I have looked for a while online and couldn't find an answer, I'm not even sure if it is possible. I am in maya 2011 and using the sculpt geometry tool on a very high poly vehicle. Is it possible for me to use the smooth setting but so it dosn't effect a specific edge (lets say the wheel arch for example, or something that…
latest hi, i'll try making this one: http://www.jimbodetools.com/The-Tool-Find-of-the-Century-Solid-Ebony-Number-112-Center-Wheel-Plow-Plane-by-OHIO-TOOL-CO-One-of-Three-Known-p36059.html did the base mesh: next step: sculpting the details and texturing the albedo in mari with ptex, making the low, baking the NM, and…
Hi, I'm not sure if this goes in here or in technical talk, but it doesn't seem technical enough so I'll just put it here. In my Maya 2012, hovering above any tool does not seem to cause the name of the tool nor their functions to pop up in a small white textbox like they normally do. Did I accidentally turn some setting…
I got all exited when I found a version of Bonus Tools for 8.5 is meant to have preserve uvs. This could save me a tonne of time, but I can't get the thing to work.. The python script doesn't even seem to be there, but some people in the Autodesk download page's user comments seem to be having some luck. Anyone here had…
Hello, I don't know when this happened but I realised that my graphite modelling tools are not showing anymore.

Does someone…
Ahh yea, warp mode, I thought you meant transform mode. I don't know of any other app that has those specific warping handles. The convert to mesh and manipulate is probably the only good option inside of 3dsmax. That would be pretty cool! If you find good work around, definitely post it! But I think you already came up…

I have been working on a flooring tile sculpt but using several cube meshes. My sub tool palette looks like so: Now that I have finished sculpting, I want to combine all these sub tools into one mesh so I can sculpt cracks etc across multiple slabs. The problem is, since each slab has nine sub divisions, using the "Merge…
Have you tried using the good old Unwrap tool? It's in the upper left of the UV editor. Select your UV's, hit the tool, and drag the control widget to interactively unfold. I find doing simple projections and then unfolding gets me 90% of the way there, with some manual cleanup or aligning to U or V afterwards. If the tool…
