Switching from Blender to Maya 2015
So i started this tread for help on moving from blender (which i have experience in and i know pretty much all the hotkeys for modelling) to maya. at first sight maya seems quite confusing and after watching some tutorials i wondered if i could be productive using it as it seems to take many keystrokes or clicks to make… -
Re: Maya 2009: Split Edge
Just for the info, you might not need the script at all, as Autodesk added this feature in Maya 2011 (maybe 2010, not sure). Edit Mesh > Detach Component now splits edges like the Split button in Max (doesn't completely break the vertex like it used to). -
Maya Artifacts in normal maps.
For the past few days I've been trying to render a decent normal map in Maya 2009, but I keep getting weird artifacts, see picture: (Screen shots of High and Low poly in Maya, screengrab of the models in the realtime tool we use at work) I don't know what's going wrong, the same models render fine in eiter Max or xNormal,… -
3ds Max/Maya necessary for a future job in the Industry ?
Hi guys, I'm working with Maya for a while now, but I feel a lack of new features with Autodesk's 2015 softs. When I see both modo or Blender, I think that these softs have a more promising future than 3ds Max for example. Meshfusion is a good example IMHO. This is just an amazing feature. And the economical aspect is… -
Maya to Max | Hard/Soft Edges - Smoothing Groups Problem
Hi everybody! I'm currently a bit stuck, but for the past 2 days, I've been trying to move a model from Maya 2018 using Hard/Soft Edges to control the hardness of edges. Problem is when I export the model (with Game Exporter) to FBX I have had this shading problem. From my understanding, Max doesn't use Maya's hard/soft… -
Maya 2016 - Change subdiv levels in smooth mesh preview
I just got Maya 2016 and I have this issue. Whenever I smooth my mesh using smooth mesh preview it looks like subdivision level 2 is applied. Now If I recall correctly in earlier version of Maya it was level 3 subdivsion by deafult. And now if you go here:… -
Re: Camera Animation - Maya to Marmoset
I know this thread is ~2 years old but I found it while trying to solve the same issue. I thought I'd share the solution: The trick is to ignore the "Angle of View" measurement in Maya and instead copy over the focal length. So for the default Maya camera you would use ignore the "Angle of View: 54.43" and instead use… -
Re: Maya grid not drawn
I think this is just one of those random naughty-juarez-monkey problems. I put on Maya while I was waiting for the damned Alias site to accept my Maya PLE registration attempts (it simply failed based on an email error for a day), and it was Maya which wasn't drawing the grid. I assumed it was across both Maya and Maya… -
Re: [Maya] Convert triangulation to quads
I use Modo, but maybe Maya has something similar. It has a useful edge selection tool called diagonal which selects the diagonals you need to remove to go back to a quads mesh. It's not perfect but it does a good 80% of the job, the selection needs to be adjusted by hand. -
Arnorld render in Maya is black - urgent!
Hi everyone, I have this problem: I recently installed the last Maya version, it seemed to be working fine but when I wanted to render my project Arnold render was black. I was a Maya user some years ago, I have never used Arnold but I know the basics of rendering. I have cheked the "show AOVs" box, which worked for some…
