Cel-Shading WIP
Hey everyone, I need a little help on getting the black outline around my models to make the cel shade complete. Duplicating the mesh and reversing the normals is not going to work so well here. Anyone know of a good technique? -
Re: Maya ShaderFX Question
Hi Matt, If the information you want to pass into the shader is not readily available as an existing node, you can always use a float, float3, etc value. Expose it and then add an expression, set-driven-key, mel script or whatever to it to get the value into the shader. E.g. lets say we did not have camera-fov and you… -
Re: The culinary atrocity thread
I came up with a little dish a while back. Called "hotdog salad", it is like fruit salad, except with a variety of hotdogs.

Re: maya 2015 (..or prior) hotkeys to maya 2016! help please
I believe once you run 2016 for the first time it should generate a .mel file for hotkeys under \\Documents\maya\2016\prefs\hotkeys. From there you can just overwrite your old hotkey .mel file with the one from 2015 (as well as your userRuntimeCommands.mel and userNamedCommands.mel from the prefs directory). Make sure Maya… -

Re: Protecting SmoothFace history
I should also add that you can delete specific inputs via the command line as well. It's in the lower right side where it says MEL. Just type delete "name of input" without the quotation marks.

Re: Maya LT vs. Blender (and some other questions too)
This might be true even though for what you need you might find LT good enough. Most troubles that you could get down the road is regarding scripts, whether that is simple MEL scripts or Python. Even though LT suports MEL, lots of people are usually making scripts in full Maya and it can happen using under the hood stuff… -
