Create Mental Ray Node
I wish I knew someone who knew Maya so I didn't have to post small questions like this but... Does anyone know how I can get the Create Mental Ray Node to appear? I'm trying to do an ao bake on my object and I can't switch to the Create Mental Ray Node. -
Re: 3ds Max 2012 Hot Fix announced
I don't know if the tired old "spaghetti code" argument holds as much water as it has in the past. They rewrote the viewport code this time around. Their plans for the UI are fundamental shifts away from the old code max has been using. I don't really see them tacking on a bunch of new stuff but they seem to be replacing… -
How do you cope with your school being a "Degree Mill"?
I had begun to mention this in another thread but I felt this deserved its own topic since I'm sure I'm not the only one to have had this happen to them. I attended a privatized Art School and earned a Bachelor's degree in early 2015. When I did my initial research, things seemed pretty legit, the instructors were current… -

Re: [CE3] Banana Farm Environment

Re: [WIP] Blender Hair card workflow
I just use particle hair, convert ti to cards with hair tool addon, then sculpt the cards further. works ok, but never quite perfect Blenders new hair oprions are pretty good too ie geometry nodes, but I am not keen to switch over completely yet hair tools addon has its own shader with a nice anisotropic look -
BlendColors node in Maya doesn't support V-RayMtl?
So I'm currently attempting to create a realistic eye using a specific workflow that uses masks: The one I chose to follow was this one by: https://gumroad.com/tomnewbury He said that this method can be used with other renderers and for my project I'm currently using V-Ray. So from reading the title you can see that I'm… -
Re: video cards
I don’t think it comes in 24gb, just 16gb. Which should be plenty for 3d art and modeling. It’s sometimes nice to have some kind of constraint rather than like unlimited resources so that you know that what you’re building is also optimized as well. -
Re: Cycle Between Selection Modes, with single button, Maya
I don't understand what benefit you could get from having this on a toggle. The hotkeys already exist by default so surely having each component mode on its own key is faster than toggling (e.g. to go from one mode to the one before it in the toggle list you have to cycle through all of them). As TeriyakiStyle said, on a…
