Hi guys. How hard would it be for me to switch from 3dsmax to Maya? I've used max for 3 years but I am getting into animation and want to switch to maya.

I have a odd issue with Maya. I imported geometry form MODO, exported with FBX. I have done this before, and things worked fine. Now i am trying to do it again, and i am not able to see the geometry. I go to the outliner, and press A to get a view of the object, and i might see it for a second, and then it goes away. Its too fast to click on it. Im just wondering how do i get the geometry to import into Maya via FBX and use it like i used to. Thanks!

Change your camera clip planes to something larger or scale the model down. |

Thanks for your reply! The problem was that when I imported in the model, the scale was too large. I also found out that in the perspective view, the visibility is cut off at a certian distance. It seems that when looking through the camera, this is not an issue. Anyways, I am happy that I can continue my work and have faith in the modo+ Maya connection. Thanks! |

Thats what i mean by the camera clip planes. if you select the camera and open the attribute editor. in amongst the attributes you will see references to near clip and far clip. if you make them both larger you will see your model without clipping. this is probably the best way rather than scaling as your model will stay at the right scale (1:1).
Hope this psot makes sense im on the phone here |

![]() Hi!
I am sorry for my English, but I try to explain my problem with saving file in Maya. I just finished my character modeling and disided to save the file. I saved this , but in that time Maya was closed and I think my file did not saved. But I know that there was Incremental Saves ( I saved often) and when I opened my last saved file, I noticed that only part of geomenty was in the scene. I looked at all folders of Incremental Save and all files ther were broken. ( only part of geomenty was there, not my last model) Is some way to restore my last file? with my finished character model? I hope you understand my question.. |

![]() HI.
I'm learning Maya now. I wanna make Vertical Orientation of Input and Output Connections in Hypergraph as default, but I can't. It's possible? Every time after closing Hypergraph this value resetting, and when I will open it again and turn on Input and Output Connections then I will see Horizontal Orientation. And I must go to menu again and choose vertical type of orientation. Simple and stupid problem, simple and stupid question but it makes me really crazy. Google doesn't talk to me, I didn't find the answer. Please help. |

![]() I'm having a perplexing Extrude problem. Attempting to extrude 3 faces that are all beside each other, I've got 'Keep faces together' ticked and history is on. As soon as I click extrude each of the faces splits and then becomes it's own extrusion.
To put this in context, I'm trying to widen some feet on a character model. But I'm getting three tentacles instead coming out of the sides. Thank you to whoever can help! |

Maya noob here!
Hi guys,
Just trawling for some useful hints-n'-tips, and seems as if I'm lucky hitting this thread from the get go. Because I'd only picked up a student licence the other day (Maya 2016) in so doing was pretty psyched initially sinking my teeth into something BIG! however first things first...I anticipate getting to grips with the UI will be a priority for the moment at least. Although I've experience with another 3D DCC suite so not unaware each tend to have their own individual quirks which hopefully in this instance the learning process won't have to many bumps in the road. Anyways I'll get back to reading Cheers. __________________
