Maya RANDOMLY inverting Normal maps
While using Arnold in Maya, I faced an unusual problem: There are 32 teeth models in the project (16 upper and 16 lower). I use 4 UDIM maps; one for each eight teeth. For some reason, Maya visually inverts the Normal maps along the Y axis ONLY for the lower teeth, while the upper teeth remain as they should (in the final… -
Re: how to export max (2010) animation (to maya) ...and output it to marmoset toolbag?
thanks Piflik, I exported the animation in .fbx format, but when I import it to maya and try to play it, looks like all the pivot points are messed up, so the animation is not working.

Re: Maya 2020
Yeah, i received the notification on my email this morning. The problem is that 95 % of the new features are for animators and riggers.

Re: Is Maya taking over Max?
I think most people are sticking to the subject. It's probably best to leave personal opinions about which app you like more out of the discussion and just say which one (or ones) your company uses. I did some research in the Seattle area and there's definitely a Maya bias. Here's my findings: Amaze Entertainment: Art Lead… -
Re: Maya - Advanced Skeleton - Custom Controllers / Driving Systems issues
@SeveredScion i took a quick watch but I'd need to go through the steps myself in order to possibly pick up on any mistakes that may have been made. I might be able to do that in a couple days but there is a few quick thoughts might be worth considering: * the bad elbow deformation can be fixed with more careful skinning.… -

hahaha - nope It was definately released. It's confusing because they for some reason have two different games with Age of Pirates in the title. Captain Blood has yet to be released, but Age of Pirates is out - I bought it. Thank you very much for the reply! I guess I'm going to have to track down maya 4.5 somehow... I… -
