Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

StyleXP takes no resources !

You may also look into StyleXP which costs the same as WindowsBlinds which is a memory hog (!!!)

StyleXP uses WinXP system to set distinct schemes:

you may look at the many schemes here:

Black UI - no additional software used

You can make it darker but I like this tone

here's what my screen looks like. The only thing that bugs me is the light grey (almost unreadable) node names in the channel box... wish I knew how to change that... *nirsul hint hint* : )

There's also a Discreet reg fix that will put the same sort of scheme on your computer without having to run a special app. You just install it into your WINNT folder and then you can choose it by right-clicking on your desktop and choosing it as a scheme. Check over around Discreet for it. Just gives you greenish greys and dark dark greens, almost black user added image

Red bellows of flame have blackened my stones
Convulsing my frame and cracking my bones
Hell's dragons of steel who roar in their chains
Crawl into my caves to suck out my veins.....

great. I tested 3D Color Control and DisplaySet, of which I recommend the latter.

This has enabled me to get rid of the annoyingly bright 3D highlights and to achieve a cool 2D look : ))

like so:
