@TheManikArts Yeah sorry man, this is 1 of my early tutorials, if you watch some of ours on PolygonCore they are much better! Hope you can still follow it mate.
Hey, awesome tutorial, helped me get around alot easier. However, as I was trying to discover new tools and such, I lost my axis during rotations and scaling. By that I mean, I can't scale an object just on the X axis side or rotate an object the Y axis. Do you know how I can get it back to normal?
@MajorBlackmore Yeah if on your object its not in the center go to Modify > center pivot, if its upside down lets say on your model double click the scale tool and make sure its axis is world. Sometimes the axis do get messed up and its because of doing a lot of extrusions or scaling so no need to worry.
@aaronh678 I think I explained myself a bit bad, let me try again.
Basically, what I meant is that the axis themelves are kinda "gone". I can't scale down or up either of the axes nor rotate any of the axes. The only thing I can is scale up and down the general size, as in the whole thing, but I cannot scale the X axis to make a rectangle for example. I can only keep the cube as a cube, just in smaller and bigger sizes. Sorry if I was a bit unclear in my first post, but thanks for helping me out
@bowserking64 Alt + middle mouse button to pan around your scene, Alt + left mouse button to rotate around your scene and finally scroll middle mouse button in/out to zoom in/out.
@bowserking64 Your welcome, and no problem don't apologise :), if you want to see very good and in depth tutorials go to my new channel it will help you a lot! New channel = PolygonCore, thanks :).
@JayneeRae Thank you but I have moved to a new channel where I will redo my Maya basics and fully complete it, haha adorable? No way :p. Thanks for your comment :).
How do i make so I don't have to drag out a cube when Im pressing the cube button. You just press the cube button end it pops up in the middle of your scene. I have to drag it out and decide the height and width.
@aaronh678 Done that but nothing happens :( Only way for me to do it is to double klick the cube icon and klick "Ok". Then it creats a cube in the center.
Thanks for the videos..I'm a Blender user and have decided to switch over to Maya 2012 because of the huge number of extra tools available...Keep the tutorials coming..Also can you make a series on how to make a complete game character with normal texutres, skinning and animation as well? That would be really helpful since there's very few tutorials like that for 2012.
@asifrockstar3000 I will be doing mate on my new channel which is .com/PolygonCore , and I think you will like Maya a lot more then blender when you get used to it :).
@Samarizer Do not worry subscribe to .com/PolygonCore I will be doing new tutorials on that which are very good for beginners you will soon learn how to use it trust me!
@NyahCha Hey well I could but only MSN, if you have changed it around and can't get it back go to \user\my documents\maya and delete it, then reset Maya and go to Display> UI element and tick off help line, command line, range slider and time line. Hope this helps!!
@darkkelvin3 A big difference 3Ds max you have to do a lot of things on before you can edit the face, vertex or edges, lets say for example I made a cube in max before I could maniuplate the face, I need to turn the cube into a polygon object then select its face, whereas in maya you can just select the face straight away. Max is much harder then Maya and I would recommend Maya over Max.
@aaronh678 And do u run into a problem sometimes where the scroll moves VERY slowly in Maya but works fine on like a web browser? this just randomly happens to me and im forced to reset my computer
@32Skott Yeah I have had it and I've had a lot more problems with Maya and stuff it can be very annoying, unfortunately I know nothing about Maya errors, stuff like errors with a code and stuff look on google it always helps :).
Hope the volume is OK and speaking is clear, I had a few problems on my UV mapping tutorial (just now) that the sound was to low, so I have had to increase it which could make my voice unclear and increase background noise, sorry.
How do you make, the cube?
