plus...maya isnt just for animation while motionbuilder is...which means it's much more robust than maya when it comes to animation

I belive you can, but again you are restricted with what you can do as its a non commercial licence.
Go the the Alias website and sign up for Bronze Membership, they have great tutes and bronze membership is free and they cover exporting from Maya to Motionbuilder. This is done by the FBX convertor. I think there is one available for Maya 7 PLE

lol sa i can't try out motionbuilder since i'm not using PLE... and isn't it illegal to transfer files from Unlimited to PLE or vice versa?Originally posted by errethakbe
it should be noted, however...you can import maya files into the PLE...but you can only export the maya 7 PLE file format...you can reread it in your Maya if it's not PLE. But you can keyframe and render animations on in Motionbuilder.

you can't export back to the full version, however. you can import the full version file format.
So you can export to motionbuilder PLE from your maya, you just cant export back to your version of maya. Only the PLE maya.
