      Grats Ruz! I am working on trying to get a freelance gig myself. My wife takes care of her Grandma with dementia so I am unable to relocate and there isn't much locally for work.

      Sounds like a conspiracy... ...or an RPG plot. "The local <insert wildlife> are acting strange and aggressive, it couldn't be that the dark lord misplaced his artifact of unimaginable power when he was here for burgers last week, could it?!"

      you must be very lucky then :p I run into this issue frequently. Maya face extrude seems to hate geo thats doesnt have uniform faces or organic surfaces. the local translate usually will be ok, but thickness is the buggy one.

      Hi SlyRipper, The turret doesn't work with a simple look at command since it needs two joints to orient itself. In order to aim it needs to rotate around two diffent constrained pivots. Y for the base, and local X + Y for the head.

      Absolutely gorgeous work. I gotta say, I'd buy the game if all it provided me with was a place this beautiful to explore. Just walk around, look at things, maybe chat with the locals a bit, sit down on a meadow and watch the clouds.

      Thanks man! I was going to mention that a local company uses Maya instead of Max (I was taught Max) and that this is perfect to kick start me into Maya, and then I realized you work at that company =P Happy Birthday and thanks again.

      The problem is that you compare float values directly. Use this instead: if distance cV1 cV2 > 0.001 do appendIfUnique aDV i And read this: Comparing float values, by Swordslayer. And make all variables from the first 11 rows local.
