[MooMProductions]

Could someone help me? just send a message

So basically i bring up the RMB menu and click edge and when i go to move it it effects the model and moves the oppisite ends slighlty its not like an orange line it would be yellow at the top and gradient to a dark red

I had a question, I just finished duplicating a special object to mirror with. I'm making a tank and trying to make the body of it, I found out that I needed more points to add on to make more of the frame but wasn't sure how to add more points to an object, can you help?

[ChargerDude70]

Thanks so much for theses videos....But how are you deleting the entire object? when I select it and delete, it leaves one side of every object I delete. TIA

[BookOfMorman]

For anybody with the trouble that you are selecting the entire shape rather than the single edge, try hitting b after you select the edge. It turns off the selection of the entire shape and puts it to what "WorldofLevelDesign" has his settings at.

Thanks for the tutorial but why does my transfer gizmo appears very short in length. Not like the one which is houwn on the video.

[juanfjimenez9]

thx a lot without you i canot even move the camera, lol. but you explain the same thing 1 and 2 adn 3 times

[Greatdictator]

Can anybody tell me why i cant see the little dots when i go to faces mode ?

[RedofYellow]

Why is it that when I click edges or faces etc. all the edges get selected and when I try to move the edge or face or vertex that I selected it moves the whole object?

Please help.

[Latmachu]

ARGH!! Maya won't let me fiddle around with the corners with the move button once i've selected them the shape is stubborn. Anyone have any ideas??

[HikaruNoIkaros]

nvm, I found out about the problem, I had the B key on. silly me :P

[HikaruNoIkaros]

when i enter component mode somthing weird happends, liek when u choose vertex you can only more one edge and the rest of the cube will stay put, but on me the whole cube is moving, like if i try ti move just one edge up, the whole cube moves up. how can I fix this? <.<

[Brygelsmack]

Maybe I should watch the entire video before commenting... Sorry.

[Brygelsmack]

Hi. I'm following this series to the letter, but when I add a cube it won't let me draw the shape like in the video, it just adds a small cube at the middle of the grid. What can I do to fix this? Thanks.

[covertgamer10]

go to create poly primitives and then uncheck interactive creation.

[webbypictures]

yer question: i keep pressing something on my keyboard (dunno what it is) and it makes the object rounded and when i undo its still rounded :(

[HikaruNoIkaros]

@webbypictures I think you hit 3 on the keyboard, try to hit 1 on the selected object and it will turn normal

[Lolscatz]

fucking awesome, where can i donate?

[blubbabub]

thank you!

[kotonizna]

Is it possible to snap to grid in rotation?

[kotonizna]

[elpibepiola1984]

thanks man, these tuts are awesome!!

[Scraggit]

Hey.

First of all, thanks for the Tutorial! But, i got a problem too. When i want to select a face, Maya selects the whole object and i can move only the whole, not each face by itself. Did I change some preferences or what am i doing wrong?

[Tewkii]

[KGGPR]

Hey! I got a problem. When i right click i do not get up edge, verex face and so on.. I get Isopram, surface point :( can someone help me?

[UltraSoftwareReviews]

@KGGPR It's because its a NURB.

[ThePhoenixdreamangel]

I am currently in a Intermediate 3D class, sadly the last class was for beginners and over a year ago, well over a year ago. Because of life and such I was unable to do it till now. And now I remember almost nothing, vague ideas. This is really helping and I'm so glad you are kind enough to do this. Its alot of work.

I appreciate it. Perhaps I will upload a video shot of my Greecian Temple of Artemis project for you later. DO you have a tutorial on modeling people?

[lucasatum]

didi you have time to make a tutorial, how to model a M4A1 ou any assault weapon?

i want to make my game ^^ thx man

you are the best ^^

[ThePj5000]
