I’ve tried to add a glow effect to and object and it works with the regular surface shader, however, when you try to get a glow effect using vray, it doesn’t work, it just illuminates stuff around it like a regular light. Anyone know how to use Vray (specifically and only with Maya) to create a glow effect radiating around…
Hi I am having problem with installation of Cryteck Exporter for maya... I have followed the process many time as per the docs.cryengine.com and a video, but still can't resolve any problem.. Here is the Link of Doc -> http://docs.cryengine.com/display/SDKDOC2/Installing+the+Maya+Tools And Video i followed -> [ame]…
So I'm messing with maya and one thing just freaks me out. I got used to orthographic user view because it's more precise when dealing with hard surface objects. So I turned on "orthographic" option in camera attributes and also disabled lock in tumble tool options. And everything was fine until I tried to look at my model…
Hey Peeps. Have a problem with UV not displaying in the UV editor. Have searched hi and low for an answer and tried investigating UV sets but the problem still occurs. I am using models from kitbash sets. Have tried exporting and importing into a fresh scene assigning new materials, deleting history. Can sometimes view the…
I've had this problem for quite a while. The only version of Maya that it seems to be okay on is Maya 2012 using FBX Plug in version 2012.1.1. Maya 2013/2014 crashes about every other export which is highly frustrating to say the least. Hope this helps anyone else.
Hey there! I wanted to share with you a plugin I recently finished for instancing objects along a curve in Maya. It is done with the Maya API, so it is more efficient and usable than other approaches. C&C appreciated! Demo: Download Link: http://mmerchante.github.io/instanceAlongCurve/ More info:…
Posting this here because this tool is for 3D artists, doesn't make sense to share this in the coding forum because tech artists and coders aren't interested in what I'm working on, but artists usually are. Coming soon! Increase Shelf Height Toolbox for Maya. Shelf height is maintained after Maya restart too.
Hey guys sorry to post such a simple (i hope) question here but does anyone know of a way to snap an object to another object in maya that also snaps the rotation? Long story short I cant apply a constraint as im animating a hand thats jumping between alot of stuff (grab here an there etc) and ive also animated at other…
Hello, i am working on a project where we are "fighting" with getting a good workflow for the shading between maya and unity. Simply said: what we see in Maya is very different from what we see in Unity. Of course there are several factors to this (shaders, textures interpretation, lights etc) but i thought i could ask…
Hi guys, I crafted another video tutorial on Maya Python scripting. This time I am going through step by step how to create a tool for constraint one object to a poly surface with a follicle. Take a look if you are interested in scripting for Maya: https://vimeo.com/137386161 The script is downloadable from here:…
