (for completely transparent). When i render… -
Maya Duplicate Script / Tool?
Can anyone recommend any Duplicate and Radial Array scripts for Maya that are worth checking out? I've jumped back into Maya from Modo which has some seriously good duplication tools and finding the built in "duplicate special" pretty bad, mostly because there is no live action in the viewport of what the settings do. I'm… -
[Autodesk Maya] First time in the UVs
Hello! I'm new on this forum. Maya isn't new for me, but it's my first time in the UVs. I'm actually working on a 3D model I created in Maya, and I need to create the UVs.

While I eventually worked out how to beat Maya into letting me rotate pivots, its pretty hard to get them lined up neatly on an edge.

Maya 2011 UI seems sluggish?

I've noticed for instance when opening the Hypershader there is a slight delay compared to previous versions of Maya. Same thing with some other windows. Such as when clicking the small checkboard-icon next to a shader channel. The new… -
Paint Vertex Color in Maya 2009
Hello everyone, great forum! I'm wondering how i can increase the performance of Paint vertex colors. If a mesh gets more than about 4k polys, Maya bogs so slow as to render this interface useless. I'm running a fairly butch machine: 3.4Ghz w/ Nvidia 250. Would better card even help? (yes, i have latest video drivers). Is… -
Photoshop curves, Maya equivalent in shader?
Is there a setting in a Maya shader that does the same thing as curves in Photoshop. I'd like to set up a lightmap shader for a render that would display the same as the game.

Maya 2009: Auto-update textures
Maya 2009 does not have the option to auto-refresh textures. One must manually refresh. NEX enables this feature. Is there a means of getting this feature without the need to buy and install NEX for those that only want this feature? I found this script with a search. What sucks is that the user has to manually enable the…
