22 Jan 2007If you just want to render in Max I believe you can animate your character in Maya and then port it over to Max. I have not yet tried this, but it is all about geometry caching, which is new to Maya 8.
If you do have Maya 8 I suggest looking at the documentation for geometry caching. I went to an Autodesk demo of this, where they were showing integration between apps. Once the geo is cached you can delete the rig and you'll still have the animation 'baked' to the mesh.
Hope that is useful - as far as I know there is no way to port rigs over. -
ELEMNT 52 posts22 Jan 2007hey guys thx really for this comments
i want to be more spesific with you ,,
actully the client wants me to do everything in maya then send him max file at the end with all of about the project so they can be availble to do what they want after they get the all files for max.
am gonna make rigging and shaders lighting texturing modelling and rendring i guess,,,,
but really i asked alot of guys but all saying same thing ,, that i only can convert the mesh and the texture ,, if any body has some good idea plz lumme know
bye -
22 Jan 2007I think you you'll just have to say no to your client... it's just not possible to smoothly port over everything. You can do a lot - mesh, textures, even animation data if you know about the FBX file format. But you can't transfer rigs... they are two totally different programs.
