Maya :: How To Export FBX File With Point Cache
Apr 20, 2012
I need to export FBX file with point cache but everytime I try it is the same error
"The FBX plug-in cannot export the Geometry Cache for the following reason(s): No set is selected for geometry cache export, the selected set is empty, or the selection set is applied to the shape node of the object instead of its transform node"
before that , I create my cache , and my set with all the geometry but after selecting and saving it as a presset my set just disapear. i need to do it on maya ... I have done it already on MAX and works fine.
PD: I have attached two images to explain better my problem, because my english is still poor.

I am having real trouble exporting a rig from 3ds max to maya.
This is the rig as it looks in 3ds max, perfect, exactly what it should be. [URL] ....
When I export it to fbx it looks like this in maya (and opening that same fbx file in 3ds max I get similar results) [URL] .....
What I need to do to successfully export a fbx file that doesn't mesh up the rig.
To download the models I'm trying to export [URL] .........

backburner is a good tool, but it doesnt always work as expected... everything that is not an image is simply ignored while sent over the network. hence problems of "missing map". (and the server does not render anything if anything is missing) be it an audio file, or anything else. like the point cache file. max has no problem to send the XML file, but will not even look at the MC that is linked. those particular ones are giving me a very bad time dealing with them.
is there a way to trick max into baking point cache into a vertex animation or something ? (i know maya does it, but i never found a way for that in max) or maybe tricking backburner into sending EVERY files related to the max file. also, the "save as archive" doesnt take it eighter. i suspect someone forgot to implement it in the function..

I have been searching for a macro to export the start and end point of a line coordinates to excel, but I can only find information on how to export 3D Points.
Is it possible to program a macro that allows me to export the start and end point of various lines in a sketch?
The objective of this is to connect an excel file which is updated when I create a line with it correspondent points, then i could not only import these x,y,z coordinates from excel to inventor but I whould be able to update my spreedsheet whenever I change my sketch.

For some unknown reason...CS2 has started placing "Adobe Bridge Cache" file shortcuts on my desktop. When I click on one, I receive a Win XP error message that says the file .bc is unkown and can't be opened.
These shortcuts have never appeared before. Now the simple act of opening Bridge and looking at jpeg files seems to initiate it.
Questions: Why is PS doing this? Do I need to pay attention to it? If not, how do I stop PS from cluttering up my desktop.

After saving a file as, say, an 8x10 @ 240 resolution, I want to save the image as a 4x5 @72 resolution in a different file that I can give to someone on a CD. However, the new file seems to retain the 240 resolution at a dramatically reduced size so the CD gets a too-small image (and the recipient doesn't have the software to gross it back up to a 4x5).
I assume this has something to do with cache, which I've tried purging generally and also for the individual file. I have CS6 on a Mac Pro with ample disk space and auxiliary drives to store old files, also with plenty of spare space.

I have noticed that a file is xrefed much faster if the file has been opened at some point. (Wtih the file I tested with it was 45 sec vs 1,5 sec) This must mean that the file is cached and can very quickly opened later if it has been opened.
I have an application that xref other files as overlay xref's. This is very slow since the xrefed files haven't been opened. And it will be this slow every time i xref them since they are never opened. Is there a way I can cache the files manually or something like that?

Recently I reorganized my system so that my image files were on a different drive that I had previously been using a backup drive, so no additional file copying was involved. When I ran Lr it did not find any images, as expected, at the original location and I told it where to find them by pointing it to the new parent image folder. That worked fine but then it seemed as if all of the previews had to be rebuilt on the fly by Lr as I went to each folder. Could it be that the previews in the preview cache are location specific to drive/volume level rather than just folder level ? Or is there a way to aim that ole preview cache at the new image locations ?
Likewise, would this apply to the ACR cache too ? i.e. if I point Lr at the same images in the same folder names on a different drive, will the ACR cache data still be relevant or should I just scrap it and start again ?
I told Lr to rebuild previews for many of my images and it did so overnight, but now the preview cache is about 30GB instead of about 12GB. It's possible that I picked up previews of images that were previously not in the cache, but would the new cache still contain previews of the now non-existant images at the old locations ?
I have previously reverted to system backups in which the whole drive volume had previously been been copied intact. Lr always worked fine in those situations. Is my present problem because I shifted the images folder relative to the drive volume where Lr is running ?
I'm using Lr 3.6 on a 2011 MacBook Pro with Mac OSX 10.6.8.

