Maya :: Importing CAD Into 2014?

Jul 18, 2013

I am about to start work on a project that will require me to import between 200-300 CAD models created with Solidworks I believe and provided to me in the following formats:
 
.STEP
.STL
.IGS
.SLDPRT
 
with most of the files being in .STEP and .SLDPRT format.
 
What is the best way to import these into maya 2014 OSX?

Maya :: Mental Ray Missing In 2014 SP4

Feb 26, 2014

I have installed Maya 2014 SP4 at home, this is a fresh install and was just trying to see if there are any problems with the new SP before I install it at work.
 
But for some reason, the install went OK, but when I looked under the Render settings there is no MentalRay, and then looking in the Plugins list, there are none there either?

Maya :: 2014 - Grease Pencil Not Working

May 19, 2013

So since I have had 2014 installed grease pencil only worked once and I have not changed anything. It just worked all of a sudden one start up, but prior to that and since it has not worked at all. Everything opens (the menu) and when I add a frame and select a brush that all works, but when using the mouse or Wacom tab it will not paint anything. I even upgraded to the latest drivers for the Wacom, but like I said the mouse wont work either.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Importing Excel 2013 File Into 2014 DWG?

Jul 8, 2013

When I try to attach a 2013 Excel file into a 2014 drawing I get a message 'You have selected an unsupported DGN File.  Only V7 and V8 files are supported.'  Cannot attache through the Import command either.  I know in past versions you could insert the file and any changes made to the file appeared to the attachment in the drawing.

Is this no longer possible?  Surely not, it is way to handy.  What am I overlooking to make this happen?

Maya :: 2014 - Render Settings Tabs Are Blank

Jan 22, 2014

Just installed Extension for Maya 2014 SP 1.
 
When I open a fresh scene, load MR and go to Render Settings my Quality, Indirect Lighting and Options tabs are not working.  Quality is minimised to the top left and the others are blank.
 
I've tried the following :
 
- Uninstalling Mental Core
- deleting all prefs, scripts etc
- deleteUI unifiedRenderGlobalsWindow;  buildNewSceneUI;
 
Attached are what I see in each of the problem tabs and below is all output from the script editor as I open Maya, load mental ray and then click on each tab in turn.
 
file -f -new;
// Warning: file: D:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2014/scripts/startup/rememberViewportSettings.mel line 43: Active stereo does not work with Aero enabled. Active stereo has been disabled. //

Maya :: 2014 Move Is Selecting Other Objects Instead Of Moving?

Jul 8, 2013

We are just trying out Maya 2014 and seem to have found a little problem that we cannot seem to work around!

If we say have two object and we select one of them, if we then try to move that object along one axis, it moves a very small amount and then selects the other object, but neither move any more, if we unselect the second object and then try to move it again the same thing happens.

We are using a Wacom Tablet as the main pointing device and all three butttons are set right, and we have also tried a mouse and this does the same. We do have a 3Dconnexion Space Pilot Pro also connected but this has been disconnected to see if this caused the issue somehow but without it connected the issues is still aparent.

Works fine on 2013 no issues at all, but the problem just seems to effect the move tool in Maya 2014.

I have checked that soft selection is disabled and it is? maybe I have inadvertedly hit a shortcut sequence to switch something on or off, but cannot find anything else amiss.

Maya Animation :: Ghost Clips In Trax - 2014

Nov 6, 2013

Previously in 2013, you were able to identify you clip ghost joint set and your master controller separately.  HOWEVER, in maya 2014 there is only one option and that is "Set Ghost Clip Root".  This works on HIK IF and only if you select the root FK controler, yet I've not been able to get it to work if I'm using a custom rig as the joint is driven by a transform (i.e. a nurbs curve).  , using a reference character seems out of the question with anything related to trax and clip sequencing if you want to use the ghosting options.

Maya Modeling :: 2014 Vertex / Point Snapping Not Working?

Oct 14, 2013

I'm having a problem with Maya's vertex/point snapping function. This is a simple thing to do normally but in the 2014 student version (which is full functionality other than having a prompt saying it is a student version upon saving the file), it isn't working.

Basically the process is making a selection of vertices and with the transform tool active, MMB dragging the manipulator to snap the selection to a destination vertex. The pivot point/manipulator of the selection is moving and snapping to the destination vertex on it's own when I hold 'V' and MMB drag, rather than the whole selection moving with the transform manipulator and snapping to the destination vertex. This problem is also happening with the modelling toolkit which is really annoying. I have checked that i'm not in edit pivot mode etc.

The point snapping is working however for objects, but not in component mode as above.

I am running Windows 7, Maya SP2.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Importing Dwg Files Into Maya

Jul 23, 2012

We have maya 2012 and autocad 2013. Does direct connect 2011 allow you to import autocad dwg files into maya? If not, has Autodesk updated direct connect as a maya/autocad plug in so we can use dwgs between the two programs? I can't get support to answer this, they keep saying "we monitor the forums, ask there." So, here goes! Autodesk ought to take a lesson from zbrush, who imports/exports with one button now!
