hi, I wanna search for intersecting faces between two objects, and then delete or select them. I know Boolean can be similar, but the results I want is to avoid creating more Tris. I just want to select the components that intersect in the original objects. I thought it was a very simple and universal appeal when you're…
Maya has been aggravating me for way too long now and I'm trying to customize it. So far, I've happily changed the colours, a few settings here and there and got rid of some menus that I didn't use. But there are some things that I'd love to change, but haven't found any options for so far... which, considering Maya's…
Yeah, reverted in Maya. - Modify uvs in maya > export > uvs reverted to previous state (i'd say before i start editing uvs, unlimited number of actions) - Modify uvs in maya > save > close maya and restart > uvs reverted. Really strange T_T
Important things for max users to know about maya.. Maya doesn't clean up after itself. Maya let's you make shit geometry. History does not mean non-destructive, it just means it's dirty. If you want less crap in your outliner tell it to display only dag objects The reason it broke after you mirrored is that you didn't…
I'm getting into low poly stuff and I want to know if there's a way to paint directly onto the model in maya. Since it's low poly and I'm only using single colors then the UV Unwrapping process is really time consuming and pointless if I could just paint onto the model. I know blender has this function so does Maya as well?

i just got an internship at SOE and i need to brush up on my maya skills (unwrapping in particular) before i start. My two biggest questions as of right now is how to render out a rectangular texture and how to offset overlapped uvs in maya. Thanks
Heya Polycount, I've run into this problem which I cant really find a solution to, or even a reason why it's acting like it does. What I've done is I've tried to create a dynamic hair curve to control the movement of two ears on a characters skeleton. I did manage to follow a tutorial on how to accomplish this with the…
Apparently Autodesk for the win? I'm trying out Maya8 today and I'll post the features I find useful for those interested. 1. alpha textures now sort correctly in the viewport so you can model trees. 2. the split polygon tool can now jump past edges and split right across them. 3. normal maps can be rendered in mentayray…