We are just trying out Maya on the OSX Platform.
In the tutorial that we are going through, we are asked to select 2 curves, center the pivot point, and then hit the 'Insert' key to allow us to move the pivot point, and then holding down the 'C' key we should be able to move the pivot point along the curve.
Looking around we found that if you hit the 'fn + left arrow' keys you are meant to get the same as using the 'insert' key on the PC, but this is not right, and also when you try to hold down the 'C' key it does not allow the pivot point to be constrained to the curve.
So where is the 'Insert' key on the Mac?

I am puzzled about how to zero out rotation my object's pivot point when I rotate said pivot point using the "insert" key (on a pc). Furthermore, any subsequent object I make after that has its pivot point off just like the first object when I rotate its pivot point. In fact, even when I start a whole new scene, the pivot point rotation of any object is off just like the first time I rotated the first object's pivot point in a previous scene.

I was wondering if there is a way to create a group of vertices, edges or faces and somehow create a reference point or attach them to some kind of locator so they can be referenced at a later point. I want to be able to select a group of edges, model them and then move on to another task within Maya and have some kind of reference point so I can go back to the original group and not have to select them individually every time I want to work on that group of edges, faces or vertices, is this possible? I will post a picture shortly to this post so you can see an example of a specific group of edges that I would like to set a reference point or locater for.

I have an issue with the student version of Maya 2013. This issue is reproducible in my environment when I try to align an edge to a snap point pressing the V key and move the edge with the move tool. May 2013 hang then and I have to close it ending the task in the task manager.Many times I deleted the Maya folder in my documents folder in order to start from the scratch, but it hangs again if I try the procedure i described above. Some times it take more time until Maya hang, some times after a few moves.I have installed Maya 2013 many times from the scratch, deleting before all the directories in the different locations (as described in an Autodesk paper).I have to run Maya 2013 while I need to export my files with an exporter which just work in the 32bit version of Maya.
In the Event log viewer from Windows 7 x64 there are two records during this hang:

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.

I can't seem to export any geometry to .fbx. Not even a simple sphere. The script editor reads:
file -force -options "v=0;" -typ "FBX export" -pr -es "C:/Users/showme/Desktop/test.fbx";
// C:/Users/showme/Desktop/test.fbx //
But no file is saved. No problem saving .mb to the same directory so it's not a folder-lock issue. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the complete Maya 2013 package but to no effect. I need to export to .fbx in order to get the exact camera position along with my geometry to modo.

i want to export my maya files to STL for rapid prototyping. I googled and found out that only plugins can export to STL format, i found out that a tool called multitool can it, i installed it, but how to make it work.
I tried going to File> export i saw a file format called STL_DCE, i'm not sure if this is the correct format of STL that i need.
i want to ask what can i use to export to STL so that i can send the model for rapid prototyping. And if there any requirement for the model for it to be sent to be rapid prototyped( like does it need to have any criteria )

I just recently downloaded maya. And I made a simple model for a game I am making. I am trying to export it to a .obj file, but when I go export, the .obj file type is not listed in the drop down file type menu. I have already enabled and objexport plugin with the plugin manager, and have tried restarting maya. The object I am trying to export is just a simple cube with a sloping face.

This is a pretty basic function in the Graph Editor.
All I want to do is copy some keyframes at one point to farther down the timeline IN the graph editor. Basically, select some keys, move to a new time and paste those same values. When I paste, all it does is add keys to the existing curve. I haven't used maya in awhile (2008 version), but I'm PRETTY sure this function was available. Why doesn't it work in 2011?
I've searched online, I've tried copying, moving to new time, create some keys, select them and then paste over them, but still doesn't work. And yeah, I know about the middle mouse button time slide trick, which is a workaround but doesn't work if you're copying multiple keys over time. I want to be able to do this BASIC function. What's the deal? On a Mac.
