I just started with Maya and your tips are super helpful for newbie like me. I'm working on a project and you made it much easier and smoother to handle!

Holy crap the double outliner and 2d zoom is exactly what I need for what i'm doing right now. Thank you so much! How did I not know of these already.

Liked the soft selection!

Wow amazing. These short precise clips are the best way to learn. Double outliner and soft selection tips are amazing 🤩

the last soft selection helps a lot!! never thought that kind of setting

the double outliner 👍

yes, i'm waiting for your uploads like a god damn child!!! thank you

I already knew all these except for the double outliner (I've seen it but never got the use for it before and now i will save my life!) and the 2d camera that is going to help me while editing the scene from the render cam.. and even if it was just 2 it made the video definitely worth watching so thank you and please make more of these tips videos!

I had an issue with moving fingers and the last tip you guys showed was given few weeks ago from my mentor. There is so much cool tools inside of Maya! Keep up the good job!:)

Great tips! Thanks

just watched this and the first thing that came to my mind as a creative use for soft select patterns were water ripples :D

Double outline blew my mind. Wish i knew this months ago

This is so helpful.. I am studying Animation and this is really gonna change how fast I can work!!

Really useful video. I never knew about the double outliner, about to rig a sniper rifle with all its internal components so should come in handy then. Thanks. Also the soft fall off I tend to find useful for curving a cycliner inwards to form a tyre and it maintains the extrusions on the plane

for the soft selection, i combine a plane(with some subdiv) onto the mesh i wanna deform then warp the curve accordingly after that, it gets useful when you need specific points to scale or move things but you dont wanna bend it too much

the soft selection one blew my mind lol

the soft sellect surface option just blew my mind, after painfully trying to do the volume method for lips for a few months lol

awesome tutorial. can you guys do one showing some tips on character Quick Rig tool and skin weighting in Maya?

Attribute and component spreadsheet is gone in LT, fml, I really liked controlling my skinweights in that. Might be in bonus tools. Speaking of outliners, selection sets for your skinjoints, very yes.

Thanks keep it up we need more like these video

no need for double outliner; with your pointing finger clicking on the left mouse, (holding the pointing finger click) drag the mouse wheel with the middle finger and place the thing where you want.

Soft selection sculpting in the metaverse.

I always thought the double outliner was just a bug, but this is really useful!

it's great I love your tutorials.

I've combined the double outliner and pure ref while I'm working on props. Pop the second outliner, put pure ref over it, and there is no way that I'd accidentally click it while working. Thank you gents!

That Soft selection stuff is crazy.

hi I have been watching your videos of a long time and i have learned a lot but I'm a bit of stuck in slump and not getting any ideas how to be productive again any tips to be practice or exercises that can break my slump or anything you guys do when you can't think of any modelling ideas?

I wish there was a way to "mask" soft selection fall offs in Maya.. i guess similar to the linear fall off and radial fall off in modo. We have deformers but it would be nice to have a mask on soft selection.

Thanks man 🙂

is the tilde a standard hotkey? for me it doesn't work. hell, even selecting the tool in the top row doesn't do anything. tool doesn't seem to be activated.

So goooodd

Any chance of a video about baking in Substance Painter from Maya, especially on hard surface stuff. Finding it difficult to consistently get decent bakes.

Question! I make a model of a 2d image in Maya with the Modeling Toolkit quad tool but is there a way after finish modeling to auto fill the other half of it

What are you thoughts on Modo vs Maya? I see you guys use both so wondering how you would compare the two in terms of strengths and weaknesses?

thanks, god

What's the difference in using 2D zoom vs. orthographic views?

why i couldn't move scale with my mouse?

About outliner, you can have multiple completely independent outliners, just in one of your window to panels->panel->outliner then Panels ->Tear off copy There was a bug in maya 2017 or first 2018 that everytime you opened outliner in floating window it opened as new instance but they finally fixed it :) and about 2dzoom it is not tylda key but back slash key :) www.google.pl/search?q=tylda+key&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiWndbtqvLZAhWDbZoKHfBECyYQ_AUICigB&biw=1463&bih=736 www.google.pl/search?biw=1463&bih=736&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=-ICsWrnKHcWn6AS25oygCA&q=back+slash+key&oq=back+slash+key&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0j0i7i30k1j0i8i30k1j0i10i24k1l4.3126.3912.0.4624.4.4.0.0.0.0.68.256.4.4.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.4.254...0i13k1j0i8i13i30k1.0.yN1gt-siNxw

That camera zoom one. You said it's for matching reference, so can't you just go to the front view and match it from there? Sorry I still dont understand the purpose of it

i work everyday with locked cameras and didn't know the trick for that. thanks

I just started using Maya 2 Month ago and since I have been working as a movie editor I soon wanted to do camera movements and video renders. As far as I´ve experienced so far Maya on Windows doesn´t really output any form of movie file that actually works. Avi is mostly an empty container and mov doesn´t even show up. Maya 2016 - on Autodesk Support Page - had an Option for rendering an Animation from fCheck to Mov - but this only worked for OS users. Right now I am stuck with rendering the frames and putting them into my "prefered" movie rendering software (Premiere). It works. But I think it´s kind of a long way to go. What are your experiences with rendering to movie? Is Maya even the Software for doing that stuff or is it mostly used for still image production?

Yas! Moar plz! :D

Sad story that we still have to use the attribute editor for multiobject changes. :D

How to enable orthographic view in Maya.

The Studio I'm applying for brings me here to re-learn Maya over Blender because they said it was Industry Standard and they can't accept Blender User. wtf

I've been waiting for years that they add a 2d zoom into Modo... whenever I suggest it on the forums the reaction is something like "well why would anybody need that?" : \

There are not tips, but basic Maya functions. Attribute spread scheet... as a tip, seriously?
