[luismorathc1]

Hi. I really think that's impressive! Great work!

I'm still learning maya and I would like you to accept my video response of a video using simple lights. Thanks in advance..

[highsatjumper]

can anyone tell me where transfer maps tool is in maya 2012? i can't find it at all...

[vishbush]

which graphics card supports viewport 2.0??? i have a nvidia 9500gt and it doesnt seem to support viewport 2.0. As of now my system specs are Core 2 duo 2.8 ghz, 4gb ddr2 @800mhz, nvidia 1 gb 9500gt graphics card and a intel dg31pr motherboard.. Sad configuration i know.. but i bought it back in 2009. Someone please reply me as soon as possible

[hasTee77]

@vishbush I guess it's GTX support this stuff.

[vishbush]

@hasTee77 i'd like a more clear and definite answer :)

[ElloImPie]

umm is there a cheaper software that is still exceptional? like something that i can make movies with for the fun of it without using $2,000?

[sttate]

@ElloImPie They should really have a far cheaper version that doesn't give you a license to make a profit from it. I think that's what the money's really being spent on, the license to use it.

[ElloImPie]

@sttate so what does that mean?

[sttate]

@ElloImPie It means I think that the reason it costs so much is because you're paying for a license to use Maya for movies or games that make a profit, so they could probably do a far cheaper one that doesn't give you a license for hobbyists.

[ElloImPie]

@sttate oh so do you know of any that may be in a lower price range?

[sttate]

@ElloImPie Well there's Blender which is free.

[ElloImPie]

@sttate yes i have heard of it, but is a good software? for cartoons and stuff? i wanna make them for the fun of it but whenever i try they do not have a exceptional value of graphics, like not good 3D and stuff like that, in my price range i can go up to about $700 to $800 bucks, anything in that range?

[sttate]

@ElloImPie Well, here's a couple of things that have been produced with it:

/watch?v=eRsGyueVLvQ

/watch?v=QbzE8jOO7_0

/watch?v=YE7VzlLtp-4

[ElloImPie]

@sttate links dont work :/ repost with working links please :)

[sttate]

@ElloImPie Just search on youtube:

"Sintel"

"Big Buck Bunny"

and

"Blender siggraph 2011"

[ElloImPie]

@sttate well their all great quality, but is poser 9 better? are there any videos using poser 9?

[TheUnknownD]

[4100robster]

[staylor3d]

Just Awesome!

[vimalraju]

great stuff!

[av3nger3]

I am glad I learned a little bit of Maya years ago...from the PLE..Personal Learning Edition.

[bassage13]

hey, this has nothing to do with the end of the world!

[xalener]

The maya is augmented.

[tehnoobinroblox]

I never asked for this...

[iiiaaammmmowl]

@tehnoobinroblox i love you

[AstragonGame]

@RedofYellow Sure, you can use GoZ plugin that you can find in ZBrush site.

[RedofYellow]

Can you import Zbrush files?

[MichaelChin1994]

[GunSlingingGames]

im getting sick of looking up maya 2012 and scrolling through a bunch of apocalypse bull shit

[syntaxed2]

@GunSlingingGames hahahahahaha oh man, i was just thinking the same thing

[jaybirrd84]

@GunSlingingGames awwwww

[Doublicon]

Adam walks up to that bike like he's a pimp.

[SacrificialIrishGoat]

What video card did autodesk use in this demo?

[Cruz76ss]

How about you solve the problem with view ports mirroring and the view cube freezing before getting fancy, what is the point of more powerful view ports if they are all plagued with game breaking bugs.

[toonplayer]

can you make a animation then put it in unity3d ?

[mepain1]

@toonplayer Yes. You can. :) MAYA + Unity3D is pure gold. Am I rite? :)

[MethelinaPills]

@mepain1

Jo man, true, true!=)

[bluemime86]

This is the last version of Maya. seems like Autodesk believes in the 2012 Mayan prophecy.

[gooforeva]

@bluemime86 AHHHhhhhh, Good one!

[onlycicala]

@bluemime86 Maya 2013 will come out before December 21

[sttate]

@bluemime86 Where have they said that?

