Maya :: Missing Sprite For Smoke Dynamics?
Jan 23, 2013
When attempting to apply a Smoke Dynamic to a piece of geometry I am getting an error about missing a spritesmoke.mel.
Here is the log read out.
// Warning: file: C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2013/scripts/others/spriteSmoke.mel line 84: A sprite file must be specified as the Sprite Image Name in the options box. A default set of images and Readme.txt file of instructions are on the Maya documentation, lessons, extras CD in the directory Gifts/smoke. //
When applying the Smoke Effect, I also get this warning readout:
// Warning: Texture file Smoke.0 doesn't exist, node file4 //
// Warning: Texture file Smoke.0 doesn't exist, node file4 //

I have an existing Sprite .png file. There are a bunch of images contained in the Sprite and I want to change the color of one image on the sheet. I don't have the layered PSD.

way to use the slice tool? So it like wraps around anything that has color, kind of like using star wand and then selecting inverse, but with the slice tool. Because I have a sprite sheet with a transparent background, and it has to have 200+ sprites and it would be much easier if there was some sort of way to do this.

PDN fans this is my 1st post and i was wondering if this can be done in my favourite image editor...?
I need a easy way to mask a .bmp(sprite) image like this... to this a sprite with mask...
I was just wondering is there is any plug-in to achieve this ? The reason why is im trying to make a game in Just BASIC and i would love to do all sprites in PDN.

I have a PNG of sprites similar to this:
[URL].........
I want to change the background color to a transparent one. I've tried using Color to Alpha but that makes the sprites themselves partially transparent which is not what I want. My second attempt was to use the fuzzy select tool to select all of the white bits and remove them. This doesn't really work either because on a non white background each of the sprites has a few whitish pixels around it's edge. So what I really want is a combination of the two, i.e. all of the white pixels are made completely transparent, and the whitish pixels on the edge of each sprite are made partially transparent, but the sprites themselves remain opaque.

I need to separate elements in a sprite sheets, such as this:
I hope that there is a method for this in Gimp so that:
1) The canvas of each layer/file will be the same
2) The elements in each file/Layer will be synced so that it looks good animation wise.
It's for Game Maker so if you've tried that and your experienced with Gimp then you should know what i need

For some reason, every panel is now missing it's associated menu bar. I've tried doing research for a command to restore them using a MEL command, but to no avail. I did nothing to remove them in the first place.

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?

I've got a large set of icons as symbols. Is there any easy way to just export all the symbols either as individual files or as a sprite sheet?

Is it just me or has undo gone the way of the dodo in the stabilizer module? Please can it be resurrected. It is incredibly useful for when a track goes wrong and you just want to try a different tracking point. As it stands I now have to go back into the animation channel, select shift, select delete, delete keyframes and then retrack.

I've got a window to hammer the machine for a day! In an action schematic I know I can save selected nodes and media. I now want to load those saved nodes into another action but the load tab won't open to give me the options of load all, add nodes, add nodes & media.

About 1 in 3 times I start up Maya 2012, some of the shelves are either missing or are empty. For example, sometimes the "Polygons" shelf is completely missing, or else it is there but its contents are empty. If I close Maya and restart it, then they shelves will load up fine. Is there any fix to this?
I delete my preferences and start with new ones. This is a very fresh install, and I also had this problem with a previous install of 2012. And it does load up correctly sometimes so the preferences should be correct...right?

I just downloaded de Maya 2013 bonus tools, and when I use the auto unwrap tool, the buttons that used to cut, select, continue even cancel dont show; but the "click area" still works, the problem is to find it
In Maya 2012, this plugin works fine unfortunately I dont have access to that version anymore.

What's up with the Show Manipulator Tool in Maya 2014? On my system, the tool is not showing up in the toolbar. There's just a blank spot where the icon used to be. The tool is still accessible via the General Shelf.

I cannot get the tapered brush effect when I check the Shape Dynamics box.
Usually it automatically tapers the brush, but it just is staying round.
Have tried re-installing,
I am using CS4 64bit

I want to disable Brush Dynamics for all brush sizes. I tried going to the Brushes window found on the top right of Photoshop and disabling it. However, if I change the size of the Brush, all changes become undone. What do I do to make the changes permanent?

I just received the wacom intuos 4 and find that the pressure sensitivity with CS4 no longer works I have gone into brush presets shape dynamics and set the first option to pen pressure but the shape of the brush does not show any change (eg tapering at the ends) Is there a special setting that must be used to activate the pen pressure effect with CS4. I never had to do tis previously.

Even when selecting a default brush my brush stroke is not at all similar to the shape (slowly widening and then tapering off 'ie default preset') even when shape dynamics is turned on, as you can see in the photo. I'm certain it's not due to my tablet, as the sensitivity works fine in other programs. I am currently using CS5.

Have CS3 on XP.
I am trying to get a pen stroke that starts out thin...gets normal size in the middle...and then shrinks back down to a thin line at the end.
In brush dynamics... I am able to get a thin ending on a stroke but not a thin beginning. Im using the size jitter control set to fade at 300 to get a line that fades to thin OK at the end...but I cant make the beginning thin!
I am trying to stroke a curved path for Christmas designs...scroll kind of looks...thin beginning...fat middle...thin end.
