4.5 is a first step into a material-based workflow, we've worked pretty hard on laying the foundations in this release but there's more to come out course :) I'd definitely recommend giving it another go, especially if it's been some time since you tried it. I remember getting a trial some years back to have a go and just…
Its that time again for me. Do not remember if i ever cell shaded anything but his was too much fun. Had to customize a shader and i heard there was issues with using certain things, i did not run into any, 1st time "custom node shadering", let me know if i should leave things like this or try to freshen up the styling.…
Hi guys, I'm starting to learn about Python and coding in Maya, and immediately, I have a first project to work along with this lesson. I am trying to replicate the same user interface as Modifier Panel in 3ds studio max. I got most of the stuff to work right, but the issue comes in where the Layout doesn't change…

Later versions will include the ability to add/remove and…
I'm working on a project that I'm pretty far with in dDO, but I want to try adding some normal detail by painting on the model. I don't really see an easy way of going about doing this. If I open up dDO and load the project, and then load up nDO. All nDO then wants to do is convert my active layers. Am I missing something…