[Safegold008]

Deus Ex! :D

[naborghsoj08]

of course this is better than 3ds max...i've tried 3ds max from 2009-2012...the only contender for maya is houdini/softimage

[SrNutritivo]

I hate the fact Autodesk software (Maya, Softimage and Max) only run fast and stable with ultraexpensive Quadro cards when Modo, Cinema 4d , Zbrush and other software runs perfect with Geforce and Radeon ones.

[yonicute]

so my machine got:

4gb ram--AMD Turion x2 ultra--ATI Radeon HD 4650 1gb-- Windows vista(sp1) 64bit

its a laptop( HP Artist edition 2 ). So do you think i can use Maya smoothly?

and is Maya better than 3Ds Max and Cinema 4d? someone help me please :D

[rocknroll980]

@yonicute yes it can run maya smoothly, yes it is better than 3ds max(I hate 3ds MAX), but I dont know about C4D. you ever used blender?

[yonicute]

@rocknroll980 oh yey for me LOL... no im a beginner,i just want to make short animation clip for my projects, is blender easier than maya? or vice versa.

[BLACKBINLATIN]

MAYA FTW

[kjetilbirtles]

What are the specs of this computer + graphic card? It looks to good to be true.

[Olibabas]

I feel like a playblast is enough and we dont nid to render in layers and all.

[microbin1000]

Its great...but older version of maya. if saved or import, it will not readable by previous versions. As i tried with "HTM_GNL_Head_Topology Zombie - Maya Binary File (.mb)"

[Olibabas]

@microbin1000

Have you tried to check ignore version when importing your scene?

If it doesnt work, have you tried opening the file as a script and change the maya xxxx to the year that you have.

I am using 2011 now, and I cannot import my file cuz it was made using maya 2009. I changed the scipt and it works perfectly, hope it helps



[surferadi96]

Is it better than 3DS Max ??

[amorgan17]

@surferadi96 It's way more commonly used in the industry then Max. Can't say I've used max but I assume Maya is probably better if it's the chosen program for most mo graph houses and animation studios like Dreamworks. Do you know Max?

[surferadi96]

@amorgan17

i dont get ur question..

[amorgan17]

@surferadi96 Do you know the program Max? I don't see how that was hard to understand lol.

[amorgan17]

@amorgan17 sorry.. 3DS Max.

[surferadi96]

@amorgan17

well i just started it a few weeks back...so iam just a beginner ..

[amorgan17]

@surferadi96 I'd look into learning Maya instead of 3DS Max if your a beginner. If you knew a lot of Max, that's different but if you looking to invest time into learning a program.. Maya is probably the way to go. That's if your interested making a career in the entertainment industry because they use it more.

[Kap13Videos]

the depth feature will be pretty useful

[Vikramthewhite]

HEy autodesk i got a question for you.. Does the Viewport 2.0 require an insane computer to handle ? or have you guys optimized

[RikkTheGaijin]

Does it support Vertex Color and Vertex Alpha?

[y50p]

3:25 "enable the screen-based anti-aliasing".. :P I thought you've enabled anti-aliasing already, I guess you meant to say Ambient Occlusion. This is official Autodesk channel with such mistakes?

[SupaPoopaScoopa]

@y50p Who would have known, we are all human.

[darthsadic]

Oh I want it now!!

[TheTargetView]

what i'm asking myself, maya becomes more and more like motionbuilder ... is it still recommended to use motionbuilder for animation or does maya become a second motionbuilder ?

[TheArchangelsk686]

hah, you guys of course realise that this type of viewport existed long since before this, its a plugin for maya called furryball :) oh btw, i wonder what was the configuration of this pc, since you can achieve same results on a flame artists several hundred thousand dolars pc, with real time rendering

[maryusph]

@TheArchangelsk686

yea and it works only on winshit ... no mac or linux support from furrycrap

[TheArchangelsk686]

@maryusph

Tell me about it. I had to buy a new pc just for the purpose of making a comercial with furryball, i was on a tight schedule.

[JimdeBrouwer]

Nice! when is the release date?

[DonBurroni]

best thing since raytracing

[TemplarOfNight]

Epic !

[mmanojraj]

AWESOME........
