Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

hatched faces after beveling
I have a problem with hatched faces after I beveled some edges. I used targa/jpeg files which I applied to the object and everything is fine exept those little faces created from beveling. they just don´t want to be textured - only show up those white stripes. maybe someone can give me a hint what to do. Is there a limit to the size of a face (very small faces) which can be applied with texture?
I would be happy if someone can help me, cause I really don´t get it - thanx in advance!

I´ll keep it in mind for the future.
in this case it was a matter of the render-software
at least I think it was
-> with maya software i got stripes,
-> with mental ray they vanished..
have nice time!

in fact I don´t even know what dmap is...
tried to find that (-> kick me in the nuts <- ) item somewhere in the menus, but - I can´t say if I have it on.
I post U some 3 pics.
but my next problem coming up is -
the bumpmap i created in photoshop for the pumpkinhead is divided equatorialy aroud the head. in PS I just layed the texture_pic over the exported UV_snapshot like with the other I created before - don´t cared about cropping around the UVcoords. thing is - the UV_coordinates have been setup in a strange way - not from top to bottom but from eyelines to the back of the head. I wonder if I can manipulate this UV_setup.
until now I didn´t find a solution - means I have to take a closer look on the settings from the other PS_bumpmap i put on before - oddly enough it was the same UV_snapshot with a similar bumpmap like the actual one and -> it worked fine. (arghh)
here are the pictures
and tell me if it bores U by getting from one noob thing into the next.
thx for your help!

but out of my rudimentary understanding for maya -
I try to work with it since two weeks now -
I´d say it was only a matter of incorrect UVmapping.
otherwise I probably couldn´t fix it..
next thing is creating the smoke, I have no idea what to begin with.
didn´t find any good beginners tutorial anywhere in the net.
so I guess I´ll start with the maya helpfiles.
i post U a pic what I´ve done so far.
