[Maya] How to scale these free online rigs (Mery and Ray)?
For my animation class, I chose to use two free rigs I found online, Mery and CGTarian's Ray. I ran into a problem where one of the characters was much larger than the other but I couldn't find a way to scale either of them. Neither of them had global controls or anything I could use to properly change their size when I… -
To RAID or not to RAID
I've got three 1 terabyte HDDs and Win7 64 bit. I'm thinking of doing a reformat and setting it up as a RAID 0 (Striping only) and having an online and offline backup set for my data files. Is the speed increase and efficiency of striping worth it? The apps I use are 3dsMax2012, Mudbox, Sculptris, Photoshop, Sketchbook… -
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. -

It lacks detail, the normal still looks flat in the… -

I'm working on this freeze ray idea i came up with. The upper part of it shoots out the ray to freeze people then the lower barrel can shoot out a metal slug to shatter the frozen person. If anyone has any ideas on how i can make it look a little better that would be great! I'm trying to figure out a good way to connect… -

Baking AO with Mental Ray ...... HELL!!
Hi there again! So I've been able to bake AO using the Skylight method in 3DS max 2012.:) However, the results are not as good as Mental ray. The skylight method would always leave a light rim in corners using intersecting geometry. MR does not. I've been experimenting with MR and the big trouble I'm having with it right… -
Re: 3DS Max - Best learning resource for V-Ray?
http://mographplus.com/product/the-ultimate-introduction-to-v-ray-for-3ds-max/ I have not used this course but I have watched several of his youtube videos. He goes into pretty in-depth concepts which you may miss in a lot of tutorials. Vray seems to be difficult to find good tutorials. It's either "this is what every… -
Re: Rendering Wireframe on model using Mental Ray in Maya problem
