Hey so today I got my second tablet (Wacom Intuos4 Medium). My first one was a bamboo but it got stolen at board school. Anyway my question is which do you prefer, Pen or Mouse mode? Pen mode is when the hotspot on the tablet represents the entire screen. Mouse mode is when the cursor moves like a mouse would. Let me know…
I'm trying to make some custom proceedural nodes for substance painter and I'm having problems using the "triplanar_greyscale" node.

Keep pushing the lighting (have you thought about a late evening, golden hour?) the materials.…
I think throwing your hands up when Maya get's it's window focus wrong is totally in order. I've come across this as well and it does seem to be an issue of Maya getting focus wrong..
