Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Help - a new character
When I convert from NURBS, to Poly, and then finally to Sub-divs, and then move the verteses in Sub-divs, these cracks form on the edges of the model.
It only seems to be when I move the finer verteses (1 and 2) rather than the coarser ones.
If someone could help me I'd really appreciate it! I don't know if it's my settings, or what I'm doing in NURBS and poly mode, but this is kind of getting to me.
Thank you!

Go to the hypergraph and check for 'blind data' nodes, they are subds built up history nodes, just delete them. Also hit 3 on your keyboard...
Any more probs just shout...

Oh, and what Maya program do I have to get that doesn't have the watermarks? It's rather difficult -- for me -- to model with them there... -shrug-
Thanks again!

the watermark can be a little intrusive but the software is free after all. The only way to get a watermark free copy of Maya legally is to purchase it from one of the resellers.
If you are a student and can prove it, there is an educational version which is exactly the same as the commercial one but you are forbidden to make profit from it and it is a fraction of the cost (around £300 instead of £5000 for Maya unlimited).
Take it easy,
Mat.
