@Shrogg. I love your rig, as it's the only rig out there. But I need you to help me fix issues with maya software. My animation is at a complete halt, and i'm not prepared to move to mental ray anytime soon.
I just got Maya this week and am completely clueless on how to do anything. I managed to get the rig up, but how do I give it a texture and animate it?
Hello! I downloaded the rig, and couldn't find out how to actually skin the thing with the char.png... I'm a little new at this, so could you help me?
You have to hold right click on the model and select attributes. Then a sidebar will show up. Near the top of the sidebar should be tabs. One of those should have a half black sphere saying phong above it i think. Under the picture it has all these things you can modify with sliders. Look at the color one, first one, and to the right of the slider there should be a button. Click it. Scroll down a bit and select your file where char.png is.
I don't think you need Mental Ray. Mine turns out fine. You need to change filtering to off at the same screen I was talking about with the post above about the half black sphere and phong.
so @shrogg, can u possibly post another video as to how to export a minecraft world into maya? I know that minecraft has changed a lot since your original video of how to, and there have been some problems with mcedit and things...
thanks,
Shrogg, this is very important!
How do you render out an animation video with mental ray!? I know you render it out frame by frame or something like that, but what do you do from there?
Hopefully you can help soon!

you need to change the menu set to render then go into render and batch render it, after that i think go to file then something, email me and ill tell you later, im in school right now but i can explain it to you later when im in maya "[email protected]"

There are plenty of tutorials and guides on youtube, go take a look
(I might actually make a tutorial on my channel thinknig about it...I want to do more animation and modelling stuff and tutorials on my channel...check it out here: http://youtube.com/AtomicTim7)
If you were to make a vid on that or maybe on keyframe animation, then i would be very happy
I'm a bit confused on fixing the texture of the skin. I can get to the hypershade and select the steve_skin just fine, but where is this "[>]" (Or [<].) I can't find it any where. Help?
Is it possible to remove the beard and one eye. I want to import my skin into the rig but the beard gets in the way and my guy only has one eye since the hair covers half his face.
But mental ray is so amazing!
Watch that video
