Maya have bad habit on affecting subcomponent from right-click menu on anything that cursor happen to be. Is there way to force subcomponent selection only to object I have currently selected/active regardless of where the cursor is ?
Hey all, I'm a bit confused with creating the high poly of one of my objects - I'm getting a pinching effect on the circle due to the parts which protrude out of it. I've created a quick graphic to illustrate my problem. Any advice would be appreciated on fixing it. I've tried fixing it above like so, but it's still going…
Cool. 3dcoat once was my favorite soft for materials . Not sure why it all still look so complicated although. I would prefer just a single node flow and layers just as an ability to quickly switch on and off certain node brunches. Also very much hope the base noises are not only UV projected or triplanar blurry . A true…
Instead of having 1 object with 2 uv sets, make 2 objects with both of em having only one uv set. Than bake the colors of the one with the ramp to the one with the proper uv's.
Hello. For some reason in my scene, some of my objects are not showing up in the render. I checked the vis options and layer options and everything looks fine. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/694/renderproblem.jpg/ Please help! Cheers
Ah, actually I have having the opposite problem. It always returns false. I had only tested concave objects previously. It seems to be a caching issue. Whatever was first returned per object the answer will remain until the max file is reloaded. (I tried gc, but it didn't work.) This is a terrible workaround, but it seems…
Depth cues is really the most obvious answer. Repeating elements receding into the distance or converging parallel lines (like tall buildings), putting clouds between your flying object and the floor is another example. Also cast shadows from the object in the sky onto the floor. If this is just pre-viz for a game with a…
Hi everyone, So I'm curious, when you create props and other objects for 3D Environments, do you always use reference images while 3D modeling? I would think if it's an environment that doesn't really exist within our world, more like a fictional world, then we wouldn't be able to use reference images as much. Or am I…
So I'm trying to create something like this in Maya using the Arnold Renderer filled in a simple room scene with around 80-100 of different picture images in a folder that has the same resolution. The material information would be the same but the only difference would be that the source image of the texture for each of…
