Maya :: How To Use SDKMESH Format
Feb 21, 2013
I currently am porting all my engine code from "XNA" to native C++ DirectX 11.1 for Windows Store App's and my question is basically what format does the industry use for Exporting their models (animated/skinned) in Maya to use with their game engines that are on DirectX. I preferably would almost think writing a Wavefront .obj imported in c++ would be the best route to take as its the native format in Maya for exporting models correct? Just looking for some insight before I attempt to roll something up here. I see Microsoft seems to want to use the .SDKMESH format which they have a loader for in their DirectX TK toolkit but I HIGHLY doubt Maya supports exporting in SDKMESH format. They also have a tool for converting FBX files to SDKMESH so I guess that is an option if I want to have to export in FBX then convert to SDKMESH just to see something not export/convert correctly with all those paths of resistance.

I'm new to Maya and the 3D design environment. I'm going thru the online tutorials and built the sample Greek temple. I have a MakerBot replicator 2. I did convert the Nurbs to polygons for the column bases and the temple roof. I exported the individual pieces to obj format to print. My question involves the export of the roof/torus group. The "roof" is not smooth but slightly faceted (I'm not using the correct jargon here I'm sure). It's kind of tortoise shell like in smoothness. What do I adjust during export so the rood object comes over smoother?
I'd attach the roof file but the site doesnt allow for some reason.

What is the best export/import format for sending 3D files. I need some neutral format files, possibly Solidworks but I am not sure. Also any export settings to make sure I get decent quality files.
Nothing like getting a surface model when you want solid model.

We have a computer that using AutoCAD Architecture 2013 and Acrobat 9 Standard. When printing a large sheet (30"x42") with images in it to a PDF the images do not appear in the newly created PDF. However, if the same file is printed to fit an 11x17 the images display correctly. Any thoughts as to why the large sheet size is not printing properly?

I am working on a 3' x 10' banner with 300dpi in Photoshop and it takes all of my time to do the extra tools to do, and it takes 10 minutes to save it or more. I have powerbook and CS6 on me. I put the highest memory in Photoshop preference. So I am bearing to work with it for hours for one small assignment, but why does it takes so long? is there a better way to do to save time and speed to make the poster banner to look greater than life? even in 200 dpi?

Edited slightly a picture from the camera and saved it in PSD format.
Then went into that PSD version and found out that the patch tool would not work on that format.
Saved from that PSD into JPEG and on the JPEG version, the patch tool does work.
It's strange if that's so, since it is in the documentaion that the PSD format is the only one that supports all PhotoShop features (the best format to work with).

I have a file that I created in Adobe Illustrator that is in EPS format. For some reason, when I open the file in Photoshop, the colors are incorrect. Blues are still blue, and greens are still green, but they are the wrong shades. It doesn't happen when I save the file as a .ai file, but I want to be able to use a .eps file.

My Boss wants me to plot a map of the US on our company plotter. I know how to do this, except I do not have a file of a map.The one that is in the "Samples" folder does not open, and shows a message of invalid file. I downloaded a file and it does the same thing.
I am using version 2006 (and content with it) on Windows XP (also content with it).

I have been putting together a birthday cadr for someone and adding layer after layer with many his res images etc., I have saved the beast in the default PSD format and it weighs in at a massive 388,963 KB. Photoshop doesn't let me save in any other format, ie JPG or PNG, even after flattening the layers and reducing the image size.
Is there an threshold in terms of size that limits the output file type? Any way forward so I can save as a JPG or PNG ?

I have been asked to create a logo for a client of mine and I have been asked for it to be made in vectors format? I believe it has something to do with, if the picture needs to be stretched to a bigger size, it will not loose any quality.
Well this is what I am getting confused with, Photoshop already seems to stretch things fine, without loosing any image quality, I have not had a problem with that before?

How do you export from coreldraw to illustrator without it cutting up compound paths?
Currently if you have text that has been converted to curves, all of the letters with counters (or holes in them like O, P, B etc) get cut in half. Surely there's a way to stop this?

I am trying to export file to CMX format, but the software won't accept it, probably because X6 is too new. I used to be able to import, but I do not remember if it was X4 or X5.
I chose "Save As", and in there I can only use old format if I am saving as CDR, but as CMX I won't get any option about saving in old format.
(btw, the other software ONLY accept CMX and the very much inferior WMF..)

When exporting a graphic in a TGA file format, you have a choice of either "normal" or "enhanced". What is the difference between the two.
EDIT: I guess my real question is. Is there any "visual" advantage of "enhanced" versus "normal", or is it just "unseen technical data"?

Well I had to re-record it from tape. I was wondering because I have never done such a long one, what may be the best settings as far as bitrates trying not to loose any more quality than necessary.

I have bought a new HD Camcorder. I understand that I need Blu-ray disk in order to burn my movie to HD format.
I am using the VS Pro x3 program. Before the burning process, in the "Create Video File" step, I have (among the others) the Blu-ray template, the AVCHD template and the HDV template. Which one of them I have to choice?
In the DMF 7se the output format of Blu-ray disk is BD.

I need to make a few videos and then use those to make another and then use that to make yet another.
Is there a best (or better) format (avi, wmv, mpeg, flv, etc) for doing this to have the least loss due to the reuse or is there some trick to avoid loss (other than mastering everything in one project from the originals)?

My main camera saves AVHCD files at 29.975 fps, secondary camera saves mov files at 25 fps, and third camera saves mpeg-4 at 30 fps.
I often wonder if I should just convert all the source clips from all three to one single format for editing, as perhaps it would be easier to ensure the audio and video stays in sync, and it just seems the right way to work.
What would the optimum format be for me if I started doing this? HDV? Actually I want two answers - best compressed format, and best uncompressed format.

We have a very old AutoCAD program that works great for us. We have new designs that are coming in but not in the old format of LEGACY. Even the .AI format is not usable. Without the Legacy format our CAD designer has to do his best to match up the work but it does not come out the same.
How can we take the PSD files (usually created in CS2 or CS3) and convert them to Legacy/Illustrator format?

I have encountered with a Photoshop TIFF image.
This image is a CMYK 8-bit TIFF - no layers - everything very basic (so it seems). I place this image as a link into Adobe Illustrator, then save this resulting file as a PDF.
I open the PDF with Adobe Acrobat, then I use Enfocus Pitstop to check the properties of the image. The Pitstop Inspector tells me that the image is indeed CMYK, but it contains only 1 channel and the image is "Indexed".
When I try to output this file to a printer, I only get the Cyan channel. It seems that the Magenta, Yellow and Black channels are "hidden" or something similar.
Throughout this entire process, the image appears on screen (in all applications) as a full colour image, ie, I get to see all of the channels - not just the Cyan channel.
I have found that if I save the original image as a Photoshop PDF or EPS, everything is fine.
I have also just completed another test and found that if I change anything about the image size (eg change from 300 dpi to 299 dpi) everything is also fine.
I am not able to attach the image, as it is too big for the 200KB restriction of this site, and I cannot compress it that far.
Has any body heard of this type of thing before?
