Hi! I tried to make a Save Presets script, but there is a problem with reading values from ini file. Here the script:( me = getSourceFileName() dir = getFilenamePath me iniFile = dir + "mECSPV.ini" global allSavedPresets = (readValue ((getINISetting iniFile "Presets" "names") as stringStream)) global edgeToCut=#(5, 16) as…
A skinned vertex MUST always have a total weight of 1. You have to balance the weight between bones so the total weight is always 1. That's why you usually don't disable normalize unless you really know what you're doing. Usually you set rough values manually or with enveloppes, then fine tune with blend/paint. You don't…
Hey guys, I'm working with scenes where I get a 3D Object that is offset from the origin. When I use my mouse navigation in the scene, this means that the panning and scroll zooming only works as intended if my mouse is over the object I'm working with. If my mouse is ever in the negative space area of the scene, Max will…
I kinda agree with you OP. While I'm not against UV mapping, I do think some things about it sound outdated in 2015. An example is UV layout. People get criticized when their UV map contains lots of empty space, or if they don't overlap/mirror certain UV islands. I get the logic behind avoiding this but in a video game,…
My workaround has been to open the UV editor via a shelf button that adds a custom panel next to the UV toolkit. When I want to add something I look up the MEL command for it and add an entry to the list. if (`workspaceControl -exists PixelBUV`) deleteUI PixelBUV; TextureViewWindow; global proc…
How do you set the pivot point for an object to be one of its vertices? I've been looking for an answer for this for an hour now and I can't find a thing. I know I need to use the custom pivot editing tool but I can only move the pivot in relation to the grid; I can't force the object's pivot point to be set from one of…
Sorry for the necropost, but aaaaargh! I encountered the same problem with Maya 2015 SP5. It is infuriating! It somehow stopped happening after I unchecked and rechecked the Triangulate option in FBX export, but not before I redid my UV layout a couple of times. No idea whether the problem will come back or not, but so far…

While i'm working,without even touch the Modeling toolkit, when I use the new mutli-cut tool from the marque menu and finish it leaves the Modeling toolkit ON with this new manipulator which I don't want and I have to…
