Rendering with maya / vray causing system slowdown
Hi All I`m running a new(ish) PC with a Intel Core i7-2600K and 8Gb ram and i`m finding rendering in maya is causing the system to go really sluggish (mouse stuttering).

3DS Max Composite Map/Layer node in Maya
Hi, I can't find equivalent 3ds max composite map/layer node in Maya for rendering in V-Ray. V-ray Blend isn't what I exactly need, because this simply blend 2 materials and I need multiply, add, etc. or another blend type as we know from photoshop. Can me help me ? Thank you. -
Re: Bake 16 or 32 bit displacement in Maya?
Can't find that in the prefs menu, and tiff is 8bit by default for me.... This is beyond my maya knowledge too =( Do you know how to do that? Is it something I can do from transfer maps? Looks like this just goes over baking a disp and rendering in maya, thanks though. -
Re: [maya] adding outlines to a finished character
Does this need to exported to a game engine or will you do a render in Maya? If it's a game engine you can do the invert-and-inflate trick through a shader, or a post effect like Obscura suggested. For Maya you could use something like a MentalRay Contour shader (if you're on 2017+ I assume Arnold has something similar),… -

Maya - Straighten UV borders
Hello! I made this model and I would like to add some details in ZBrush. In order to make displacement looks right, I need to make the UV borders straight. I tried the "straighten border" tool available in Maya but it's quite time consuming to select every border and make them straight. And if I want to unfold it later, I… -

Maya to Marmoset animation not looping !???
Hi folks, So I have a character with a looping idle animation within Maya, but in Marmoset is doesn't loop. It does only seem to loop when i enlarge the timeline length with a big proportion, but the problem is that it will reach the end of the timeline anyway and from that point on wont combine with the beginning, so…
