Maya Modeling :: Deleting Extra Mesh?

May 24, 2011

from what I understand, mesh cleanup fixes problems with bad geometry. but is there a function by which I can delete all edgeloops in a mesh that don't contribute to the shape? so Maya turns the mesh into as low rez as possible while retaining the shape....

Maya Modeling :: 2D Slices Of Mesh Model

Jul 8, 2013

I bought a 3d mesh model of a chair I want to make out of wood. To do this I want to use Maya to create 2D slices of the mesh model that I can use as templates for my woodwork.

The model looks great in Maya, but how to create these slices or 2D views and print them.

Maya Modeling :: How To Combine Extruded Faces As One Mesh

Mar 3, 2011

I am using maya 2011. I have a simple roof, which i extracted faces from the small house (see pic1). However, when i smooth the roof, all the extracted faces went smooth individually (see pic2). How can i combine all those individual faces i extruded, to make into a single mesh or polygon, so that when i press 3, it will smooth like as in pic3 rather than individually.

Maya Modeling :: Splitting Mesh Based On Material?

Apr 15, 2013

I do sometimes buy some objects at Turbosquid that I download as .obj files.

They are represented as a single mesh object in Maya, however when I look the material of this mesh, I see different tabs representing the different sections of the mesh with the different materials (e.g. a duck would be seen as 1 mesh, but 1 material for the body, 1 for the left eye and 1 for the right eye).

How to split up this mesh in different meshes by material ?

Maya Modeling :: Edit Mesh And Cylindrical Mapping

Oct 20, 2012

I'm using Maya 2013 and I can't find "Edit Mesh" at the top of the window. I've found this page (

but it refers to Maya 2012. The second problem is:

I'm trying to put an image on the cylinder-surface. I've found a youtube-video (added bellow) which says I have to click on "Cylindrical Mapping" after making a "blinn2" (and so on).

But when I click on "Cylindrical Mapping" nothing happens. There isn't even an error message.

Maya Modeling :: Created A Polygone Shape Using Mesh

Dec 12, 2011

I am stumbling through the lessons and am stuck on Lesson #1.For those who do not know, it is to model a helmet similar to a dirt bike helmet. I have created a smoothed poly, removed much of it to create the top portion of the helmet (or cap).

I have created a poly shape using the Mesh >> Create Poly command. I have extruded said poly 3 times to shape the front facial guard.

The next step tells me to use the bridge border edges command. My problem is only my "cap" is showing a border edge. The facial shield poly has no border and I cant figure out why?

I have tried Display >> Polygons >> Border Edges and it doesn't make a difference on the facial shield.how do i view the border edges on said poly?

Maya Modeling :: Use Fill Hole For Empty Space On Mesh

Aug 27, 2013

So I am trying to use "fill hole" for this empty space on my mesh but it isn't working.  I know I can figure out another solution to this problem but I want to know why it won't work.  

First of all, when I double click the edge around the hole it doesn't just select the hole, it selects a huge ring that goes around the whole head for some reason (I'm attaching a picture). 

Then when I select the edges around the hole one by one and select "fill hole" nothing happens and I get a message at the bottom of the screen that says "polycloseborder2" (I am also including a pic of this).

Maya Modeling :: Mesh Partially Changing To Wire Frame

Feb 12, 2013

I have been working on a head model on and off for a couple of days to practice extrusion methods, I have been working with smooth shade. When I went back to it yesterday I came across this problem - Anytime I went to extrude/bride/append/soften normals etc my model the part I was extruding would turn to wire frame and an unrelated part of the head would change to wire frame also. I am mirroring the mesh down the middle; sometimes the mirrored half is changed to wire frame also, sometimes not.

As I didn't know how to fix the issue I reverted to an earlier save I had made before the affected areas had been built up. Now I have nearly finished getting back to the same point I was at yesterday I'm coming across the same problem.

Maya Modeling :: How To Combine And Mesh Vertex From Middle Of Object

Sep 7, 2012

I have problem when i duplicate polygon another side of model. The object is not smooth, it look like different model. I try to "combine" and "mesh" vertex from middle of object. but it still same. The polygon will smooth if i use "smooth tool". But i need low polygon for transfer map from high polygon to low polygon. but it not work, because low polygon look like different model.

I need smooth low polygon, but not to much smooth. I need only when i duplicate polygon, it not look like different model is okay.

Maya Modeling :: How To Reduce Face / Poly Count Without Distorting Mesh

Aug 3, 2012

I have a mesh that is made up of all quads and is a pretty dense object. I need to reduce the number of faces so can make it easier to work with and edit.

Whenever i use the reduce tool it takes my mesh that is all quads and distorts it to create a mesh that looks like the second picture above. How can i reduce my face or poly count without distorting my mesh so badly and keep only quads.

I thought they were supposed to appear when the Polygon shelf is selected? I don't see them. In fact, when I select different shelves the menu items on the right half of the task bar don't change at all. Is this normal?

This is Maya 2011 on Mac OS X Lion.

3ds Max Modeling :: How To Clean Up Mesh

Feb 16, 2014

Is there an easy ways to clean up a mesh so that its easy to skin ? i am working with the mvu default mesh.  someone told i have to remake my own body then redo the uvw map to match.  Unfortunately i don't have the skills to do that currently. 
 
My end goal is to increase the poly count so that my clothing look smooth and still be able to skin it easily. Mesh smooth just causes more problems.

3ds Max Modeling :: How To Shrink (not Scale Down) A Mesh

Nov 17, 2011

I'm missing a shrink tool or modifier which can shrink a mesh. I don't want to scale it down because it's preserving the proportions but that is not what I propose to do.

The Shell modifier for example extrudes the polygons along their local normals. This in reverse I'm trying to do.

Think about a banana and you will get a copy of it in a smaller and thinner way because you have modelled the shell of the banana but not the flesh in it. I think that explains the difference between shrinking and scaling.

3ds Max Modeling :: Slicing Mesh To A Grid

Nov 8, 2013

I have a mesh which is derived from a heightmap. It represents the water surface on the terrain. I need to tile the mesh so that I can apply each piece to a separate terrain tile in the Unity game engine.I'm working in meters so I guess just importing the mesh and converting to meters on input would set up the mesh extents correctly. The mesh will be square covering the entire world extents.How do I set up a grid and slice the mesh precisely along that grid? Are there any methods in Max, or any scripts? It would also useful if I could scale the mesh in the Y (height) axis to change the span. How to do that?In addition, I need to delete parts of the mesh. The triangles will always be along the same plane- for eg, any triangle on the plane in the pic. Is that possible? I don't mind editing manually, but I'm wondering if there's a more quick way to do it.
